Chapter 3: Configuring the Network

The HP ProCurve 100Base-T Hub 8 allows great flexibility in configuring
your network. You can use it in a standalone or multiple hub configuration.
Some of the common applications for this Fast Ethernet hub are described
in this chapter.

Standalone

This hub can be used in a simple standalone configuration as illustrated
below. In compliance with IEEE 802.3u standards, the maximum cable
distance between the hub and any workstation is 100 meters for twisted-
pair cable.
