1-2
Introduction
Features
The Model FE104 and Model FE108 hubs have the following key features:
•
IEEE 802.3u standard compliance allows interoperation with all 100BASE-TX Fast Ethernet
(100 Mbps) products.
•
Class II compliance enables network expansion by daisy-chaining two hubs together.
•
Easy Plug and Play installation with no software to configure saves time and minimizes the
potential for configuration errors.
•
Each hub is equipped with:
— 4 or 8 100BASE-TX ports to provide fast information exchange, resource sharing, and
client or peer-to-peer communication using simple Category 5 unshielded twisted pair
(UTP) wiring.
— RJ-45 ports with built-in LEDs to clearly indicate the status of each port.
— Additional LEDs to provide network traffic status for the hub.
— Normal/Uplink push button to simplify network extension. In the uplink mode, two hubs
can be daisy-chained using simple, straight-through UTP cables.
•
Compact, sturdy metal case design enables easy tabletop or under-desk installation.
