RJ-45 Ports
The
Micro 100-TX24
repeater has 24 RJ-45 ports that let you connect UTP cabling to workstations and servers in a
100BASE-TX network.
Uplink Switch
The uplink switch lets you convert the 12th port on the
Micro 100-TX24
repeater to an uplinkable OUT RJ-45 port.
This lets you interconnect the
Micro 100-TX24
repeater to another
Micro 100-TX24
repeater or other 100BASE-TX
repeater, allowing the two repeaters to be on the same segment.
IN ports use an internal
crossover
of the receive and transmit lines, enabling the port to connect to a network interface
card using standard 8-wire UTP cable. OUT ports use a straight-through (uncrossed) connection.
