Configurations
The illustrations in this chapter provide some examples of possible network
configurations using CentreCOM AT-3012SL, 3016SL, 3024SL Multiport
Repeaters. These examples are not meant to be exhaustive and may or may
not fit your network’s requirements. For consistency, the examples show
AT-3012SL units, but any combination of the three models may be used
interchangeably.
Figure 9 illustrates connecting an AT-3012SL to a thick Ethernet backbone
supporting 12 10Base-T Ethernet segments.
