Overview
Allied Telesyn’s AT-TS90TR is a 10BASE-T switch with 100BASE-TX fast
Ethernet access. You get the benefits of high performance 100BASE-TX
technology while maintaining your investment in existing 10BASE-T
hardware and software.
Allied Telesyn’s AT-TS90TR 10BASE-T Switch with fast Ethernet access is
an Ethernet-to-Ethernet smart switch with eight (8) IEEE 802.3 10BASE-
T Ethernet ports for connecting to ethernet hubs, concentrators, devices
with high bandwidth requirements, or other DTEs.
In addition, two (2) 100BASE-TX Ethernet STP/UTP ports are available
for high speed server or backbone connections with port A, one of the
100BASE-TX ports, also available as an alternative 100 Mbps,
autosensing full duplex, MII Port connection. The MII port lets you
connect a Fast Ethernet tranceiver to the switch letting you use different
types of transmission media, such as fiber optic.
