Product Overview 11

Using the ELH100-12/24TX hub in an application example for client/
server networks, users can be connected directly to the local network,
regardless of whether they are operated at either 10 or 100 Mbps. Up to
144 connections can be supported by stacking up to 6 hubs. Being a
Class II hub, additional 10Mbps or 100 Mbps hubs can be attached to the
stack. The optional modules provide full duplex switched connections that
can improve workstation performance in a client/server environment, or
be used to aggregate traffic on the stack to the local backbone.
