Modular Design
The ONline Concentrator's modular design lets you add different media
modules (such as fiber, twisted pair, and coaxial) in any combination to
connect different types of media segments. A possible configuration is
shown in Figure 1-4. You can link segments of different protocols using
Token Ring, FDDI, bridging and routing modules.
Every concentrator requires one Controller Module that controls
communications between all modules. In addition, a Network
Management Module provides sophisticated monitoring and control of the
modules in the concentrator. As a rack-mounted unit, the ONline
Concentrator can be connected to patch panels to simplify and manage
your network cables.
