3Com 5124M-TPCL Switch User Manual


 
1 - 2 ONline Ethernet 24-Port 10BASE-T Module Installation Guide
The ONline Ethernet 24-Port Module is an IEEE 802.3 repeater module that
complies with the 10BASE-T standard. It connects up to 24 devices (PCs,
terminals, printers, modems) to the ONline System Concentrator.
The 24-Port Module (Model Number 5124M-TPCL and Model Number
5124M-TP) is a bank switching module. Bank switching is the assignment of
a group of 12 consecutive ports to a single network, or to an isolated
network.
Note: You cannot assign individual ports on the 5124M-TPCL and
the 5124M-TP modules to different networks.
Module Features
The ONline Ethernet 24-Port 10BASE-T Module:
Is an IEEE 802.3 repeater module that complies with the 10BASE-T
standard.
Connects up to 24 devices (PCs, terminals, printers, modems) to the
3Com ONline System Concentrator or ONcore Switching Hub.
Provides high port density at a low cost per port.
Supports up to 100 meters on 10BASE-T-compliant unshielded twisted
pair (UTP) or shielded twisted pair (STP) wiring.
Features “hot swap” capability so that you can install or remove the
module without having to power down the concentrator.
Provides bank-switching capability.
Provides a user-selectable autopartition threshold for flexibility in
dealing with collision-related network slowdowns.
Allows you to disable Link Integrity so you can connect to equipment
that does not conform to the 10BASE-T standard.
