Glossary
Alt Port
An optional port found on the backplane of the SuperSmart hub. A
BNC, AUI or fiber-optic module can be installed in the ALT port.
AUI (attachment unit interface)
A 15-pin interface specified by the IEEE 802.3 standard for connecting a PC,
server, or other device to an Ethernet transceiver or Media Access Unit
(MAU).
Daisy-Chain Port
RJ-45 port 16 of the SuperSmart hub. When the daisy-chain switch is
set to OUT (e.g.,
), Port 16 can be used to connect the SuperSmart
hub to other compatible hubs in a daisy-chain configuration.
Ethernet
A network communication system developed and standardized by
DEC, Intel, and Xerox, using baseband transmission, CSMA/CD
access, logical bus topology, and coaxial cable. The successor IEEE
802.3 standard provides for integration into the OSI model and
extends the physical layer and media with repeaters and implementa-
tions that operate on fiber optics, broadband, and twisted-pair.
FlexBus 1500 Ports
STP ports found on the backplane of the SuperSmart hub labeled BUS
IN and BUS OUT. These ports are used for linking the hub to other
compatible hubs using Accton’s FlexBus 1500 STP cable.
LED
Light emitting diode on the front panel of the SuperSmart hub used for
monitoring a hub or network condition. A LED display corresponds to
a hub condition.
