Network Reliability
To ensure network reliability, each hub monitors their ports for signal quality
and automatically disconnects stations transmitting excessive noise, reconnect-
ing them when the problem is resolved.
The hubs automatically truncate data packets that exceed the maximum length
for IEEE 802.3u, preventing a device from blocking the network by transmit-
ting continuous data streams or extra long packets.
The 8-port and 16-port FriendlyNet hubs are ideally designed for small- to
medium-sized 100Base-TX Fast Ethernet networks and comply with the IEEE
802.3u Fast Ethernet standard.
Features
