Automatic Partitioning/Reconnection
If any of the ports on the EtheRx hub experience excessive numbers of
consecutive collisions, duration collisions, or faulty conditions, that particular
port can be partitioned. Once partitioned, the hub will continue to monitor that
port. If the error conditions have been corrected or a good data packet is
transmitted or received without incurring a collision, the hub will automatically
reconnect that port to the network.
Link Test
For UTP port connections, the EtheRx hub implements the link integrity test
function as specified in the IEEE 802.3i 10BASE-T standard. The hub will
transmit link test pulses to any UTP port after that port’s transmitter is inactive
for a range of 8ms to 17ms. These pulses are sent to confirm that a valid
connection exists between each UTP port on the hub and its attached device.
