The following illustration is an example of how to connect four EtherFast
10/100 Auto-Sensing hubs together using the Single-Port 100BaseTX
Distance Extender Module. Note that, without the distance extender mod-
ule, the maximum distance between two uplinked hubs is 5 meters (16.4
feet). With the distance extender module installed on one of the hubs, the
maximum distance becomes 100 meters (328 feet). Only one distance
extender module is needed for the long-distance uplink to be activated.
