To support an
in-house data local area network (LAN), the OnQ enclosures can be equipped with a 4 port
or 8 port Network Module and Network Hub. Together, they form the heart of a 10BaseT
/ 100BaseT Ethernet LAN, capable of linking up to 4 or 8 computers and peripherals.
The OnQ Network Hub is an Ethernet / IEEE
802.3 10BaseT / 100BaseT repeater with 4 to 8 ports. OnQ Network Hub Modules provide
a convenient way to interconnect personal computers and print servers in a LAN for home or
office use.
Each Network Hub module has four
modular jack (RJ45) connectors for connection of up to 8 ports on the OnQ Network
Interface Module. The Network Interface Module provides up to eight 110 punchdown
blocks which are wired with up to 100 meters of Category 5 data cable to modular jack
outlets located throughout the home or office. The Network Hub Module provides the
full functionality of a multi-port Ethernet 10BaseT / 100BaseT repeater. Ten status
LEDs are provided to indicate hub status and link activity. Each port has two
associated LEDs.
NOTE: Each computer or peripheral
product will require an Ethernet interface device (network interface card
or NIC) which can be obtained from the product's manufacturer or from a computer retailer. |
