OVERVIEW OF THE FOT-F3
FOT-F3 USER’S MANUAL 1-7
1.3.4 Application
The FOT-F3 can be configured into your network in many ways.
For example, in Figure 1-3, a fiber optic link segment (4) is
attached to a Cabletron Systems Multi Media Access Center
(MMAC) (5) with a FOMIM-32/36/38. The MMAC serves as an
intelligent repeater hub that links the fiber optic link segment to
other network segments, regardless of media type. The link
segment is attached to the FOT-F3 (3). An Ethernet device, such
as a workstation (1), is connected to the FOT-F3 through an AUI
cable (2).
