The FriendlyNet Dual-speed Hub

Dual-speed hubs are a compact, flexible solution for workgroups or
SOHO (Small Office/Home Office) LANs (Local Area Networks).

The Asanté hub’s compact design makes it ideal for desktop placement or rack
mounting.

The

Dual-speed

feature allows unmanaged hubs to operate in either 10Mbps or

100Mbps modes. These transmission speeds are automatically detected or can
be set manually on ports one and eight.

The stackable feature allows you to join up to three hubs, thereby forming a
network of up to 48 ports.

The FH208B/FH216B Base Hubs allow for simultaneous transmission
between 10Mbps and 100Mbps domains. When hubs are stacked, a FH208B
or FH216B

must be present in the stack — as a

base

hub

. The FH208 and

FH216 are expansion hubs and can be joined through the back panel cascade
connectors.
