Welcome to the world of networking with 3Com
®
.
In the modern business environment, communication
and sharing information are crucial. Computer networks
have proved to be one of the fastest modes of
communication but until now only large businesses
could afford the networking advantage.
The OfficeConnect
®
product range from 3Com has
changed this, bringing networks to the small office.
The OfficeConnect Hub TP400, TP800, and TP1200 are
ideal for creating small, fast (high bandwidth) networks.
They are compact and attractively designed for desktop
use. These products are part of the OfficeConnect range,
which neatly stacks together with clips, providing a host
of facilities. For information on this product range, refer
to the accompanying OfficeConnect Product Range
sheet.
When referring to all three products, this guide uses the
term ‘OfficeConnect hub’.
The OfficeConnect hub is a Fast Ethernet (Class II)
repeater, allowing the creation of a network that runs 10
times faster than standard Ethernet. You can connect a
workstation, server or other piece of equipment to each
100BASE-TX port, as shown in the diagram. The TP400
has four 100BASE-TX ports, the TP800 eight, and the
TP1200 twelve.
.
Small Network Featuring OfficeConnect Hub TP400 and Server
If you need to connect more workstations, simply
connect and clip another OfficeConnect hub to form a
stack (each hub is a single Class II repeater).
This guide helps you get the most out of your
OfficeConnect hub.
