Here are some important cabling rules to follow: · Computers should never be connected directly together on a network. They should always be connected to a hub. · The maximum cable length from a node to a 10BaseT or 100BaseTX repeater, switch, or hub is 100 meters (328 feet). · Only two 100Mbps Fast Ethernet hubs can be cascaded, (or uplinked), together. To cascade more than two 100Mbps hubs, a switch must be used. · The maximum distance between 2 100BaseTX hubs (or the Analog Router and a 100BaseTX hub) without a switch is 5 meters (16.4 feet). · The maximum distance between 2 10BaseT hubs, (or a 10BaseT hub and an Analog Router), is 100 meters (328 feet). 8
