4-101
Example:
The following components are needed for a network with four nodes:
5 100BaseT cable, uncrossed
2 100BaseT hub (4-fold)
Fig. 4-80 100BaseT network with 4 nodes
Follow the instructions below:
• Use the appropriate cable type: cross cable for direct connection of two nodes,
uncrossed cable when additionally using a hub.
• Observe the maximum permissible total length of 100 m for the 100BaseT cable.
Note that this includes the total length of all cables between two nodes.
• Observe the minimum bending radius of 3–4cm(depending on the vendor).
