ARTISOFT NOW SHIPPING TWO NEW EXTERNAL HUBS FOR 10BASE-T
NETWORKS
Promotional Bundle to Save Resellers up to $159
(TUCSON, AZ -- Dec. 5, 1995) -- Artisoft, Inc. announced
today that it has begun shipping the Artisoft(R)
T-Runner(TM) II Hub-8 and Hub- 16 external hub/concentrators
for use in 10BASE-T network installations. These IEEE
802.3-compliant concentrators are compatible with major
Ethernet environments, including Artisoft's LANtastic(R)
network operating system, Microsoft's Windows(R) 95 and
Novell's NetWare(R). Regular MSRP pricing is $229 and $459
respectively for the T-Runner II Hub-8 and Hub-16.
"Our resellers and small to mid-size business customers tell
us they want networking hardware that's simple to set up,
affordably priced and built to the same quality standards as
their LANtastic software; these hubs provide just that,"
said Artisoft Vice President of Worldwide Marketing Bill
Peterson. "Because these hardware products adhere to
industry standards, Artisoft customers can use them with the
LANtastic family of products or with other major networking
products."
PROMOTIONAL BUNDLE
For a limited time, the hubs will be available to resellers
in a discounted special bundle with Artisoft's
NodeRunner/SI(TM) 2000/T adapters, the UTP version of the
NodeRunner/SI Ethernet adapter family. Resellers will be
able to save $99 (off the MSRP) on the T-Runner II Hub-8 and
a five-pack of NodeRunner(R) 2000/T adapters when purchased
with a five-user version of the LANtastic network.
Resellers will save an even greater amount of $159 (off the
MSRP) on the T-Runner II Hub-16 and a 10-pack of NodeRunner
2000/T adapters with the purchase of a 10-user version of
the LANtastic network. These promotional bundles will be
offered through Artisoft's distribution partners as long as
quantities last from now through Jan. 31, 1996.
FEATURES
The T-Runner II Hubs allow users to easily expand their
networks and share computer resources. The T-Runner II
Hub-8 will connect up to eight client or server PCs,
portable PCs and print servers via its RJ-45 ports.
The T-Runner II Hub-16 will function in the same way, except
that it will connect up to 16 devices.
These passive hubs comply with the IEEE 802.3 10BASE2,
10BASE5 and 10BASE-T Ethernet standards, and have the
capability to cascade to other hubs, giving users even
greater flexibility in expanding their networks. The
T-Runner II Hub-8 can be daisy chained to other hubs via its
10BASE2 thin coax port or its eighth RJ-45 (10BASE-T) port.
The T-Runner II Hub-16 will connect to other hubs similarly,
through its 10BASE2 thin coax port, its 16th RJ-45
(10BASE-T) port, or its AUI (10BASE5) port.
Easily set up, the hubs increase network stability by
maintaining connections, even when a faulty node is
attached. The hubs support auto partition and reconnection
to isolate faulty nodes and collision activity. In
addition, each 10BASE-T port on the hubs has built-in
polarity detection and correction logic feature to
automatically adjust for crossed and uncrossed cables.
Users will be able to verify network setup and node activity
at a glance on both hubs via Link/Data status LEDs, which
will indicate proper operation and connection for each port.
Both hubs will also include a status power-on LED.
The hubs are designed to be set up in minutes without
software configuration. Their small size and built-in
brackets will allow them to be conveniently placed on
desktops, stacked with other hubs or mounted on a wall.
They will come with a three-year limited hardware warranty,
and free limited technical support upon product
registration.

of two NodeRunner Pro Combo Ethernet adapters at a $53
discount from the MSRP. This single-purchase promotion will
be available through Artisoft's distribution partners as long
as quantities last from now through Dec. 31, 1995.
FEATURES
Based on Intel's S82595FX ISA Ethernet Controller Chip, the
NodeRunner Pro Ethernet adapters use one-third the power of
other Ethernet adapters, while providing superior
performance for high-powered PCs. The NodeRunner Pro
Ethernet adapters increase network throughput by using
concurrent processing, an early transmit and receive
technology.
The NodeRunner Pro Ethernet adapters are further enhanced
with a 32KB buffer RAM, which increases performance by
reducing overhead on networks with high traffic and/or
multitasking operating systems. In addition, the adapters
include Desktop Management Interface (DMI) support for
managing network PCs with DMI-compliant applications.
These robust adapters also meet the Microsoft and
Intel-developed standard for Plug-and-Play compatibility,
automatically resolving I/O conflicts with other devices.
The software configurable adapters will support the
LANtastic network's native drivers as well as DOS, Windows
v3.x, IBM(R) OS/2(R), Novell(R) NetWare, Windows NT(TM)
v3.1 and v3.5, Windows 95, and SCO UNIX(R) environments.
These new Windows 95-compatible adapters will be included in
the total solution hardware/software add-on kits and
starter kits for Artisoft's recently announced LANtastic for
Windows 95 network, a 32-bit client and server version of
the LANtastic system.
