-
-
- Boost the affordability and ease-of-management of your 10BASE-T network
- to new lengths with Artisoft's intelligent, internal Peer-Hub concentrator.
- This 8-bit standard 10BASE-T hub connects your network with the less
- expensive unshielded twisted-pair cable often found prewired in newer
- office buildings.
-
- The Peer-Hub concentrator works with any standard 10BASE-T network.
- In conjunction with Artisoft's LANtastic NOS, you and five others can use
- the Peer-Hub concentrator simultaneously. The Peer-Hub concentrator
- complies with the IEEE 10BASE-T standards of four concentrators and five
- segments per network. It will, with the addition of an Artisoft AE-3 adapter
- board, connect a coax segment to a 10BASE-T network, without the need
- for expensive additional bridging equipment.
-
- The Peer-Hub concentrator is more than just affordable, it takes the
- headaches out of network management. Its software allows the host PC
- to view the status of all ports and to activate or disable each port
- individually. Alarms and audit trails come standard with the Peer-Hub
- concentrator's software, so if the status of a port changes, the software
- sounds an alarm. Or status changes can be audited to disk for later
- review. And with remote access software, such as The Network Eye from
- Artisoft, Peer-Hub concentrators can even be controlled from non-host
- PCs.
-
- Plus, with its onboard memory, the Peer-Hub concentrator saves your
- network configuration. So if you have a power outage, your host PC can
- reconfigure the network because the Peer-Hub concentrator's EEPROM
- will remember each port's name, physical and wiring location, and whether
- that port is active or not.
-
- The Peer-Hub concentrator creates a complete 10BASE-T hub within an
- IBM PC, XT, AT, 386, 486 or compatible computer. It works with any
- standard 10BASE-T network, including Artisoft's LANtastic and Novell's
- NetWare networks.
