1 - 2 ONline Ethernet 24-Port 10BASE-T Module Installation Guide
The ONline Ethernet 24-Port Module is an IEEE 802.3 repeater module that
complies with the 10BASE-T standard. It connects up to 24 devices (PCs,
terminals, printers, modems) to the ONline System Concentrator.
The 24-Port Module (Model Number 5124M-TPCL and Model Number
5124M-TP) is a bank switching module. Bank switching is the assignment of
a group of 12 consecutive ports to a single network, or to an isolated
network.
Note: You cannot assign individual ports on the 5124M-TPCL and
the 5124M-TP modules to different networks.
Module Features
The ONline Ethernet 24-Port 10BASE-T Module:
❑ Is an IEEE 802.3 repeater module that complies with the 10BASE-T
standard.
❑ Connects up to 24 devices (PCs, terminals, printers, modems) to the
3Com ONline System Concentrator or ONcore Switching Hub.
❑ Provides high port density at a low cost per port.
❑ Supports up to 100 meters on 10BASE-T-compliant unshielded twisted
pair (UTP) or shielded twisted pair (STP) wiring.
❑ Features “hot swap” capability so that you can install or remove the
module without having to power down the concentrator.
❑ Provides bank-switching capability.
❑ Provides a user-selectable autopartition threshold for flexibility in
dealing with collision-related network slowdowns.
❑ Allows you to disable Link Integrity so you can connect to equipment
that does not conform to the 10BASE-T standard.
