Netelligent 3000 Manageable, Stackable 100 Mb/s Repeaters
Key Concept: Scalable and manageable high-speed network connectivity
Compaq Netelligent 100Base-T repeaters are designed according to the IEEE Fast Ethernet
standard, a 100 Mb/s technology based on regular 10 Mb/s Ethernet. Even though Fast
Ethernet increases transmission speeds by a factor of 10, it uses the same protocols and
methods as 10 Mb/s Ethernet, making it easy to migrate to the higher speed technology.
Netelligent 3512/3612 repeaters are stackable up
to 5 units high for a total of up to 60 ports. An
optional Smart Uplink Module™ allows the
repeater or stacks of repeaters to overcome the
distance and repeater hop limitations established
by the IEEE Fast Ethernet specification.
Managed repeaters, such as the Model 3612,
provide information via SNMP and RMON
(groups 1,2,3, and 9), which lets you reconfigure
the repeaters directly from an access port,
through the network, or by remote modem.
100Base-TX repeaters are designed to work with
Category 5 UTP copper cable. Each repeater
contains a modular power supply that is easily
removable and replaceable. Dual load sharing
backup power is available for each repeater by
adding a second “hot-swappable” power module
(allows repeater to run continuously while one
power supply module is replaced – no other
competitors have this capability on a “per-hub”
basis). This product was the winner of the
Internetwork Magazine
award for the “Best
Stackable Hub” category honoring products that
best exemplify the state-of-the-art in stackable
hub products.
•
12 ports per repeater, stackable up to five units high to allow for future expansion
•
Extended topology for repeaters and stacks via the Smart Uplink-Module
•
RMON management capability (groups 1, 2, 3, and 9)
•
Units within a stack can be segmented onto one of five backplanes to reduce network
congestion, or on an individual unit basis for maximum efficiencies
•
Modular power supply and modular dual power redundancy on a “per-unit” basis
