Connecting Multiple Hubs for a Larger
Network
You have several choices when connecting networks with more than one
hub:
❏
Use unshielded twisted-pair cable to connect the “OUT”
port of port 1 to the “IN” port of another hub in a hierar-
chical topology.
❏
Use the BNC port on the hub to connect to a thin Ether-
net backbone
❏
Use the AUI port to connect to a thick Ethernet back-
bone
❏
Use the AUI port and an external MAU to connect to a
media of your choice. For example, fiber optic cable.
