* Similar network can be configured by performing the stack connection of the stackable hubs. In this case, multiple
hubs that are connected through the stack connection are recognized as a single large hub from the network.
Therefore, unlike the cascade connection, the number of connection hubs is not limited.
* Be sure to use the Ethernet cable with category 5 or higher.
