OVERVIEW
The MR-9000TPT Multiport Repeater can connect up to eight twisted
pair segments to a network segment of the same or different media,
or you can use the MR-9000TPT as a stand-alone repeater for up to
eight twisted pair segments. The MR-9000TPT can
•
transmit re-timed data packets
•
regenerate preambles
•
extend collision fragments
•
automatically partition problem segments
•
automatically reconnect non-problem segments
The MR-9000TPT Multiport Repeater incorporates Cabletron
Systems’ LANVIEW
TM
monitoring and diagnostic system. LANVIEW
gives a visual indication of problems such as power failures,
collisions, and cable faults. LANVIEW can alert you to a problem
condition, and indicate the nature of the problem, which streamlines
troubleshooting.
