Re: [luau] switch
It depends on what kind it is. Intelligent hubs or repeaters will retransmit a signal, but the cheap home network hubs don't. On Tue, 2002-01-29 at 05:16, Randall Oshita wrote: Will a switch or HUB act as a repeater? Thanks Randall

An active hub is a multiport repeater. You can usually tell an active hub from a passive hub by whether or not it uses its own power supply. -dan On Mon, 29 Jul 2002, Kevin Goad wrote: It depends on what kind it is.

Re: [luau] switch
Randall- Yes, along with active hubs, switches and routers will also act as a repeater by regenerating the signal, and it only sends data to its correct destination. (This minimizes collisions.) Some hubs will amplify the signal and send it out to ALL ports... not good :] -Elayne From: Daniel J Nishimura [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [luau] switch Date: Mon, 29 Jul 2002 12:12:40 -1000 (HST) An active hub is a multiport repeater.
