STHI Overview Active Circuitry 3 On each TCU port, STHI hubs provide active circuitry which filters, equalizes, and amplifies all received signals before transmitting them to the next point on the ring. The result is enhanced signal integrity and extended maximum station lobe cable distances. Daughter Board Upgrade Kit 4 The following daughter board upgrade kits may be used to expand STHI hubs from 12 to 24 TCU ports: • TR-UTP-UGKT for STHI-22. • TR-STP-UGKT for STHI-42.

STHI Overview 1.2.4 Hub-By-Hub Bypass Control Unless otherwise configured by a user, all hubs in an STH/STHI stack are interconnected to form a continuous Token Ring. Through Local Management, however, each hub may be individually bypassed from the continuous ring to form its own isolated ring which does not exchange data with the other hubs. If an STH is bypassed from the main ring, the STH module will not receive data-dependent services such as statistical tracking and bea

STHI Overview Improved Protection from Beaconing 1 By utilizing multiple Ring Out TCU ports, users can provide enhanced reliability for existing networks which use passive MAUs because Ring Out TCU ports allow for the separate attachment of each MAU. Rather than daisy-chaining MAUs together as a single entity and risking their collective isolation in case of beaconing, the user can now attach each MAU individually, reducing the number of MAU ports that are at risk; ABRP is abl

STHI Overview DAISY-CHAIN MAU CONFIGURATION When MAUs are daisy-chained, they are connected as single collective entity. The entire chain must be bypassed to isolate the hub from a single beaconing station. All stations lose connection if beaconing occurs on any station.

General Networking Considerations Crosstalk 2 Crosstalk is interference caused by signal coupling between different cable pairs contained within a multi-pair cable bundle. Multi-pair cables should not be used for UTP lobe cabling. Avoid mixing Token Ring signals with other applications (voice, etc.) within the same cable. Noise 3 Noise can be caused by either crosstalk or externally induced impulses. Outside systems (motors, switching equipment, fluorescent lighting, high amperage equipment
