Introduction

±±

The Compex MicroHub/8 (TP1008C); Compex MicroHub/6 (TP1006C); and Compex
MicroHub/16; (TP1016C/ TP1016F) are multi-port Ethernet hubs that bring unmatched

flexibility to LAN environments. There are multi-wiring connections for up to 6 (TP1006C);
or 8 (TP1008C); or 16 (TP1016C/TP1016F) UTP ports. In addition, there is: a BNC
(TP1008C); or a BNC/AUI (TP1016C); or a Fiber Optic (TP1016F) port for easy, direct
connection to different LAN media segments. The TP1006C/TP1008C;/ TP1016C/TP1016F
hubs constantly monitor each port for signal quality and will automatically disconnect a device
producing noise or excessive collisions. The disconnected device will be reconnected
automatically when the error condition is cleared.
