Time to build a network for your home office or small office? Or do you need to link small workgroups to your corporate fiber network? The Black Box Dual-Speed Personal MiniHub is your quick, easy solution. As small as a paperback book, it features autosensing 10/100Mbps ports for super-easy installation. If you have mixed 10Mbps and 100Mbps devices, the ports sense the speed and assign the device to the correct traffic domain automatically. An internal bridge chip interconnects the two domains, so there’s nothing for you to do when connecting these ports - not even software configuration! It is the ideal way to link small workgroups to corporate fiber networks. And because it has copper and fiber connections in one box, you don’t need a media converter.

The hub features six autosensing RJ-45 half-duplex 10/100Mbps ports as well as one switched RJ-45 port (Port 1). This port can connect a user or be used to daisychain to another hub. What’s more, the port is autonegotiating and can operate at 10- or 100Mbps and in half- or full-duplex mode. It also has one switched 10/100Mbps fiber port (Port 2) for backbone connections. Port 2 has both a fiber and an RJ-45 connector, but only one can be used at a time. The fiber connection can be used at 100Mbps only. Both switched ports (Ports 1 and 2) have a common half- and full-duplex switch. When the switch is set at full-duplex, the hub advertises full-duplex for autonegotiation on RJ-45 ports and forces half-duplex on the fiber port. The six autonegotiating half-duplex 10/100Mbps ports (Ports 3-8) are one switched domain if used at a single speed or automatically divided into both a switched 10Mbps domain and a switched 100Mbps domain according to the speed connected to each port. A built-in store-and-forward switch provides an efficient connection from a workgroup to a central LAN. It automatically learns and maintains the addresses of attached nodes, enabling network additions and changes without reconfiguration.
