A Core Competence Product Evaluation

3Com SuperStack II Port Switch Hub 40

This product evaluation was conducted using a 3Com SuperStack Port Switch Hub Model 40, a managed Ethernet repeater with Port Switching capabilities, and a SuperStack II Switch 1000 provided by 3Com product marketing. The SuperStack II Switch 1000 ran Software Agent 2.10. The Port Switch comes with a Transcend Quick Configuration Manager for Windows-based PCs.

For our evaluation, we attached between four and six end stations to the Port Switch Hub, and connected multiple shared segments of these hubs to a SuperStack II Switch 1000 using 10 Mbps uplinks.
