Example: 16 Units at the Maximum in Separate Buildings

Components needed:

Special features:
A media converter is used to switch from UTP cable as transmission medium to LWL (fiber optic cable). In the factory building, which is linked to the pattern preparation building with a fiber optic cable (LWL). A second media converter reconverts the LWS transmission medium to UTP there. This avoids any problems by different potentials.

Cascading (sequential switching) of multiple hubs can be used to network more than 16 units.
Example: 2 hubs = 31 units
