What exactly is a "plug-and-play" solution? Arnold Kamron 30-July-2007 04:15:12 PMComments Hi! "Plug-and-play" means just what it says: a hub that requires little or no set up, preparation or configuration. Unshielded twisted pair 10BASE-T hubs are a good example; they use simple RJ-45 connectors - the same type of plugs used by your telephone. You just install the hub in the wiring closet or on a desktop, plug in the connections (both at the hub and at the PC, server, printer or other piece of equipment) and turn it on. That's it - you're up and running. Networking doesn't get any easier. Posted by jarid_alton |
