The TE-R2 Ethernet repeaters comply to IEEE 802.3 standard. It enables you to join ethernet cable segments to extend the length of the network trunk line. It can also be used to connect more computers to your network. Since there is a limit on the number of computers allowed on each cable segment, you can cut the segment into two, and then join them with an Ethernet Repeater. This will allow more computers to be added to each network segment.

The TE-R2 Ethernet repeater auto-partitions each port. If a problem occurs to one of the segments, the TE-R2 will automatically isolate the segment, therefore will not effect the operations of the other segments.
