I wouldn't say that the way he's going to use it is the wrong way, it
depends on his environment. Now if he was going to be stringing servers off
of that end switch, then he really should think about a different solution.
If 100Mb will fill his bandwidth requirements for that end switch then he's
fine.
One thing I should clarify though, when I originally mentioned that a
repeater would have little benefit and a switch would be better I was
assuming he was replacing that hub with a switch. In this situation the
switch will be acting as a glorified repeater. This is assuming that the
switch will only be serving as a middle man and the other ports are not
going to be used.

Perhaps, you can try the chaining switches, but that may cause more =
problems than it solves.
You should approach management and tell them to do it right, or not at =
all.

I have to figure out a way to get some additional network connections to =
=3D
=3D3D
=3D3D3D
a location in our building for a bunch of thin clients and wireless =3D
=3D3D3D
tablets. That location currently has one connection already. I need it =
=3D
=3D3D
=3D3D3D
to have about 8.=3D3D3D20
This location is about 400' from my main communications room where the =
=3D
=3D3D
=3D3D3D
main switch is located. To get the existing connection there, it goes =
=3D
=3D3D
=3D3D3D
through a hub which is right in the middle. =3D3D3D20
SWITCH ----200'----> HUB ----200'----> outlet.
I was thinking about adding a switch in with the hub for that connection =
=3D
=3D3D
=3D3D3D
then adding another switch at the end for all the extra devices I need.
SWITCH ----200'----> HUB
SWITCH ----200'----> SWITCH----200'----> outlet -> SWITCH =3D
=3D3D3D3D=3D3D3D3D>> =3D3D
=3D3D3D
Devices
The hub is already full and all the new connections I need are in the =
=3D
=3D3D
=3D3D3D
same place. I have two runs of cable from the main switch to the hub =
=3D
=3D3D
=3D3D3D
but only one is used.
Am I inviting disaster by stringing that many switches together. Would =
=3D
=3D3D
=3D3D3D
it be better to use a repeaters or something rather than a switch?
Any ideas are greatly appreciated.
Greg
