2389.0. "Is it possible to connect 2 DECrepeater 900TM front ports?" by COWBOY::MIRGHANE () Fri Jun 16 1995 16:28

    On an architecture where there are 2 separated DEChub900,
    Is it possible to connect 2 DECrepeater 900TM front ports (one on each
    DEChub900) to have the same  ethernet network span the 2 DEChub900?
    If yes does this require a specific cable?
    If not what is the best way to have the same Ethernet span 2 DEChub900?
    
    
    Thanks for help.
    Soumetty.

 	Yes you can ; 

you need a cross-over rj45 10bt cable ( look at decconnect catalogue for 
reference ) as you are connecting together two repeaters
