Guide to Token Ring Hubs

Find token ring hubs information

By B. Lumadue


Token ring hubs are devices used to connect computers and other devices to a network. Token ring was developed in the 1980s and is one of the earliest networking technologies. With a token ring network, computers pass a token from one device in a network to the next in the ring until the desired destination is reached.

One problem with this network is that if a computer is not on, the chain is broken and the transmission will fail. A token ring network hub eliminates that problem by bypassing computers that do not have a connection or aren't turned on.

Token ring networks will become harder to repair and support as technology moves farther away from them. There are some reasons that companies choose to keep using token ring networking hubs and networks:

1. Token ring networking hubs offer secure, reliable data transmission.

2. The cost for upgrading to newer technology may be prohibitive,

3. Current IT staff and management is familiar with token ring topology and support.


Action Steps
The best contacts and resources to help you get it done


Find a used token ring hubs provider

Token ring hubs aren't produced any longer, but it's still possible to find used or refurbished token ring hubs to keep your network going.

I recommend: Compuvest carries refurbished 3Com token ring hubs. Network Liquidators offers a lifetime warranty on refurbished hubs. Cutter Networks features used Baystack models with 24 ports. For a more recent product, purchase the Cisco 2502 router, which supports token ring networks, from Recurrent Technologies.

Find token ring hubs accessories and supplies

Keep a token ring network running with accessories, including test kits, power supplies and adapters to connect computers.

I recommend: IBM carries PCI and CardBus adapters to use with token ring hubs. CDW carries accessories and supplies, including a token ring splitter and surge protector. MacMall carries accessories for token ring hubs, like test kits and adapters.

Find token ring hubs support resources

You'll need reliable support information to help you troubleshoot and repair a token ring network.

I recommend: There's a wealth of information on the Internet where you can find support for token ring adapters and hubs. Cisco features instructions for connecting a token ring network to a Cisco 2517 router. For general token ring network support, check FixYa. It offers downloads, documents and forums.

Tips & Tactics

Helpful advice for making the most of this Guide

  • •  Find out about warranty and return options before purchasing used token ring network hubs and accessories. Warranty options may be limited. You may be liable for the cost of shipping, restocking fees and other costs if you decide to return the product.
  • •  Consider creating a plan to upgrade to other networking protocols from token ring hubs. List your networking needs, goals and budget. Weigh the costs of purchasing new equipment against the costs and potential downtime involved with keeping very old equipment running.
