Repeaters will extend the length “Functions and features of
of a network however not the interconnection devices”
capacity, this is done by
connecting 2 nodes.
Repeaters can, not be used to
extend a network beyond the
constraints of its underlying
design, or to attach network
segments that use totally
different network access
strategies. They can, however,
connect totally different media
types, and should be ready to
link bridge segments with totally
different data rates.
