ABSTRACT:
An arrangement whereby a passive line concentrator (100) can be connected in a managed token ring network includes a special concentrator port (200) in an active concentrator (10) which is adapted to have inserted the ring-in port (130) of the passive line concentrator. The special concentrator port of the active concentrator supplies a small phantom current to the passive concentrator, which returns the phantom current only if it has at least one active port. Detection of the returned phantom current controls insertion of the special concentrator port into the network.
