adapters. In this manner, each adapter can (1) sense the channel to determine if it is idle, and (2) detect a collision while it is transmitting. But hubs are popular because they also provide network management features. For example, if an adapter malfunctions and continually sends Ethernet frames 32 (a so-called "jabbering adapter"), then in a 10Base2 Ethernet will become totally dysfunctional. But a 10BaseT network will continue to function, because the hub will detect the problem and internally disconnect the malfunctioning adapter. Also, most hubs can gather information and report the information to a host that connects directly to the hub. This monitoring host provides a graphical interface that displays statistics and graphs. Many Ethernet adapters today are 10/100 Mbps adapters
