The Oncore Ethernet Private Line Card ($1995) is a daughtercard from Chipcom (Southborough, MA) that plugs into the company's Oncore Switching Hubs. The PLC's continuous auto-learning capability discovers all attached network users and then filters out any information they are not supposed to receive. Users can move from network to network and from hub to hub without losing communications.
