The 3Com 3C16704 is an OfficeConnect TP4 Hub, the base revision of the 3C16704A variant documented in 3Com’s OfficeConnect literature, providing a small unmanaged Ethernet hub for home-office and small-business use. OfficeConnect was 3Com’s entry-level product family aimed at users needing basic shared-bandwidth connectivity for a handful of devices, sitting below the SuperStack and CoreBuilder ranges built for larger managed networks. As a hub rather than a switch, all connected ports share a single collision domain, which is sufficient for the small port counts and light traffic typical of an OfficeConnect deployment. These devices remain in service in a number of long-lived small-office installations, and a genuine spare such as this restores connectivity after a unit failure. Tech-Star (UK-based, shipped worldwide) stocks 3Com components to support ongoing network maintenance projects. 3Com also catalogued this hub as 3C16704A. That suffix marks a later revision of the same product rather than a different item, so either number refers to the same OfficeConnect TP4 hub.
