A multi-segment repeater includes a first inter-repeater bus and a second inter-repeater bus. A first repeater circuit is connected to the first inter-repeater bus and to the second inter-repeater bus. The first repeater circuit includes a 10 megabit repeater core, and one or more 100 megabit repeater cores. A selector selects which of the repeater cores is to be connected to the first inter-repeater bus. Additionally, provision is made to allow a 100 megabit repeater core to be connected to the second inter-repeater bus.
