CHAPTER 1 INTORDUCTION
Product Introduction
EH-500, EH-800A and EH-1600 is a standard Ethernet
concentrator that re-times and re-transmits the signal to each
network station on the LAN. It simplifies the implementation of
twisted-pair Ethernet compatible networks following the IEEE
802.3 10Base-2/5/T CSMA/CD standard. Each Hub has 5/8/16
modular RJ-45 STP ports and one BNC port; EH-1600 also have
an AUI port for attaching network devices (file server, bridge,
and workstations) or additional concentrators.
Product Features
EH-500/EH-800A/EH-1600 provides all the functions necessary
to support the requirements of Ethernet networks. These function
includes the following features:
♦5/8/16-port STP RJ-45 connector and one port BNC, one port
AUI(EH-1600).
♦Manchester decoder for clock and data recovery
♦Automatic preamble regeneration to compensate for any bit
loss
♦Lockup and auto-partition for jabber to isolate network
failures
♦Auto-Polarity correction
♦LEDs for Power, Collision, and Link, TX/RX per port
♦Desktop or wall-mountable(EH-500/EH-800A).

CHAPTER 2 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Cover Panel of EH-500/EH-800A/EH-1600
On the cover panel, there are Power, Collision LED. And one
LEDs for each RJ-45 STP & BNC, AUI port (EH-1600);. These
LED indicators help in diagnosing line troubles and indicate the
status of data transmission.

There are one DC power connector, one BNC connector for the
hub, and one AUI connector for EH-1600.
Note: Pleases check the AC adapter bundled with this hub. The
DC output should be 5V~7.5VDC (EH-500) 7.5VDC
