Congratulations on your purchase of an Ethernet hub. Your hub

was designed and manufactured to give you years of trouble-free

and reliable service.

This hub is designed for plug-and-play installation and easy

management. The hub provides an Uplink connection for your

network expansion via a RJ-45 connector, making it easy to link

two hubs together.

This hub features Link/Activity LEDs to show the connection and

activity status of each port. Power and Collision indicators show

the status of the hub as a whole.

Product Features

 Compliance to IEEE 802.3 10Base-T/2 standard.

 Automatic partitioning function of each port to isolate

network failure.

 LED indicators for each twisted pair port for network link and

activity reporting diagnosis.

 Compact design.

 The hub’s housing is made with Aluminum providing

excellent performance for heat dissipation and EMI.

LED indicators:

Power/PWR: Lit whenever the hub is connected to a

power source and is turned on.

Collision/COL: Lit whenever a packet collision occurs on

the Ethernet network. A collision means that

two or more stations have tried to transmit the

same time. Frequent collisions may mean that

network segment is congested.

Link/TP: Lit when there is a good connection between

the workstation and the port that is connected

to.

Activity/ACT: Blinking whenever a packet is transmitted or

received.

BNC: Blinking when the data is transmitted.

Uplink TP: This is a module, you may use either the

Uplink for cascade another hub or TP port for

normal workstation connection.

INSTALLATION

TWISTED PAIR CABLE

You may use Cat. 3 or better cables for your 10Base-T Ethernet

environment. It is important that the pairings of wires in the

modular plug match the pairs in the modular jack as well as the

horizontal and backbone wiring. If they don’t, the data being

transmitted may be paired with incompatible signals.

INTERCONNECTION GUIDELINES

The Ethernet Hub makes your various types of Ethernet networks

interconnection comes true. Using the hub, you can efficiently

build up and flexibly interconnect twisted-pair Ethernet networks.

Furthermore, having great expansion capability, the hub keeps

your existing coaxial Ethernet system still valuable, capable of

connecting different Ethernet cabling systems together with wide

range of configuration.

No matter what kind of medium and configuration you choose to

build up your network, certain guidelines must be observed.

1. The Distance Guidelines of Twisted-pair Wire, Coaxial

Cable.

Medium Connection Max. Distance

Twisted Pair hub to station 100 meters

Twisted Pair hub to hub 100 meters

Twisted Pair hut to AUI adapter 100 meters

Thin cable hub to hub 185 meters

2. Guidelines for the maximum Ethernet Network Length

 A maximum of three to four Ethernet hubs or repeaters may

be attached within the path between any two stations,

according to your network environment.

Referring to the following examples will improve your

understanding:

I. Network Interconnection via Twisted-Pair Wire:

100M

Note: The maximum cable distance from computer to hub or from

hub to hub via twisted-pair is 100 meters. Maximum of 4 hubs can

be uplinked together using the UTP cables.

II. Network Interconnection via Thin cable:

|← 185M (Thin Cable) →|

100M (TP cable) 100M

Note: Thin cable = RG-58A/U or RG58/U, 50 Ohms cable. The open end

of the T connector should be terminated with a 50 Ohms terminator. The

maximum Ethernet network length via thin coax cable is 185M.

Establish a Basic Twisted-Pair Network

1. Placing the hub

The hub should be located in a secure place accessible only to the

network administrator. It should be close to a power source, since

it requires power in order to operate.

When a suitable location is identified, connect one end of the

power to the hub and plug the other end into the power outlet.

After plugging the hub into a power outlet, you should check the

Power LED. If the power LED lights, then the hub is receiving

power and you can go on to the next step.

2. Connecting to the network

Once you have found an appropriate place for your hub, you can

connect network stations to it using 10Baes-T twisted pair,

10Base2 thin coaxial.

For twisted pair connections, you should use Category 3 or better

twisted pair cable. The cable should be installed by qualified

professional to insure that every part of your installation is capable

of carrying 10Base-T signals.

3. Connecting 10Base-T Twisted Pair Cabling

To connect station using twisted pair cabling, simply plug the cable’s

RJ-45 connector into an available RJ-45 connector on the hub.

4. Connecting 10Base-2 Thin Coaxial Cabling

To connect the 10Base-2 network, attach the cable’s BNC T

connector to the BNC port on the hub. The open end of the T

should be terminated by using a 50 Ohms Terminator.

Cascading the hubs by Uplink port

When connecting two hubs, one hub uses the UpLink port and the

other end is on a normal port. The UpLink port connects directly

to a normal Twisted Pair cable, no crossover cable is needed.
