Section 4 - Troubleshooting
Symptom: Partition indicator lights up.
Causes: Hub has partitioned the 100BASE-TX (RJ-45) port due to
excessive collisions.
Solution: If port partitioning has occurred, the hub will automatically
enable the port when the faulty condition disappears.
Symptom: Link/Traffic indicator remains unlit.
Causes: The workstation’s network adapter, cable or the hub port is
defective.
Solution: The most common cause is a defective network adapter or
cable connection. Check the corresponding cable connections,
or the workstation’s network adapter for possible defects. Verify
that the correct cable type (straight-through catagory 5) is being
used (see Section 6). Replace the defective cable or adapter.
Symptom: Port 12 and Daisy-Chain port do not work simultaneously.
Causes: Both ports are physically the same port.
Solution: Use either Port 12 or the Daisy-chain port.
