WAN port
(10BaseT) Connect the DSL or Cable Modem here. If your modem came with a
cable, use the supplied cable. Otherwise, use a standard CAT5 UTP
LAN cable.
10/100BaseT
LAN connectors Use standard LAN cables (RJ45 connectors) to connect to your PCs.
Both 10BaseT and 100BaseT connections can be used simultaneously.
If no Uplink push-button is present, all 4 LAN ports are capable of
being connected to a hub with a straight-through cable.
If an Uplink button is present, see the "Normal/Uplink" button
function below.
Normal/Uplink
Button- Optional If this button is present, it allows LAN port 1 to be used as an Uplink
port for connecting directly to another hub.
When depressed (in), then the "LAN 1" port becomes an "Uplink" port,
and must be connected to a normal port on another Hub.
If this button is extended (out), then the "LAN 1" port acts as a normal
LAN port.
