2. Place the first hub on a firm flat

surface where you want to install
the stack.

3. Repeat step 1 for each hub before

stacking them. The rubber foot
pads cushion the hub against shock/vibrations and provide space between
each hub for ventilation.

Mounting Hubs in a Rack

Please comply with the following
instructions to ensure that your hub is
securely mounted in the rack.
1. Use a standard EIA 19-inch rack.
2. Use the brackets and screws

supplied in the rack mounting kit.

3. Use a cross-head screwdriver to attach the brackets to the side of the hub.
4. Position the hub in the rack by lining up the holes in the brackets with the

appropriate holes on the rack, and then use the supplied screws to mount the
hub in the rack.

Connecting the Hub System

These hubs have 8 (16) dual-speed RJ-45 station ports, one of which also
serves as a dual-speed MDI daisy-chain port.

Making a Connection via an RJ-45 Station Port

You can connect any RJ-45 (MDI-X) station port on the hub to any device that
uses a standard network interface such as a workstation or server, or to a
network interconnection device such as a bridge or router (depending on the port
type implemented).
1. Prepare the devices you wish to network. Make sure you have installed

10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX network interface cards for connecting to the
hub's RJ-45 (MDI-X) station ports.

2. You also need to prepare straight-through shielded or unshielded twisted-pair

cables with RJ-45 plugs at both ends. Use 100

Category 3, 4 or 5 cable for

standard 10Mbps Ethernet connections, or 100

Category 5 cable for

100Mbps Fast Ethernet connections.
