Hardware Overview

Before you start to setup your network with your
Switching Hub

, browse through this section first and

familiarize yourself with the various components of the
hub. This section shows what the front and rear panels
look like and briefly explains what each component is
intended for.


Front panel of the Switching Hub consists of the
followings:

Normal 10Base-T / 100Base-TX UTP Ports

These ports allow connections to PCs, workstations
and servers in a 10Base-T or 100Base-TX network.
They can automatically detect the transmission speed
(that is, 10Mbps or 100Mbps) and adjust accordingly.
Each auto MDIX port is an 8-pin RJ-45 connector (see
figure below), and allow connection to a compatible
hub, hub stack or switch using straight through cable.

The LED indicators at the front panel show the overall
hub status, individual port state and individual port
