Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of this rackmount stackable dual-speed
hub. Migrating from traditional 10Mbps Ethernet to 100Mbps Fast
Ethernet is now simple and affordable with these dual-speed hubs. These
high performance 16-port, 24-Port, 32-port 10/100Mbps stackable dual-
speed hubs are equipped with 16, 24, 32 RJ45 dual-speed ports, one uplink
port and one internal 2-port switch.
Typically adual-speed hub has two independent internal network segments:
10Mbps segment and 100Mbps segment. Depending on the speed of
attached network devices, each individual port of
a
dual-speed hub
provides Auto-Negotiation capability which automatically senses and
selects optimum speed at 10Mbps or 100Mbps. A 10Mbps network device
attached to the dual-speed hub will be able to communicate with other
network devices attached to the hub running at 10Mbps. On the other hand,
a 100Mbps network device attached to the dual-speed hub will be able to
communicate with other devices attached to the hub running at 100Mbps.
Therefore, dual-speed hub can be 10Base-T hub when all the connecting
nodes are running at 10Mbps as illustrated in Figure 1-1, or can be
100Base-TX hub when all the connecting nodes are running at 100Mbps as
illustrated in Figure 1-2. These stackable dual-speed hubs are the ideal
hubs for both 10Base-T and 100Base-TX networks.

Dual-Speed hub with internal switching function automatically switches
data traffic between devices running at different speed, which allows
communications between ports running at 10Mbps and ports running at
100Mbps. Dual-Speed hub with internal switching function can save
money by eliminate the need to purchase expensive Switches for users
with mixed speed network environment. The connection of the Dual-
Speed hub with internal switching function is illustrated as in Figure 1-3:

When you ready to expand your network, the Uplink port provides an easy
way to connect to another hub with regular straight-through Category 5
cable
These Dual Speed Hubs provide the stackable feature. They can stack
together up to 6 hubs to form a logically Big dual-speed Hub.
These Dual-Speed hubs can be set up as stand-alone units or it can be
mounted on a standard 19" rack (rack mounting kits are included with the
unit).

Installation
1. Operating Environment
These Dual Speed Hubs must be installed and operated within the limits
of specified operating temperature and humidity (see previous section
under Specifications). Do not place objects on top of the unit. Do not
obstruct any vents at the sides of the unit. Do not position the hub near
any heating source such as heater, radiator, or direct exposure to sun.
Prevent entering of water and moisture into the unit. If necessary, use
dehumidifier to reducehumidity.
2. Connecting tonetwork devices
Connect one end of the network cable to any of the RJ45 ports on the
front panel, and connect the other end of the network cable to the RJ45
port of the network device. The network cables must comply with
EIA/TIA 568 specifications and Category 5 standard for 100Mbps data
rate or minimum Category 3 for 10Mbps data rate. Maximum length
between the hub and any network devices is 100 meters (300ft). Once
the network cable is connected on both ends and the attached network
devices are powered on, the green Link Status LED should be lit. If the
connected network devices are running at 100Mbps, the green Speed
LED (100M) shouldalso be lit.

specifications and Category 5 (100Mbps) standards to connect the hubs.
The Uplink port of the Dual-Speed hub supports Auto-Sensing function
which will automatically sense the speed of the connected hub and
operates at either 100Mbps or 10Mbps speed. If the connected hub is
another Dual-Speed hub or 100Base-TX hub, the transmission speed
between the twohubs will beset at 100Mbpsand the greenSpeed (100M)
LED should belit. The maximumlength of thecable should notexceed 5
meters (15ft) when connecting two hubs running at 100Mbps and 100
meters (300ft) whenconnecting two hubsrunning at 10Mbps.

4. Stacking Hubs Together
These Dual Speed Hubs provide two stacking ports. Users may connect two
hubs using the supplied stacking cable. Connect one end of the stacking
cable to the IN stacking connector of the hub and the other end of the
stacking cable to another hub OUT stacking connector. You may stack up to
10 hubs. The hubs cascaded together through stacking ports are in one
collision domain and therefore considered as one logical dual speed hub.

When you have two or more hubs stacked together, only one hub s internal
switch is active, the others are inactive. Such design will eliminate a Loop
in the network that might cause the whole network to malfunction.

Trouble-shooting
1. Power LED is not lit
Check if the power cord is properly connected to the power outlet and the
hub. Make sure the power switch on the hub is turned ON. .
2. Link Status LED is not lit
Check the power switch of the network devices attached to the hub, make
sure they are turned ON.
Check the network cable, make sure it is properly connected to the hub and
the network device.
Check the network cable, make sure the cable complies with EIA/TIA 568
specification. Use straight-through Category 5 cables for 100Mbps
connection and Category 3 or higher cables for 10Mbps connection.
Check the slide switch and make sure it s in normal position when you use
the last port on the hub to connect to workstations or file servers.
3. The last port s Link Status LED is not lit when it is uplinked to
another hub
Make sure the cable is connected to the "uplink" connector.
Check the network cable, make sure it is properly connected to both hubs.
One end of the cable should be connected to uplink port while the other end
of the cable should connected to a regular port. Do not connect the cable to
both uplink ports.
Check the network cable, make sure the cable complies with EIA/TIA 568
specification. Use Category 5 cables for 100Mbps connection.
Check the network cable, make sure the maximum length does not exceed 5
meters (15ft) in 100Mbps connection and 100 meters (300ft) in 10Mbps
connection.
4. Collision LED flashes constantly
Remove all the network cables, connect the cables back one by one to
isolate the source of the collision.
Check the network cable, inferior cable quality will result in excessive
collision and error packets.
