After you have finished configuring your 56K LAN Modem, you can connect an additional Ethernet hub or hubs to
the 56K LAN Modem to add up to 25 users. An example of a ten-user connection is shown.
To connect an additional hub:
1
Insert one end of a 10BASE-T Ethernet cable into one of the ports marked
LAN
on the back of the 56K LAN
Modem.
2
Insert the opposite end of the cable into one of the 10BASE-T Ethernet ports on the Ethernet hub.
(If you are connecting to an OfficeConnect Ethernet Hub 8, insert the cable into port 8.)
3
If connecting to an OfficeConnect Ethernet Hub 8, set the MDI/MDIX switch to MDI (that is, pressed in).
If the hub to which you are connecting does not have an MDI/X switch, you will need a cross-over Ethernet
cable.

The Rubber Feet.
For desktop use, the four self-adhesive rubber feet prevent your 56K LAN Modem from sliding.
Attach the feet to the underside of the LAN Modem in the marked corners.
The Stacking Clip.
The stacking clip allows you to stack two or more OfficeConnect units together securely.
CAUTION:
You can stack up to a maximum of four units. Smaller units must be stacked on top of larger
units.
To stack two units:
1
Place the first unit on a flat surface.
2
Fit the clip across the top of the unit, as shown. The longer end of the
fastening pieces should point downward.
3
Align the fastening pieces over the slots on each side of the unit, and
then push the clip down gently to secure it. Ensure that the fastening
pieces snap into the slots.
4
Rest the second unit on top of the clip and align it with the front of
the bottom unit.
5
Press down gently to secure the top unit onto the clip, ensuring that
the fastening pieces fit into the slots, as shown.
To unstack units, gently pry the top unit away from the clip, and then carefully
pull either fastening piece out of its slot to detach the clip from the bottom
unit.
