2.2.1 

LBH18x chassis with SC or LC Fiber port 

 

The LBH18x chassis houses one main PC board.  The front side of the 

chassis has eight RJ-45 twisted-pair ports and one 100Mbps fiber port, located at the 
left front of the unit.  Port #9 supports fiber ports only. 
 

LEDs to indicate operating status of all ports are located on the front face 

per port.  There is a power (PWR) indicator for the unit. For each port, there are Link 
and Activity (LINK/ACT) LEDs indicating traffic, and speed (ON for 100Mbps), and 
full/half (F/H) duplex indicators. 
 

The DC power terminal block is located at the right side of the chassis, 

looking at the front. DC power option inputs are 12, 24 and -48VDC. 
 

2.2.2 

LBH08x chassis with all RJ-45 Copper ports 

The LBH08x chassis houses one main PC board.  The front side of the 

chassis has eight twisted-pair switched ports.  All RJ-45 ports are Auto-negotiating 
and Auto-Cross MDI-MDIX.  
 

LEDs to indicate operating status of all ports are located on the front face 

per port.  There is a power (PWR) indicator for the unit. For each port, there are Link 
and Activity (LINK/ACT) LEDs indicating traffic, and speed (ON for 100Mbps), and 
full/half (F/H) duplex indicators. 
      

The DC power terminal block is located at the left front side of the chassis.  

DC power option inputs are 12, 24 and -48VDC.
