5.2 Installation Test

IF THE POWER LED IS NOT ON AND THE
BOCAHUB-16 

Plus SHOWS NO ACTIVITY

• Check the connections between the concentrator, the

power cord, and the wall outlet.

• Make sure the wall outlet has power.

• Try another AC power adapter that you know

works. If the Power LED still fails to come ON, the
BOCAHUB-16 Plus may be faulty. Call Technical
Support.

IF THE LINK LEDs DO NOT RESPOND

Check the connections between each network device
and the concentrator port, including wiring. Make
certain all devices have power and are working
normally.
