Magnum H80P Installation
Installation of the Magnum H80P Personal Hub is a simple
procedure. Since the unit receives power from its rear DTE port, it
can be located virtually anywhere. The H80P is typically connected
to another Ethernet device through an AUI drop cable. For AUI
connection instructions, refer to Section 3.5.2.
It is also possible to connect an external power supply
(refer to Spare Part Ordering Information, Section 1.3, for model
names). This is useful in cases where a redundant supply is desired
or the topology of the network has changed and the DTE port is no
longer being used. When using an external power supply, the unit
will still receive its power from the AUI connection as long as the
port is connected and supplying suitable power. Should a power
outage occur on the AUI segment, the external power supply will
continue to supply power, maintaining connectivity amongst local
users. Refer to Section 3.1 for external power supply connection
instructions.
