1. Make sure each twisted-pair cable does not exceed 100 meters
(328 feet).
2. The Category 5 cables are used for all Fast Ethernet
connections. We advise using Category 5 cable for dual-
speed hub to avoid any confusion or inconvenience in
the future when you upgrade attached devices to Fast
Ethernet.
3. When a hub is to be connected to another switch in a daisy-
chain configuration, set the port 8 as daisy -chain port (Swit ch
MDI-X/MDI to right position). Use normal RJ45 cable. Plug
one end of the cable into port 8 of the hub and plug the other
end of the cable into any port of the other switch.
Note:
When switch MDI-X/MDI set to MDI, the port 8 of the unit
cannot be used as a station port.
4. When external switch device is adopted to interconnect other
segments, the switch on the left side panel of FHU-0803TXD
can set the port 8 as 10Mbps port in case both interconnected
ports are auto-negotiated.
5. Plug the power cord into the corresponding socket.
Then connect it to an electrical outlet to power on the
hub.
Troubleshooting
The hub can be easily monitored through panel indicators to assist
the network manager in identifying problems. This section
describes common problems you may encounter and possible
