Model FE116 Fast Ethernet Hub Installation Giude
The instructions provided in this guide are for installing and using the Model FE116 hub.
LEDs
There are two LEDs on the front panel of the hub and two on each vista 100BASE-T network port
(RJ-45 connector) that allow you to monitor the status of the hub and the network. The table
describes the activity of the LEDs.
Vista 100BASE-T Network Ports with Built-in LEDs
The front panel of the Model FE116 hub has sixteen vista 100BASE-T ports. Two LEDs—the
Link/Rx LED and the Part (partition) LED—are built into each 100BASE-T port.
Normal/Uplink Push Button
The Normal/Uplink push button on the Model FE116 hub allows you to select Normal (MDI-X)
or Uplink (MDI) wiring for port 16, eliminating the need to use a crossover cable. Ports 1 to 15 on
the hub are permanently configured for Normal wiring.
