The square outlines show where to attach the rubber feet included with the hub.
The feet help to cushion the hub, and should be attached whether you set the hub
on a desk, table, etc., or mount it on a vertical surface.
Installing the Hub
When you connect only end nodes to the DFE-904, connections are made the
same way whether the network works at 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps. The first section
of this chapter explains how to make connections for a one-hub network.
The second section of this chapter explains how to make connections for a multi-
hub network that runs at 10 Mbps.
If your network runs at 100 Mbps and you wish to connect another 100BASE-TX
Class II hub to the DFE-904, see the third section of this chapter.
Caution: A twisted-pair network cable can ordinarily be connected
or disconnected at any time, whether the devices are on
or off. Where an end node has a plug-in adapter, however,
we strongly recommend turning the end node off before
connecting it for the first time. If the plug fits poorly and
the adapter is loose, forcible insertion can momentarily
open an internal contact and damage both the adapter and
the end node.
Single-hub Network
If your network consists of the DFE-904 and two, three, or four end nodes only,
make connections as described in this section.
