For the purpose of making connections to the DFE-904, a bridge, router, or
switching hub (also known as a "switch") is considered an end node. Such a
device acts as an end node in each of two or more collision domains, making
them seem like a single network.
Before making connections, check the rules and precautions and the mounting
instructions given in this guide. Make sure all requirements for safe, correct
operation have been met.
Make connections for each end node as follows:
1. Double-check to make sure the end node will access the network at the
same speed as the hub and your other end nodes (10 or 100 Mbps).
Check the setting of the DFE-904's speed switch and the specifications for
the end node's network interface.
2. Select a cross-wired RJ-45 jack on the hub.
This can be any one of the jacks labeled 1 through 4.
3. Plug one end of the cable into the end node's RJ-45 jack.
Align the plug so its contacts will meet the metal contacts inside the jack,
then push it in firmly. The plug's catch tab should click audibly when the
plug is all the way in.
4. Plug the cable's other end into the selected jack on the hub.
The following figure shows a single-hub network on which all possible
connections to the DFE-904 have been made.
