Installing & Network Connection
Installation
Þ
The fiber TX, RX cables must be paired at both ends.
Þ
Repeat the above step, as needed, for each fiber port to be connected to
a 100Base-FX device.
Þ
The fiber port can be up-linked to an upper level hub's port.
Þ
Verify that the voltage of AC power is correct and plug in AC power cord.
Note:
1. Both local and remote link devices (mode) must operate at the same
transmission mode and speed
After the hub is powered off, wait at least 10 seconds before powering it
on again
Network Parameter for 100Mbps Fiber
To help ensure a successful installation, you must observe the following cabling
parameter. Violating these rules can render the LAN to work poorly.
