Model EN104/EN108/EN116 Ethernet Hub Installation Guide
To install your hub on a flat surface, you do not need any special tools. Be sure the hub is
positioned with at least 2 inches of space on all sides for ventilation.
To install the hub on a wall, measure the distance between the mounting hole on the back of the
hub and mark the wall to match the location of the mounting holes on the hub. At the marked
location, screw into the wall the two screws that you received with the mounting kit included in
your package contents. Be sure to choose a location that is near the devices to be connected, is
close to an electrical outlet, and provides at least 2 inches of space all around the hub for
ventilation.
You can connect PCs, Apple Macintosh computers, UNIX workstations, or any device equipped
with a 10BASE-T Ethernet interface to the RJ-45 ports on your hub by using twisted pair Ethernet
cables.
To connect any of the RJ-45 ports on your hub to a PC, use a regular straight-through UTP cable.
If you are connecting using port 4 on the Model EN104 hub, port 8 on the Model EN108 hub, or
port 16 on the Model EN116 hub, set the Normal/Uplink push button to Normal.
Cascading refers to connecting hubs together to increase the number of ports or the number of
users supported on the network. The 10BASE-T ports can be used to cascade hubs together.
The twisted pair cable extended from a 10BASE-T port (or UTP port) is called a twisted pair
segment and can be up to 100 meters (m) in length. The 10BASE-T ports, with the exception of
port 4 on the Model EN104 hub, port 8 on the Model EN108 hub, or port 16 on the Model EN116
hub, are MDI-X (or Normal) ports. Use the following table as a guide for selecting the appropriate
network cable.
Note:
Ethernet specifications limit the cable length between your PC or server and
the hub to 328 feet (100 meters) in length.
