The following are LED indicator possibilities for a
PC to the N-Way Mini Switch connection:
1. The Speed/Act. LED indicator illuminates upon
hookup.
2. The FDX/Col. LED indicator depends upon
LAN card capabilities.
Switch to Hub
A hub (10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX) can be con-
nected to the N-Way Switch via a two-pair Cat-
egory 3/4/5 UTP/STP straight cable. The connec-
tion is accomplished from any normal port of the N-
Way Mini Switch to the uplink port of the con-
nected hub.
Hub without Uplink Port
Using straight cable
When using straight cable, the connection can be
made from the Uplink port shared with the port #8
of the 8-Port N-Way Mini Switch to any port of the
Hub (see figure 3-3
.
Using crossover cable
When using crossover cable, the connection can
be made from any port (the port #1-8) of the 8-Port
N-Way Mini Switch to any port of the Hub (see
figure 3-3).
