  • Page 2: About This Guide

    About this Guide This guide provides instructions for instal-ling all of the products described below. These D-Link® Ethernet Hubs are all Plug and Play compliant for easy installation. When designing your cable configuration, it is necessary to strictly observe the Ethernet cabling rules.
  • Page 3: Rack Mounting

    Rack Mounting The Ethernet Hub may stand alone, or may be mounted in a standard 19-inch equip-ment rack. Rack mounting produces an orderly installation when you have a number of related network devices. Use the six supplied screws to fasten the supplied mounting brackets to either end of the hub, then fasten the hub into the rack.
  • Page 4: Installing Network Cables

    Installing Network Cables Your Ethernet Hub is denominated as an 8-port, or 16-port, or 24-port Ethernet Hub according to the number of its front-panel 10BaseT ports. Additionally it has two ports whose connectors are on the rear panel: one 10Base2 port (BNC connector), connector).

    connector), and thus can only be connected to the hub through a coaxial cable. Station Connections with Twisted-Pair Cable Connect each station to the Ethernet Hub by means of a twisted-pair straight cable (10BaseT cable, Category 3, 4, or 5). Plug one RJ-45 connector into a front-panel port of the Ethernet Hub, and plug the other RJ-45 connector into the...
  • Page 6: Hub-To-Hub Connections With Twisted-Pair Cable

    In making a hub-to-hub connection involving a Model DE-816TP or Model DE-824 Ethernet Hub, there is the alternative of using a straight cable. Internal Crossover Features The Model DE-816TP Ethernet Hub and 24-Port Ethernet feature internal cross-over alternatives for Port 1:...

  • Page 8: Thin Coaxial Cable Connections

    Uplink should be selected only for making a hub- to-hub connection with a straight cable. When Uplink is selected at one end of a straight cable, Uplink must not be selected at other end of that cable. (If Uplink were selected at both ends of a straight cable, then the built-in crossovers of the two connectors would cancel one another, and the hub-to-hub connection would fail.)
  • Page 9 to twist a 50-ohm terminator onto the remaining open leg of the BNC T. Sometimes several Ethernet Hubs must be co- located to support a larger array of stations than can be handled by a single Ethernet Hub. Then it is useful to stack the Ethernet Hubs by joining their BNC connectors with 0.5 meter patches of thin coaxial cable.
  • Page 10: Thick Coaxial Cable Connections

    Thick Coaxial Cable Connections To connect the Ethernet Hub to a thick coaxial cable (10Base5 cable), it is necessary to have a 10Base5 Ethernet transceiver (tap) on the cable at the Ethernet Hub’s position. Then run an AUI cable between the transceiver’s AUI connector and the AUI connector on the rear panel of the Ethernet Hub.

    receptacle on the rear panel of the Ethernet Hub. Plug the other end of the power cord into an electric service outlet. Turn on power to the Ethernet Hub by switching its rear-panel power switch to the on position. LED Indicators LED indicators are located on the front panel of the Ethernet Hub.

If the port is connected but the Link/Rx LED is dark, check whether (1) the Ethernet Hub and the partner device both have power, (2) the port’s cable is firmly seated in its connectors in the Ethernet Hub and in the partner device, (3) the connecting cable is good and is of the correct...
