Installing the Hub
This chapter describes how to install the 1017A/B 10Base-T Hub. It describes
specific installation requirements, installation procedures, and basic network
connections.
Site Requirements
Consider the following site requirements before you install the hub.
Q
Verify that the power source meets the following electrical
specifications.
AC Power Frequency
100 to 240V (+/- 10%) 50 to 60Hz (+/- 3Hz)
The hub is equipped with a power supply that automatically detects the
input voltage level.
Q
Leave at least 10 cm. of space at the front and back of the hub for
ventilation. We recommend that you install the hub in a cool, dry area.
Q
If you plan to mount the hub in a rack, be sure you have all the required
screws, brackets and tools you need for proper installation.
Q
Be sure the installation location is either a level surface (for example, a
table or shelf) or a standard, 19-inch equipment rack. A good location is
at the center of all the devices you want to link, close to the trunk
segment, and near a power outlet.
Q
Be sure you connect the hub only to another 1017A/B or compatible
10Base-T hub.
