Connecting Hubs or Other Devices

To make a hub-to-hub connection, do the following:

1. Make sure you have the proper cables:

¥ Use UTP-3, 4, 5 (Unshielded Twisted-Pair) cables or better for

10BASE-T connections

¥ Use UTP-5 or STP-1 cables for 100BASE-TX connections.

2. Connect UTP Cable to the uplink port of the Hub, then to a regular port on

the Dual-Speed Stackable Hub (FDH-608 or FDH-616).

The figure below illustrates an example of an expanded network segment.
