Hardware Installation

1. Find a location for the hub.

The unit is suitable for desktop or rack-mount installation.
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.

F

The SuperSmart hubs can be stacked with other hubs using a
mounting rack or directly on top of one another through the FlexBus
1500 ports. Refer to the sections on

Stacking Hubs without a Rack

or

Mounting Hubs on a Rack for a description of these methods.

If you don’t want to stack the hub with other hubs now, skip this
step and proceed to

Connecting the Hub System.

If you plan to use the hub in a stand-alone configuration, go to Step
4 under

Connecting the Hub System.

2. Connect the hub to compatible hubs (e.g., another SuperSmart hub)

through the FlexBus 1500 ports. Use either of the two methods
mentioned in this section.
