Installation
This chapter provides information to help you prepare for and install the hub
and connect the hub to the network.
Mounting the Hub
You can place this hub directly on a desktop or mount it in a rack. Before you
start installing the hub, make sure you can provide the right operating
environment, including power requirements, sufficient physical space, and
proximity to other network devices you want to connect. Verify the following
installation requirements:
Q Power requirements: 100 to 240 VAC (+/- 10%) at 50 to 60 Hz (+/- 3
Hz). The hub’s power supply automatically adjusts to the input voltage.
Q The hub should be located in a cool, dry place with at least 10 cm (4 in.)
of space at the front and back for ventilation.
Q Place the hub out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources or areas
with a high amount of electromagnetic interference.
Q If you intend to mount the hub in a rack, make sure you have all the
necessary mounting screws, brackets, and tools.
Q Check if network cables and connectors needed for installation are
available.
Mounting the Hub on a Flat Surface
This hub can be placed anywhere there is enough flat space, such as on a table
or desktop.
1. Stick the self-adhesive rubber foot pads (that come with this package) on
each of the four concave spaces located on the bottom of the hub
2. Place the hub on a firm, flat surface.
3. Be sure you allow at least 2 inches (5 cm) on each side and 4 inches (10
cm) at the back of the hub for proper airflow.
