sides of the hub using the screws provided.

Hold a mounting bracket against each side of the hub, as shown in Figure

3-1, and align the countersunk screw holes in the bracket with the bracket

mounting holes in the hub. Use a #1 Phillips screwdriver to tighten the

screws to secure each bracket.

2. Attach the hub (with the mounting bracket) to the rack using two

pan-head screws with nylon washers.

Use a #2 Phillips screwdriver and tighten the screws to secure the hub to

the rack.

3. Install any PCs, additional hubs, or other devices in your stack.

For information on connecting the hub, refer to "Connecting the Hub" on

page 3-4.

Connecting the Hub

This section discusses connecting to the hub, cascading to multiple hubs, and

connecting to other NETGEAR products. For instructions on connecting to the

ports or connecting to other NETGEAR products, refer to the following sections:

·"Connecting to the RJ-45 Ports" on this page

·"Connecting to the BNC Port" on page 3-7

·"Connecting to the AUI Port" on page 3-9

·"Connecting to Other NETGEAR Products" on page 3-10

Connecting to the RJ-45 Ports

You can connect PCs, Apple Macintosh computers, UNIX workstations, and any

device equipped with a 10BASE-T Ethernet interface to the RJ-45 ports on the

Model EN516 hub using twisted pair Ethernet cables.

The twisted pair cable extended from an RJ-45 port (or UTP port) is called a

twisted pair segment and can be up to 100 m in length. The UTP ports, with the

exception of port 16, are MDI-X (or Normal) ports. To connect any of the

Normal ports to a PC, a server, or another device with an MDI (or Uplink) port,

you can simply use a regular UTP cable. To connect any of the Uplink ports to

another Uplink port, use an RJ-45 crossover cable.

Port 16 is switchable between Normal (MDI-X) and Uplink (MDI) positions and

should be configured according to the following guidelines:

·Set the Normal/Uplink push button to the Normal position and use a

straight-through cable if the remote end of the cable is connected to an

MDI-wired device such as a PC.

·Set the Normal/Uplink push button to the Uplink position and use a

straight-through cable if the remote end of the cable is connected to an

MDI-X device such as a 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps hub or repeater.

For further cabling guidelines, refer to Appendix B, "Cabling Specifications."

Refer to the following illustrations for connecting to the RJ-45 ports and proceed

to "Completing and Verifying the Installation" on page 3-11.

Figure 3-2 illustrates a workstation connected to an RJ-45 port on the Model

EN516 hub.

Figure 3-2. Connecting a workstation to an RJ-45 port on the Model EN516

hub

NOTE: Ethernet specifications limit segments to 328 feet (100 m) in

length.

Cascading refers to connecting hubs together to increase the number of ports, or

the number of users supported on the network. The RJ-45, BNC, or AUI ports

can be used to cascade hubs together. Figure 3-3 illustrates multiple hubs

cascaded in a hierarchical star.

Figure 3-3. Cascading multiple hubs in a hierarchical star through the RJ-45

ports

NOTE: Ethernet specifications limit the number of hubs in any

communication path to five hubs, as shown in Figure 3-3. For example,

when PC "A" communicates with PC "B," the communication path goes

from hub 5 to hub 7, passing through hubs 2, 1, and 4.

Figure 3-4 illustrates multiple hubs cascaded in a daisy-chain style.

Figure 3-4. Cascading multiple hubs daisy-chain style through the RJ-45

ports

NOTE: Each twisted pair cable between two hubs is counted as one

network segment. When cascading hubs daisy-chain style through the

twisted pair cable, stay within Ethernet specifications and make sure the

total hub count does not exceed five hubs.

Connecting to the BNC Port

The BNC port at the rear panel of the Model EN516 hub is used for connecting to

a thin coaxial segment. You can connect servers, workstations, or other devices to

the BNC port or several Model EN516 hubs as shown in Figure 3-5. By using the

BNC port for cascading, you treat each connected hub as just another node on the

coaxial segment.

When using the BNC interface, follow these steps:

1. Insert the BNC T-connector on the BNC port of the Model EN516

hub.

2. Connect the coaxial cable that leads from a device on the network to

one of the self-locking ends of the BNC T-connector.

3. Connect the coaxial cable from another device to the remaining end of

the self-locking BNC T-connector. If there are no more devices to be

connected, terminate the connection with the 50 Ohm terminator that

is provided with the product.

4. Proceed to "Completing and Verifying the Installation" on page 3-11.

Figure 3-5 illustrates three hubs cascaded through the BNC connector. The

separation marks in the coaxial cable between the two top hubs illustrate the

incorporation of other devices and show that interconnection is not limited to

hubs.

Figure 3-5. Cascading hubs through the BNC port

NOTE: Ethernet specifications limit a BNC segment to 30 stations,

specify a minimum of 0.5 m between any two stations, and limit segments

to 600 feet (185 m) in length.

For further information about using coaxial cables, refer to Appendix B, "Cabling

Specifications."

Connecting to the AUI Port

The AUI port at the rear panel of the Model EN516 hub is normally used for

connecting a thick coaxial segment.

When using the AUI port, refer to Figure 3-6 and follow these steps:

1. Connect the AUI port on the hub to an external coaxial transceiver

through an AUI transceiver cable.

With the right type of transceiver, you could use the AUI port to connect to

most types of network media, including 10BASE-T twisted pair, thin

coaxial, thick coaxial, and 10BASE-FL fiber optic cables.

2. Disable the signal quality error (SQE) test function for each external

transceiver connected to the AUI port.

Refer to your transceiver documentation for information about disabling the

SQE test function.

NOTE: If the SQE test function is not disabled, the port is automatically

partitioned.

3. Proceed to "Completing and Verifying the Installation" on page 3-11.

Figure 3-6. Cascading hubs through the AUI port

NOTE: Ethernet specifications limit segments to 100 stations and 1,640

feet (500 m) in length, and specify that the AUI cable between the hub and

the transceiver is limited to 164 feet (50 m).

Connecting to Other NETGEAR Products

You can extend your network by connecting to an Ethernet switch, such as the

NETGEAR Model SW507 Ethernet Switch. Figure 3-7 illustrates power users on

a 100 Mbps network using the NETGEAR Model FE516 Fast Ethernet Hub and

connecting to the 10 Mbps network through a Model SW507 switch.

Figure 3-7. Connecting multiple NETGEAR products

Completing and Verifying the Installation

To complete the installation, connect the power cord first to the power entry

receptacle on the hub rear panel and then to the power outlet on the wall. When

power has been applied to the hub, the following conditions should exist:

·Green Power LED on the front panel is on.

·Yellow BNC Partition LED is on if the BNC port is not connected.

·Green Link/Rx LED on each connected port is on.

If there are any problems, refer to Chapter 4, "Troubleshooting."
