Introduction
Thank you for choosing the PLASTIC-PALM 10BASE-T
Ethernet Hub. The hub was designed and manufactured to give
you years of trouble-free and reliable service.
The hub is designed for plug-and-play installation and easy
management. The hub provides an Uplink connection for your
network expansion via a RJ-45 connector, making it easy to
link two or more hubs together.
The hub features LINK/RX LEDs to show the connection and
receive status of each twisted pair port. PWR and COL
indicators show the status of the hub as whole.

LED Indicators
Power (PWR):
This indicator lights green when the hub
is receiving power, otherwise, it is off.
Collision (COL):
This indicator indicates data collisions on
the respective Ethernet segments of the
hub. Whenever a collision is detected, the
respective COL indicator will briefly
blink amber.
Link/Receive:
(LINK/RX)

station to which the hub is connected is
powered off, or if there is a problem with
the link, the LED will remain off. And the
indicator blinking green when the data
will be received to all other connected
ports.
BNC:
This indicator blinking green when the
data is transmitted.
Rear Panel Indicators
Twi st ed- pai r Jacks
Use these jacks connect stations to the hub. These are MDI-X
(Medium Dependent Interface, Cross-Wired) jacks, which
means you can use ordinary stright-through twisted-pair cables
to connect user mechines and servers to the hub through them.
If you need to connect another device with an MDI-X jack,
such as another hub or an Ethernet switch, you should use a
crossver cable, or make the connection using the Uplink jack.
Upl i nk Jack
The Uplink jack is an MDI-II jack, which means you can
connect the hub (or a hub stack) to a device with an MDI-X
port using an ordinary straight-through cable, making a
crossover cable unnecessary.
Port1 and the Uplink port is really the same port, except thar
their pinouts are different. Do not use bot h Port - 1 ( 1X) and
the Upl i nk port at the same ti me.

Installation
Installing the Hub
The site where you install the hub may greatly affect
its performance. When installing, consider the
following pointers:
Install the hub in a fairly cool and dry place, for
the acceptable temperature and humidity operating
ranges.
Install the hub in a site free from strong
electromagnetic field generators (such as motors),
vibration, dust, and direct exposure to sunlight.
Leave at least 10 cm of space at the front and rear of
the hub for ventilation.
Install the hub on a sturdy, level surface that can
support its weight. When installing the hub on a
level surface, attach the rubber feet to the bottom of
each device. The rubber feet cushion the hub and
protect the hub case from scratches.
Connecting the Power Adapter
Power is supplied to the Ethernet Hub through an AC
power adapter.

pairs (only two pairs--that is, four wires--are used
for 10BASE-T).

Crossover Cables
When making an uplink connection between one hub and
another (or between a hub and a switch or bridge) using X -type
jacks at both ends, you must use a crossover cable. In a
crossover cable, two pairs of wires are switched at one end.
Carry out the following steps to create a crossover twisted-pair
cable:
1. Leave one end of the cable as-is, with the wiring on the
RJ-45 connector unchanged. The wiring needs to be
modified at one end only.
2. At the other end of the cable, connect wires 1 and 2 to
contacts 3 and 6, respectively. Likewise, connect wires
3 and 6 to contacts 1 and 2. Refer to the following
diagram:
