Installing & Network Connection

Installation

ÞThe fiber TX, RX cables must be paired at both ends.

ÞRepeat the above step, as needed, for each fiber port to be connected to a 100Base-FX device.

ÞThe fiber port can be up-linked to an upper level hub's port.

ÞVerify that the voltage of AC power is correct and plug in AC power cord.

Note:

1.Both local and remote link devices (mode) must operate at the same transmission mode and speed

After the hub is powered off, wait at least 10 seconds before powering it on again

Network Parameter for 100Mbps Fiber

To help ensure a successful installation, you must observe the following cabling parameter. Violating these rules can render the LAN to work poorly.
