Cascading Hubs

When you 10BASE-T network needs to grow past the eight available UTP connections provided by the hub you should consider purchasing an additional hub and cascading it with the original hub.

The 910H features a cascade enable switch. The switch allows you to use straight UTP cables instead of the traditional cables when cascading hubs on port 9.

The following diagram illustrates 10BASE-T cascading:

Wall Mounting

After you have decided on a suitable location for mounting the hub, mark the location for mounting two screws 165mm apart. At the marked locations, drill two holes and insert a tapping screw in each hole. Align the hub’s wall-mount slots with the screws and slide the hub down until the screws are securely last to the hub. You can now complete the installation procedure by marking the necessary cable connections.
