Accton Technology E0698-R02 manual CheetaHub Classic-2041 Verifying Hub Status, State Indication

CheetaHub Classic-2041

Verifying Hub Status

Check each connection by comparing the indicators with the following table.

LED	State	Indication
Power	On	Hub receiving power.
Collision	Flashing	Two or more devices attempted to transmit data at the
		same time. (Normal situation under Ethernet CSMA/CD.)
Utilization	On	Indicates percentage of LAN bandwidth utilized.
Partition	On	Port partitioned due to an abnormal network condition.
Link/Traffic	On	Port has established a valid network connection.
	Flashing	Port is receiving packets; blinking is proportional totraffic.

Applications

Flexible Configuration - This hub is not only designed to provide network access for 10Mbps connections, but also to provide a wide range of options in setting up network connections. It can be used as a simple stand-alone hub or stacked up to 10 high; or can be cascaded to any compatible hub or switch. A sample configuration diagram is shown in the following figure.

Troubleshooting

Diagnosing Hub Indicators

The hub can be easily monitored through panel indicators to assist the network manager in identifying problems. This section describes common problems you may encounter and possible solutions.

Symptom: Power indicator does not light up (green) after power on.

Cause: Defective power outlet, power cord, or internal power supply.

Solution: Check the power outlet by plugging in another device that is functioning properly. Check the power cord with another device. If these measures fail to resolve the problem, have the unit's power supply replaced by a qualified Accton distributor.

Symptom: Link indicator does not light up (green) after making a connection.

Cause: Network interface (e.g., a network adapter card on the attached device), network cable, or hub port is defective.

Solution: Verify that the hub and attached device are powered on. Be sure the cable is plugged into both the hub and attached device. Check the adapter on the attached device and cable connections for possible defects. See if your cable is functioning properly by using it for another port and attached device that displays valid indications when connected to the network. Replace the defective adapter or cable if necessary. Also verify that you have not exceeded specified limits for any attached media as summarized in the following table:

Media Type	Max Length	Max Nodes	Other
Twisted Pair	100 meters (328 feet)	1000
Thin Ethernet	185 meters (607 feet)	30	0.5 meters1
Thick Ethernet	500 meters (0.3 miles)	500	50 meters2
Fiber Optic (10 Mbps)	2000 meters (1.24 miles)	link pair

1 - Minimum distance between nodes.

2 - Maximum length of drop cable from AUI port to transceiver. (0.5 meters = 1.64 feet; 50 meters = 164 feet)
