CAUTION

18 / 104

In the above figure an MDI￿X port on the hub connects to the AST350i. Therefore, a crossover LAN cable is used.

Note: In case the hub's •uplink" port is used to wire the AST350i you can use the included straight￿through LAN cable.

Cascading Repeating Hubs

You may cascade up to four repeating hubs in your LAN (limitations of Repeating Ethernet V2.0/IEEE802.3 hubs). In case more hubs need to be cascaded, you must use switching hubs.

10Base￿T Half Duplex Interfacing

Make sure the 10Base￿T port(s) of your PC(s) are configured for either Auto Negotiation or Half Duplex.

Never configure the 10Base￿T Ports for Full￿Duplex !
