D-Link DFE-2600 manual Rear Panel, Module Slots, Daisy-Chain IN Port, Daisy-Chain OUT Port

Rear Panel

(Note that the figure shows the rear panel for master models.)

♦Module Slots

Used to install module options for various kinds of additional connec- tions, as well as the DFE-260S 10Mbps/100Mbps bridge module. (In the DFE-2616x, DFE-2616ix, DFE-2624x and DFE-2624ix, module slot 1 is already occupied by the switch module which is standard on these mod- els.)

♦Daisy-Chain IN Port

When cascading a set of D-Link stackable dual-speed hubs, this port should be connected to the Daisy-Chain OUT port of the previous hub in the stack (usually placed immediately above it). A cascade of five hubs can be created in this way. The first and last hubs in the stack use only one of the daisy-chain ports, while the others use both.

♦Daisy-Chain OUT Port

Works in conjunction with the Daisy-Chain IN Port (see above). Connect this port to the Daisy-Chain IN Port of the next hub in the stack (usually placed immediately below it), using the enclosed daisy-chain cable.

♦Diagnostic (Console) Port -- Master Models Only
