Magnum DS50 / DS60s Dual Speed Hubs Installation and User Guide (06/02)
3.0 INSTALLATION
This chapter provides instructions for installing the Magnum DS50 / DS60 Dual-
speed Hub Plus.
3.1 Locating the Magnum DS50 / DS60 Dual-speed Hubs Plus
The location of the Magnum DS50 / DS60 Dual-speed Hub Plus is dependent on the
physical layout of the network and the workgroup to be bridge-isolated. The compact size of
the unit allows it to be table-top, shelf or wall-mounted. Brackets for vertical mounting are
included. The cooling fan in the bottom of the unit exhausts air underneath the unit, so the
space around the rubber feet should be kept clear. (An optional floor stand for edge-mounting is
available - see GCI’s Spare Parts List - and this stand is recommended for use on carpeted
floors.)
Locate an AC receptacle that is within six feet (2 meters) of the intended Magnum
DS50 / DS60 site. (For optional DC power, see Appendix B). The rugged metal case of the
Magnum DS50 / DS60 will normally protect it from accidental damage in a lab or workplace
setting. Keep an open area around the unit so that cooling can occur while the unit is in
operation.
3.1.1 Table-Top or Shelf Mounting
The Magnum DS50 / DS60 Dual-speed Hub Plus can be easily mounted on a table-
top or any suitable horizontal surface. It also has four rubber feet to provide stability without
scratching finished surfaces. Air from the cooling fan exhausts to the underneath side.
