Installing the Hub
Connecting the Hub-16M to a Fiber-Optic Backbone
With an HP Fiber-Optic external transceiver for 10Base-FL networks, you can
connect your hub to a fiber-optic backbone. The following illustration shows
a hub with an HP Fiber-Optic external transceiver connected to a fiber-optic
backbone:
For more information about cabling configuration, see the documentation
accompanying the optional transceiver modules.
Interpreting LED Status
Two types of LEDs exist on the hub. They are:
Hub Status LEDs. These LEDs reflect certain conditions that exist on the
hub at large and are not explicitly referring to a given port.
Port Status LEDs. These LEDs reflect basic conditions (for example, Link
Beat being enabled) that exist on a specific port.
Status information for both are described in the following tables.
