BNC Port
This port is labeled BNC, and has a built-in transceiver for direct 10BASE2
connection via thin coaxial cable. Use RG-58 A/U or RG-58 C/U type cable.
Refer to Appendix B for 10BASE2 cabling guidelines when connecting to this
port.
AUI Port
On 16-Port Models only. The AUI port is a 15-pin D-sub connector. It is a
general purpose port for backbone or mixed media connections for 10BASE2,
10BASE5, 10BASE-T, or FOIRL connections using a proper external
transceiver.
8 or 16 UTP Ports
The UTP ports are numbered 1 through 8 or 1 through 16 for 10BASE-T
connections. Since crossover function is implemented on all UTP MDI-X
ports, a straight-through UTP cable should be used. Note: Port 8 and Port 16
support both cable types using the Cable Switch. Refer to Appendix B for
details on RJ-45 pin assignments and cable specifications.
3-Pin AC Power Jack
The EtheRx hub gets its power from the accompanying AC power transformer.
Insert the 3-pin power cable connector into the AC power jack at far right. For
safety purposes, please use ONLY the included AC power transformer for
proper operation. The wrong type power transformer may cause damage to
both the hub and the power transformer.
