first hub's uplink jack. Next, the other end of the cable should be plugged in the
other hub's regular jack.
To uplink the hub, users should pay attention to the following requirements:
- The cable used to uplink both hubs must be a UTP-5, UTP-1 or any equiva-
lent cable.
- The maximum length of the uplink cable must not exceed five meters.
The hub can now be connected to the power cord.
Checking Port Status
Once the hub is connected to the power cord, the power indicator will shine
steadily.
The hub will then automatically test each port connection. The end node must
be turned on for the test to succeed. If the end node is not turned on, the port will
indicate a connection failure.
All ports connected to an end node should show a lighted link/activity indicator.
If the test fails and the end node is turned on, the cable connection should be
checked, then the power connection should be verified too. If both are correctly set
up and there are still problems, we recommend contacting your dealer.
If a port, indicator, or any other part of the hub fails to work as described earlier,
the dealer should be contacted.
