1. Power (GREEN) Indicator
When the power LED is lit, it indicates that the hub’s power is on.
2. Collision (RED) Indicator
This LED indicator blinks when the hub detects a collision on the network.
3. Link/ Transmit (GREEN) Indicators
These LEDs Indicator light green when the respective connection is okay. A
blinking LED indicates that transmission is occurring on the segment.
4. Polarity/ Receive (YELLOW) Indicators
These LEDs Indicator light red when data wires have been reversed (the
polarity has been reversed) A blinking LED to indicates data is being received
on the segment.
5. Partition Indicators
Partition is indicated by the alternate flashing of the green and yellow LEDs

Making Network Connections
The 910H hub has eight RJ-45 connectors for attaching up to eight 10BASE-T
based workstations. To establish such connections:
1. Ensure that both the Hub and the soon-to-be-connected workstation are in the
power off mode.
2. Plug one end of the UTP cable into an available 10BASE-T hub port.
3. Plug the other end into the workstation’s network interface card. The
following figure 3 illustrates a simple network topology using a 10BASE-T
hub-to-workstation connections.
The 910H hub has one BNC port for making 10BASE2 hub-to-workstation
connections. To establish such connections:
1. Ensure that both the Hub and the soon-to-be-connected workstation are in the
power off mode.
2. Plug one end of the coaxial cable into the Hub’s BNC port. Please refer to
figure 3 if you are having trouble locating this port.
3. Connect the other end of the coaxial cable to the workstation’s BNC connector
located on the network interface card. Please refer to figure 3 for an illustration
of such a connection.
Note: If port 1 (BNC PORT) doesn’t connect to the hub port1 (BNC PORT) is indicated by the
alternate flashing of the green and yellow LEDs. The port 1 LEDs don’t flash after
connecting cable to port 1 and using hub.
The following diagram illustrates 10BASET and 10BASE-2 network connections
using the hubs BNC connector.

Cascading Hubs
When you 10BASE-T network needs to grow past the eight available UTP
connections provided by the hub you should consider purchasing an additional
hub and cascading it with the original hub.
The 910H features a cascade enable switch. The switch allows you to use straight
UTP cables instead of the traditional cables when cascading hubs on port 9.
The following diagram illustrates 10BASE-T cascading:

Wall Mounting
After you have decided on a suitable location for mounting the hub, mark the
location for mounting two screws 165mm apart. At the marked locations, drill
two holes and insert a tapping screw in each hole. Align the hub’s wall-mount
slots with the screws and slide the hub down until the screws are securely last to
the hub. You can now complete the installation procedure by marking the
necessary cable connections.
