+ Model DE-824TP Ethernet Hub The connector numbered as Port 1 is equipped with a switch labeled “Uplink” When the Uplink switch is in the “off (tall) position, the Port 1 connector is wired “straight” to the supporting circuitry, and Port 1 is then identical with each of the twenty-three other numbered ports. When the Uplink switch is in the “on” (depressed) position, a pin inter- change is switched into the wiring for the Port 1 connector, to provide a cross-over, and thus allow use of a strai

two connectors would cancel one another, and the hub-to-hub connection would fail.) Thus the rule for making a hub-to-hub connection with twisted-pair cable is as follows: To make a hub-to-hub connection with a straight cable, Uplink must be selected at one end of the cable, and Uplink must not be selected at the other end of the cable. To make a hub-to-hub connection with a cross-over cable, Uplink must not be selected at either end of the cable. To connect the Ethernet Hub to a thin coaxial ca

Thin coax Segment v Sometimes several Ethernet Hubs must be co- located to support a larger array of stations than can be handled by a single Ethernet Hub. Then it is useful to stack the Ethernet Hubs by joining their BNC connectors with 0.5 meter patches of thin coaxial cable. Such stacking is just a special case of thin coaxial cable connection as treated above, and the terminator rule is the same: If the stack is at the end of the incoming cable, then a 50-ohm terminator must be substituted f

To connect the Ethernet Hub to a thick coaxial cable (lOBase cable), it is necessary to have a lOBase Ethernet transceiver (tap) on the cable at the Ethernet Hub’s position. Then run an AUI cable between the transceiver’s AUI connector and the AUI connector on the rear panel of the Ethernet Hub. AUI port -AU1 cable Transceiver x Connecting Power For compatibility with electric service in most areas of the world, the Ethernet Hub’s power supply automatically adjusts to line power in the range 100

Turn on power to the Ethernet Hub by switching its rear-panel power switch to the on position. LED Indicators LED indicators are located on the front panel of the Ethernet Hub.

One Link/Rx LED for each numbered port. Steady green (Link state) indicates that the port has good linkage to its partner device. Flashing green (Receive state) indicates that the port is receiving data from its partner device. If the port is connected but the Link/Rx LED is dark, check whether (1) the Ethernet Hub and the partner device both have power, (2) the port’s cable is firmly seated in its connectors in the Ethernet Hub and in the partner device, (3) the connecting cable is good and is

About this Guide This guide provides instructions for instal-ling all of the products described below. These D-Link@ Ethernet Hubs are all Plug and Play compliant for easy installation. / - \ DE81 2TP+ DE-81 6TP DE-824TP When designing your cable configuration, it is necessary to strictly observe the Ethernet cabling rules. This manual assumes familiarity with the fundamental Ethernet cabling rules and limits; it only describes the details of cable connection. 1

Rack Mounting The Ethernet Hub may stand alone, or may be mounted in a standard 19-inch equip-ment rack. Rack mounting produces an orderly installation when you have a number of related network devices. Use the six supplied screws to fasten the supplied mounting brackets to either end of the hub, then fasten the hub into the rack. 2

Installing Network Cables Your Ethernet Hub is denominated as an 12-port, or 16-port, or 24-port Ethernet Hub according to the number of its front-panel 1OBaseT ports. Additionally it has two ports whose connectors are on the rear panel: one lOBase2 port (BNC connector), and one lOBase5 port (AUI connector). These two un-numbered rear-panel ports are logically equivalent with the numbered ports on the front panel of the Ethernet Hub. By using a rear-panel connector of the Ethernet Hub to connect
