    Front Panel Layout The Master Hub’s (WH-2400) front panel combines an LED Panel, 24 MDI-X ports and an MDI-II port as shown in Fig. 2.1. Figure 2.1 WH-2400M Font Panel. WH-2400M / WH-2400S User's Manual...

  • Page 12: Ports

    Figure 2.2 WH-2400S Font Panel. Ports There are 25 10Mbps UTP ports on the front panel of both WH-2400M and WH- 2400S. In the case of WH-2400M ports 1~8 are shared M-Link ports for Uplink Slave hubs (WH-2400S) network traffic. As well as Management traffic these ports could also be used to connect workstations as any other MDI-X ports.

  • Page 13: Leds

    Hardware Overview LEDs The LED panels for both, WH-2400M and WH-2400S are a storehouse of information, which visually indicate the physical connections, traffic flow, Utilization, and Collision. The LED functions are described under Common LEDs for those that are common to both WH-2400M and WH-2400S and Exclusive LEDs for those are exclusive to either WH-2400M or WH-2400S.

  • Page 14: Common Leds

    Hardware Overview Common LEDs Most LEDs that are common to both WH-2400M & WH-2400S and are explained in this section. Port There is an LED for every port indicating the following status conditions of the port. The legend located on the left of the ports LED shows the relationship between the LEDs and the ports status at any given time.

  • Page 15: Unit Id

    The ID LED indicates the assigned Unit ID number. In a stand-alone case, the ID number will be read as “0”. Figure 2.8 WH-2400M ID LED. When slave hubs are cascaded to the Master hub they are automatically assigned the numbers 2~9, while the Master assumes ID “1”...

  • Page 16: Collision Ratio

    Collision Ratio = (number of packets collided / number of packets transmitted) * 100. FCS/Align Err The FCS/Align Err LED glows, amber indicating there were corrupted packets during transmissions. Alignment error occurs, when not all the bytes in a packet are received. Figure 2.11 FCS/Align LED. PLANET Web Hub...

  • Page 17: Exclusive Leds

    The Late Collision LED glows, amber when collisions occur after 512 bits are received causing an incomplete transmission. Figure 2.13 Late Collision. Exclusive LEDs Some LEDs are exclusive to either WH-2400M or WH-2400S, their purpose is described in this section. WH-2400M / WH-2400S User's Manual...
