    LEDs, see pages 8 and 9. Crossover Button The Express 330T hubs have a button that toggles port 1 from MDI-X to MDI. This allows you to connect to a switch, or daisy-chain to another hub, without using a crossover cable. For more information, see pages 6-7 and 12-13.

    10Mbps segment and 100Mbps segment simultaneously if the 10Mbps and 100Mbps segments are bridged externally (through a switch). • In a stack of Express 330T hubs, only one bridge is active at a time. If that hub fails or is removed, the next hub automatically provides bridging for the entire stack.

  • Page 9: Daisy-Chaining Hubs

    Stacking Hubs The Express 330T hub uses a unique set of connectors on the back of the hubs so they can be stacked together. By stacking hubs you can: • Increase the number of available ports, yet still treat the stack as a single repeater.

  • Page 10: Optional Modules

    • Create separate collision domains. The Modules are installed in the Module A slot on the back of the hub. You can install a module for each hub in a stack. The Express 330T will not accept modules from the Express 200 series hubs.

  • Page 11: Configuring Modules

    Configuring Modules Normally you will not have to make any changes to the optional modules because they are designed to automatically configure themselves for the attached device. The controls located on the modules will allow you to make limited changes to solve connectivity issues. For complete control over the Fiber and Ethernet Modules you will need to purchase the optional Management Module.

    100Mbps Clients Clients In a mixed environment of 10Mbps and 100Mbps devices, the Express 330T hub can provide the 100Mbps bandwidth to the clients (servers and power users) that require it. Simultaneously, the hub can provide connections for older 10Mbps devices.

  • Page 14: Cabling Devices

    Cabling Devices Media Requirements Incorrect cabling is often the cause of network configuration problems. Read the next two pages if you’re unsure of your requirements. 100Base-TX The 100Base-TX Fast Ethernet specification requires that you use CAT 5 UTP cabling to operate at 100Mbps. If you use lower grade cabling (CAT 3 or CAT 4), you may get a connection, but will soon experience data loss or slow performance.

  • Page 15: Testing A Cable

    Testing a cable A quick way to check a cable’s link integrity is to plug one end into port 1 and the other end into port 2. Make sure the MDI/MDI-X button is out. Check the Activity LEDs for ports 1 and 2. If the LEDs are on, you have a functioning crossover cable.

  • Page 16: Frequently Asked Questions

    Can I daisy-chain a 100Mbps hub to the 330T hub with UTP cabling? Yes. The Express 330T is a Class II device, so you can daisy-chain two hubs operating at 100Mbps a maximum of 5m. See diagram on page 7.

  • Page 17: Troubleshooting

    LED will not come on. • Make sure the device you’ve connected to a port is a 10Base-T or 100Base-TX device. The Express 330T Stackable Hubs don’t support 100Base-T4 devices running at 100Mbps. However, they do support T4 devices running at 10Mbps.
