Hub To Hub Connection, Through Uplink Port - Planet DH-1600 User Manual

hub.
To test an end-node connection, connect the hub to power, then
turn the hub and the end node on. The link indicator for the port
should shine steadily and the 100Mbps LED should lit as well if
a 100Base-TX device is connected. If it does not, check the cable
and all connections.

Hub to Hub connection, through Uplink port

You can connect the hub to another 100Base-TX Class II Fast
Ethernet hub using a twisted-pair cable. Never connect the hub
to any other kind of hub, or to more than one 100Base-TX Class
II hub.
Make the connection as follows:
1. Make sure the "Uplink" port on the hub is free. That is,
port#16 or port#24 and the fiber-optic module are not
present.
2. Plug one end of the cable into "Uplink" port on the hub.
3. Plug the cable's other end into the available port (except
"Uplink" port) on the second hub.
