The regular RJ-45 ports support the standard for hubs-to-users twisted pair wiring: pin 1= receive+, 2 = receive-, 3 = transmit+, 6 = transmit-, other pins not used. The RJ-45 port with the up-link switch is normally the same, but when switched it supports the standard for up-links using twisted pair wiring, i.e., the transmit and the receive pairs are exchanged:... - Page 7 Stackable Personal Hubs Switches: Up-Link: MDI-X (Media Dependent Interface - Crossover) manual slide switch, converts RJ-45 port #8 from a regular (=) user segment port to a crossover (X) up-link port for on-off connection to a backbone or another cascaded hub.

Page 13: Features And Benefits
ν Interconnect to an Existing Ethernet Network Stackable Personal Hubs provide a manual Up-Link switch that allows one RJ-45 port to connect into an existing Ethernet environment (such as the central hub for the building or area) via 10BASE-T wiring. -
Page 14: Applications
Simply plug the existing networked device's network cable into one of the ST80’s front RJ-45 ports. The Up-Link port (with switch set to “X”) connects via 10BASE-T cabling to the existing network outlet. Optionally, a mini-transceiver may be connected to the rear-mounted AUI port to provide connectivity to any standard Ethernet media type. - Page 15 10BASE-T wiring is used, and full-length Ethernet segments are supported on all ports. In this application, the Up-Link switch is in the straight-through or “==” position so that port 8 is a user port, not an up-link to another hub.

Page 23: Cascading St80 Personal Hubs With The Up-Link Port
Note that a stack of ST80s is a single “unit” for repeater functionality. Magnum ST80 hubs may also be cascaded in networks with other Magnum Hubs (such as Magnum Personal Hubs, Magnum 1000 Workgroup Hubs, and Magnum 3000 Stackable Hubs and Concentrators) as well as with Ethernet hubs from other manufacturers. -
Page 24: Operation
Stackable Personal Hubs OPERATION This section details the various operational features of Magnum ST80 Personal Hubs, including a description of the LED indicators. Stackable Personal Hubs are fully compliant with the Ethernet Version 2/IEEE 802.3 Repeater Specification for CSMA/CD 10 Mbps operation and will function accordingly. -
Page 25: Using The Up-Link Switch
When set to the “=” position, port 8 is set up as a user port. When the switch is in the “X” position, port 8 operates as an up-link port. To ensure that the up- link switch is in the proper position, observe port 8’s LINK/TX LED. -
Page 26: Using The Stack Enable Switch
The Stack Enable switch of the ST80 is used to configure each unit of the stack. If an ST80 is being used as a non-stacked unit, the Stack Enable switch must be in the “OFF” position. When two or more ST80s are stacked, the bottom unit should be set to the “OFF”... -
