Connect Devices To The Hub - HP J3128A AdvanceStack 10Base-T Hub-8E Installation And Reference Manual

Marking the Location
I m p o r t a n t
1. Mark the screw hole locations 5 11/16 inches (14.5 cm) apart
on the mounting surface. Make sure you allow enough room
to make the cable connections to the hub and to access the
cables if they have to be moved.
2. Using a Phillips (cross-head) screwdriver, screw in the two
pan head wood screws leaving 1/8-inch (3 mm) between the
screw head and the mounting surface. (You may need to
pre-drill the surface first with a 3/32-inch bit.)

4. Connect Devices to the Hub

RJ-45 Ports
You can connect printers, servers, personal computers, and other
Ethernet devices to these ports. Each computer must have a LAN
adapter card.
To connect a device to the hub, follow these steps:
1. Push the twisted-pair RJ-45 plug into the RJ-45 jack until the tab
on the plug clicks into place. Use up to 100 meters of cable
between the hub and an end node.
2. Connect the other end of the cable to a computer's LAN adapter
card, printer interface card, server or other device.
A hub should be mounted only to a
wall or wood surface that is at least
1/2-inch (12.7 mm) plywood or its
equivalent.
