Page 7: Introduction
The EtheRx Workgroup hubs support up to four (4) or eight (8) UTP (Unshielded Twisted-Pair) ports for 100BASE-TX network connections. Both models include a cascade switch on the last UTP port (Port 4 or Port 8) which supports both straight-through and crossover cable types. The UTP ports use dual-color LEDs to show three states of operation: link, activity and partition/error. -

Page 12: Cascade Switch
Cascade Switch The Cascade Switch provides cable wiring flexibility on the last UTP Port (i.e., Port 4 or Port 8) for connecting to a workstation or cascading to another hub. By default, the last UTP port is set to “Crossover” (left side) as a standard, internally-crossed port, or MDI-X port. - Page 13 I 0 0 B A S E - T X C l a s s Repeater UTIL % LINK / ACTIVITY / PARTITION C O L L KNE8TX/WG CASCADE Class repeater Maximum cable 100m length from hub to node.
