HP 100Base-T Hub 8 Installation and Reference Guide
RJ-45 100Base-T Ports
This HP 100Base-T Hub 8 includes 8 100Base-T ports on the front panel;
of which Port 8 can also serve as a cascade port. Connect the MDI-X ports
to network devices such as workstations or servers, and the MDI port to a
network interconnection device such as another hub or switch. Remember
that you cannot connect to port 8 MDI-X and port 8 MDI at the same time.
Note: Use Category 5 straight-through twisted-pair cable (STP or UTP) for all
standard connections. However, if you must cascade between two hubs using
similar port types at both ends of the cable, use a crossover cable.
Rear Panel
The rear panel on the hub includes a power connector.
Power Connector
The power connector accepts range (13-19 Vdc), 800 mA minimum.
Caution: Use only the power adapter supplied with the hub. Using other power
adapters, including those meant for other HP networking products, may
result in damage to the equipment and will void the warranty.
