Installation manual

• Twisted pair Category 5 or 5e patch cord for hub-to-
hub connections, usually referred to as “hub cascad-
ing”, for more than 5 ports
• Twisted pair Category 5 or 5e patch cords for wallplate
Cat 5 jack to network interface card (NIC) connections
at your PCs
Note: Each PC and peripheral in the network will also re-
quire a 10Base-T compatible NIC or adapter and
Windows 98 or higher (or similar operating system and
associated software) to function on the network.
The 10Base-T Network Hub has five Category 5 or 5e
connectors for attaching up to five 10Base-T based
workstations. To establish such connections:
• Ensure that both the hub and the soon-to-be con-
nected workstation are in the OFF modes
• Plug one end of the patch cord into an available
10Base-T hub port
• Plug a patch cord at the other end of the link into the
workstation NIC
EXAMPLE
Your client will have a PC and printer in a home office
and will want to access the printer from a PC in another
bedroom. Wire the unit as shown in the diagram below:
• The two office outlets (the office PC and the printer)
will wire to ports 1 and 3
• The bedroom outlet will wire to port 5
• Install Category 5 or 5e patch cords from ports 1, 3,
and 5 to ports on a 10Base-T Network Hub, following
Leviton’s instructions for that device; the two PCs and
the printer will now be networked together
✍
Take Note: When your 10Base-T network needs to ex-
pand beyond the hub’s five available connections, you can
add a second hub, cascading it with the original. This hub
features a selective NORMAL/UPLINK switch that allows you
to use Category 5 or 5e patch cords when cascading hubs.
Be sure that the slide switch next to the fifth port is switched
to the UPLINK position when cascading your hubs. A maxi-
mum of four hubs can be cascaded, allowing for a total of 14
network stations to be connected.
