The 10/100Base-T Network Hub
Sharing the same properties as the 10Base-T Network
Hub, but with a faster speed of 100Mbps, the
10/100Base-T Network Hub is a controller for an in-
house or small office network. Patch cords connected
from the hub ports to the structured wiring system con-
nectors allow 10/100Base-T compatible data devices
throughout the home to be networked together. These
devices (such as PC’s and peripherals) will need net-
work cards or adapters and related software.
Like the 10Base-T, the10/100Base-T hub easily installs
inside a SMC through the use of mounting pins. It can
be mounted horizontally or vertically. Simply align the
pins with the mounting holes and push them in, secur-
ing the hub to the SMC.
✍
Take Note: When your 10/100Base-T network needs to
expand beyond the hub’s five available connections, you can
add a second hub, cascading it with the original. The hub fea-
tures an UPLINK port that allows you to use Category 5 or 5e
patch cords when cascading hubs.
The illustrations below show both the front and rear
view of the hub.
FRONT (with LED indicators)
A. Power (GREEN) Indicator: Lights while the hub is
powered up
B. Collision (AMBER) Indicator: Lights when the hub
detects a collision on the network
C. Link/Active (GREEN) Indicators: Show the status of
the data link and remains on when a good connec-
tion is established, and blinks if the data is being re-
ceived on that segment
D. 100Base-T (GREEN ) Indicators: Show the status to
a link partner and the 100Mbps IDLE symbol is de-
tected, and ‘off’ when port is running in 10Mbps or
no link is established.
E. Cat 5/5e Ports: The hub is equipped with 5 Category
5 or 5e ports for making 10/100Base-T hub-to-
Category 5 or 5e Module connections
F. UPLINK Port: Allows you to connect to a switch or
cascade to a hub with Category 5 or 5e cords
