Hardware Installation

Before you begin installing network cables, please take a few minutes to familiarize 

yourself with the dual-speed hub.  See the diagram below:

The green LED indicates the power status. The LED will light up when the AC 

power connector is properly connected to a power source.

There  are  two  (2)  separate  collision  LEDs  for  both  10Mbps  and  100Mbps 

segments.  If a collision is detected on a 10Mbps segment, the “10” LED will ash 

amber.  If a collision is detected on a 100Mbps segment, the “100” LED will ash 

amber.  Collisions occur when 2 or more ports receive data simultaneously

The 100TX LED lights up when 100Mbps operation is detected.  The 100TX LED 

will not light up if 10Mbps operation is detected.

The  LINK  /  ACTIVITY  LEDs  service  both  10BASE-T  and  100BASE-TX 

operation.  A steady green light indicates that a good link has been established.  A 

ashing green light indicates that data is being received.
If  the  Link  LED  does  not  display  a  steady  green  link  light,  please  check  the 

following:
  1.   Make sure the power is turned on for both the PC and EtheRx hub. 
  2.   Verify that the correct network drivers have been loaded on the PC.  Some 

   

network adapters require the drivers to be loaded to establish a proper link.

  3.   Make sure the correct cable type is selected.
