Installation: This chapter provides instructions for installing the Magnum DS8016 hubs. 

 

The location of a Magnum DS8016 Dual-Speed Hub is dependent on the physical 

layout of the network.  Typically the hub is placed where combinations of 10Mb and 100Mb 

network devices need to be connected to communicate with each other.  The 19” rack width 

size of the unit allows it to be conveniently placed in a wiring closet, an office or a lab area, 

and it can also be either shelf- or rack-mounted.  (See instructions in 3.1.2 below).  Rack-

mounting brackets are included with each unit.  

 

Locate an AC receptacle that is within six feet (2 meters) of the intended Magnum 

DS8016 site.  The rugged metal case of the Magnum DS8016 will normally protect it from 

accidental damage in a lab or workplace setting.  Maintain an open view of the front to 

visually monitor the status LEDs.  Keep an open area around the unit so that cooling can 

occur from the small fan on the left side while the unit is in operation. 

The Magnum DS8016 Dual-Speed Hub can be easily mounted on a table-top or 

any suitable horizontal surface, and has four rubber feet to provide stability without 

scratching finished surfaces.
