Hardware Installation 
Before you begin installing network cables, please take a few moments to 
familiarize yourself with the EtheRx 16-Port and 24-Port Ethernet Hubs.  The 
functions on the front and rear panels are illustrated below.

Power LED 
The green LED indicates the power status. The LED will light when the AC 
power cord is connected from a power source to the hub and the power switch 
is turned on. 
Utilization LEDs 
Kingston’s  Smart Monitor
 bar-graph LEDs for utilization and collision 
provide easy monitoring of network traffic. There are five Utilization LEDs to 
display the amount of network traffic in five percentage levels. The amount of 
data traffic is measured in frames per second (FPS), then calculated into the 
following percentage forms: 1%, 7%, 15%, 30%, and 60%. The LEDs will 
light in a bar-graph fashion based on the network activity. 
Collision LEDs 
There are five Collision LEDs to display the amount of data packet collisions 
in five percentage levels. The amount of data collisions is measured in 
collisions per second (CPS), then calculated into the following percentage 
levels: 1%, 7%, 15%, 30%, and 60%. The LEDs will light in a bar-graph 
fashion based on the amount of collisions.
