power supply. Connect the AC power cord from the rear of the unit to an AC
electrical outlet.

The AUI port is a 15-pin D-sub connector. It is a general purpose port for
backbone or mixed media connections for 10BASE2, 10BASE5, 10BASE-T,
or FOIRL connections using a proper external transceiver.

BNC Port

This port is labeled BNC, and has a built-in transceiver for direct 10BASE2
connection using thin coaxial cable. Use RG-58 A/U or RG-58 C/U type
cable. Refer to Appendix B for 10BASE2 cabling guidelines when connecting
to this port.

Stacking Ports

The two ports are labeled“Stack-In” and “Stack-Out” for stacking up to five
(5) EtheRx Pro-Series hubs in any combination of 16-Port and 24-Port models.
