This document was prepared using VAX DOCUMENT, Version 2.1. 1 ------------------------------------------------------------ Overview 1.1 Description The Digital Ethernet Multiport Office Network Repeater has five shielded or unshielded twisted-pair ports for network expansion. The repeater can amplify, retime, and retransmit signals from one port to another, allowing a maximum cable distance of 100 meters per port. This installation guide shows you how to mount the repeater to a wall and connect it to the network. Before you begin, select a location to mount the repeater that best suits your needs. 1.2 Contents Your repeater is supplied with a power cord, power supply, and two adhesive-backed Velcro pads for mounting. 1.3 Installation 1. Mount the repeater vertically (preferred) using the Velcro pads that are packaged with your unit. (NOTE: You can mount the repeater with screws [not included] using the two key holes to slide over the head of the screws.) See Figure 1-1. 2. Connect the power cord from the wall receptacle to the power connector on the power supply. 3. Connect the power supply cable to the power connector on the repeater. (NOTE: When connected to the power source, the green LED near the power connector on the rear of the unit comes on.) 1-1 4. Connect the primary I/O twisted-pair cable from the main HUB to the primary I/O port connector. 5. Connect the remaining RJ45 ports to any devices using 10Base-T compatible twisted-pair cables. (NOTE: The ports can be used in any order.) 1.4 LED Activity The DECminiNET repeater has seven green LEDs (Figure 1-1). · Ports 1 through 5 - These turn on when power is turned on. They remain on until there is network activity. Then, only the ports with network connection remain on. · Activity - This LED (labeled with a #) turns on when there is network activity. When there is no activity, the LED is off. · Power - This turns on when power is supplied to the repeater. 1.5 Specifications Enclosure dimensions: 18.75 x 6.0 x 3.5 cm (7-3/8 x 2-3/8 x 1-3/8 in) Power consumption: 3.5 W Power supply: H7810-AA Operating environment: Temperature (at sea level): 15°C - 32°C (59°F - 90°F) Relative humidity: 8% - 80% (non-condensing) Radiated emissions: FCC Class A VDE Class B IEEE Compliance: ANSI/IEEE 802.3 CSMA/CD (Ethernet) Local Area Networks Specification.
