CHAPTER 2 GENERAL
DESCRIPTION
The EH-501/EH-801 hub is a standard Ethernet concentrator that
re-times and re-transmits the signal to each network station on
the LAN. Each Hub has six/nine modular RJ-45 STP ports for
attaching network devices (file server, bridge, and workstations)
or additional concentrators.
The Cover Panel of EH-501/EH-801
On the cover panel of this Hub, there are Power, Collision
LED(EH-501) and ports' Active LED indicators. For each RJ-45
STP port, there are one LED indicators - LINK and Receiving
LED. These LEDs help in diagnosing line troubles and indicate
the status of data transmission.

(EH-801) and one power port.
Product Characteristics
Each workstation connects to the EH-501/EH-801 hub in a
star configuration, which means each workstation connects
only to the central concentrator.
To attach a workstation to the concentrator, you can use
your own STP/UTP cable or the existing STP/UTP cable
installed in the building that is wired through the
telephone punch-down block to wire directly from the
workstation to the EH-501/EH-801 Hub.
The network cable that runs from the EH-501/EH-801 Hub
to the network station is called a cable segment. The
maximum number of cable segments between any two
stations is Five (5 segments) . The maximum distance for a
cable segment is 328 feet (100 meters).
The IEEE 802.3 standard-compliant EH-501/EH-801 Hub
supports both 10Base-2 (EH-801) and 10Base-T Ethernet
environments. The following table compares the two:

CHAPTER 3 INSTALLATION
Getting Ready to Install the EH-501/EH-801
Before installing the EH-501/EH-801 Hub, you should determine
the installation location.
♦Make sure that the cable distance between the concentrator
and the host device is not longer than 328 feet (10Base-T), or
606 feet(10Base-2) including all connection cables.
♦Check if you are using a external AC power adapter, 7.5 V DC
output, 400~700mA required.
Warning:
Please make sure you are using a power adapter of the right
type; otherwise, the warranty will be invalidated.
♦Make sure there is enough room to service the Hub and to
make cable connections to the rear panel.
♦Avoid direct sunlight, heat vents and warm air exhaust from
other equipment.
Installing the Hub
You can place the Hub on a desk or mount it on the wall.
The wall-mounting design provides space-saving and flexibility
in cable routing and expansion. Fix the two screws on the wall,
8
as Figure 3-1. Hook up the two front rubber pads on the Hub
bottom to the crews.
Figure 3-1 Mounting the hub on the wall
Follow the steps below to attach the power adapter to the Hub:
1.Insert the jack end of the power adapter into the power port of
EH-501/EH-801.
2.Insert the plug end of the power adapter into a grounded power
outlet.
Now, the Power LED indicator on the cover panel of the Hub
should be lit. If this LED is still off, check the cable connection,
or refer to Chapter 4, "Troubleshooting".
If you want to power off the Hub, unplug the power adapter from
the grounded power outlet.
Linking Ethernet Nodes to the Hub
You can connect a workstation or file server to the EH-501/EH-
801 through the STP port.
1.Insert one end of the STP/UTP cable to any STP port of the
Hub.
