AT-RH505BE and AT-RH509BE Hub Overview

The AT-RH505BE and AT-RH509BE five (10 Mbps)and nine-port hubs
are 10Base-T desktop Ethernet hubs that include:

•

Four/eight 10Base-T ports (RJ45)

•

One BNC interface for 10Base2 backbone support and stacking

•

Easy to read LEDs for port and hub status

•

DC power connector

Both hubs are specifically designed for small office environments. Their
Velcro mounting kit makes it convenient for positioning on a file cabinet,
desk-side, a wall, or other locations.

Desktop and Wall Installation

To install a single AT-RH500 Series hub either with the Velcro kit or on
the desktop, do the following:

1. For wall installation, place two Velcro pads on the bottom of the
unit, then place the other pads on a wall. Align the unit’s Velcro
pads with the two pads on the wall to attach the unit to the wall.
For desktop installation, attach the four rubber feet to the bottom
of the unit. Then place the hub on a secure desktop.

Caution

Air vents must not be blocked and must have free access to the
room ambient air for cooling page 13.

2. Plug the power supply into a wall socket and connect the DC cable
to the unit. Check the LEDs to ensure that the PWR LED lights.
See Table 1.

3. Connect the twisted pair cables to the hub’s RJ45 ports. Connect
the other ends of the twisted pair cables to the computer’s network
adapter card.

1. Verify power for the hub and all attached devices by checking the
PWR LED on the hub to make sure it lights green.

2. Make sure that all devices are securely attached to the network and
that the adapter card(s) are operating.

3. Follow the recommended cable distances and repeater limitations.

4. A specific port may have been partitioned from the network.
Check for a defective network adapter or cable connection and
make sure that all devices are connected to the network by a single
path.

5. If thin coaxial cable is used, make sure that the cable run is termi­nated at both ends using a BNC terminator. If no cables or termi­nators are connected to the BNC port, ignore the status LED for
this port.
