Introduction1
The Mini Hubs are the palm-size compact 10BASE-T hubs that
offer all the features of standard equipment rack-mount 10BASE-T
hubs, including automatic port participation, collision detection,
diagnostic LED report, and hub cascading.
Following is a summary of the features of the Mini Hubs:
9-port hubs
♦
. Each Mini Hub provides nine ports. Model DE809TP provides nine UTP ports (nine RJ-45 connectors); one of
thes e p orts can be used for either 10BASE-T con nection or
cascading with another Mini Hub. Model DE-809TC provides
eight UTP ports (eight RJ-45 connectors) and one BNC port.
Cascading
♦
. Through an “Uplink” switch, a UTP port of the
DE-809TP can be used for cascading with another Mini Hub.
The DE-809TC provides a BNC port for cascading with other
hubs without sacrificing any UTP port.
Backbone connection
♦
. The BNC port on the DE-809TC also
allows the portable Mini Hub to be attached to a coaxial
backbone t o be part of a larger network.
Installation flexibility
♦
. The Mini Hub is ideal for a small-size
network with nine or fewer nodes. Its cascading port however
permits the network to expand to 32 ports or more.
Compact, light we i g ht
♦
. The Mini Hub’s small size makes it
easy to install even at installation sites with tight space. It takes
little space on a desktop, and its light weight allows it to be
easily mounted on a wall.

Installation
Mounting Hub on Wall
The Mini Hub can be mounted on a wall. Four mounting slots are
provided on the bottom side of the hub for this purpose. Make sure
that the front panel is exposed to allow you to view the LEDs at
work.

Connecting AC Power Adapter
The Mini Hub uses an external AC power adapter. There is no
power switch. The hub is powered on once the AC power adapter is
conn ected to an AC power s ource and the hub’s AC power socket.
This section describes the connection procedure from a UTP port of
the hub to a UTP port of a station, bridge , router, and other
Ethernet devices. It does not describe the connection to a 10BASET hub. The UTP cable extended from a UTP port is called a UTP
segment, and can be up to 100 meters long.
8Installation
10BASE-T Ethernet Mini Hubs User’s Guide
Note that, for Mini Hub model DE-809TP, UTP port labeled “9”
must be in the
Normal
position in order to be connectable to a
station, bridge or router. To connect this port to a UTP port of a
10BASE-T hub, the port must be in the
Uplink
position (see section
Cascading Hubs Through UTP Cable in this chapter for details).
The button to the right of the UTP port labeled “9” is used to switch
between the
Normal
and the
Uplink
position.
Installation9
Connecting Thin Coaxial Segment
The BNC port on Mini Hub model DE-809TC is used to connect to
a thin coaxial segment. Connect a T-connector to the BNC
conn ector, then connect bot h end s of the T-connect or to the thin
coaxial cable. If the thin coaxial segment terminates at the hub,
attach a 50-ohm terminator to one end of the T-connector.
10Installation
10BASE-T Ethernet Mini Hubs User’s Guide
Cascading Hubs Through Thin
Coaxial Cable
The BNC port on the Mini Hub model DE-809TC can be used to
cascade hubs together. You may cascade DE-809TC hubs together
through the BNC ports. You may also cascade the DE-809TC with
any other IEEE 802.3 Ethernet standard 10BASE-T hubs equipped
with BNC ports.
You may attach up to thirty nodes to a thin coaxial segment. In this
sense, it is possible to cascade a maximum of thirty hubs together
through the thin coaxial cable.
Be sure to leave a minimum of 0.5 meter (2 feet) of cable between
two BNC ports.
Installation11
Cascading Hubs Through UTP
Cable
Any of the UTP p orts can be used t o ca s cade hu bs togeth er. Note
that when two UTP ports of two hubs are connected together, the
wires inside the UTP cable must be cr ossed over. See app endix A
for the wire cross-over. Mark all crossed-over UTP cables clearly so
they will not be used by mistake for normal connection.
If you use Mini Hub model DE-809TP, UTP port labeled “9” is
especially designed for hub cascading. When this port is in the
Uplink
position, its signal reception and transmi s sion are reversed.
This allows you to dispense with the trouble of crossing the UTP
cable’s wires. Putting this port in the
by pressing down the button located next to the port.
Note: Never cause a loop when you cascade hubs since this might
cause unpredictable results.

Collision.
Blinking:
◊
Packet collision is occurring. Packet collisions
are not an abnormal situation. Collisions occur when two
or more computers transmit packets on the network
simultaneously, and a contention takes place on the
network line. The computers should then back off, then
retry transmission. This trial-and-error process is repeated
until no collision takes place. Note: Excessive collisions
may result when multiple hubs are cascaded through a thin
coaxial segment and many stations are connected on the
network.
Off:
◊
No packet collision.

for bad ca bl e or loose connector s. For ca scaded h ubs, check
to see if UTP cable contains crossed-over wires. Also check
for a “power good” condition at both ends of the
connection. If you suspect that the hub port is damaged,
contact your authorized dealer for service.
