Ethernet™ Pocket Hub™
Networking the 0402 Ethernet Pocket Hub
The 0402 Pocket Hub can function as the network backbone in both simple and complex networks.
When centrally located in a small installation, the 0402 Pocket Hub alone provides a simple, economical network solution.
When linked to other 0402 Pocket Hubs or to other 802.3 compliant Ethernet repeaters, the Pocket Hubs function in complex Ethernet networks.

5. MAINTENANCE
WARNING: DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, open and attempt to repair the 0402 Pocket Hub or power supply adapter unit. Failure to observe this warning could result in personal injury or death from electrical shock.
NOTE: Failure to observe the above warning will immediately void the warranty.
Fault Isolation
If two network devices fail to communicate through the 0402 Pocket Hub, consider the following:
Are the LEDs described in the previous section functioning properly?
Do network devices have Link Integrity enabled?
Do network devices communicate when the 0402 Pocket
Hub is not installed between them?
Is flat or silver satin wire used in site internal wiring?
Are internal wiring patch cords, punch down blocks, and
wall jacks properly pinned or configured?
Is the AUI cable unbroken and properly connected?
Are network interface cards properly configured?
Technical Support Contact
For assistance in fault isolation and in maintaining the 0402 Pocket Hub, contact:
Technical Support (800) 260-1312
or your local distributor.
0402 Ethernet Pocket Hub Connectors and Status LEDs
RJ-45 Connectors
Four (4) 10BaseT RJ-45 jack connectors are located at one end of the 0402 Pocket Hub. The RJ-45 jacks support connection to shielded or unshielded 100 ohm twisted pair 10BaseT cable.
Power Supply Adapter Connectors
An external power supply adapter connector is located at the other end of the 0402 Pocket Hub. The power supply adapter connector supplies external power.
Status LEDs
Power and Link/Transmit status LEDs are located at the side of the 0402 Pocket Hub. The Power LED indicates connection to power. The Link/ Transmit LEDs track the four 0402 Pocket Hub connections to 10BaseT.

4. OPERATION
The 0402 Pocket Hub normally requires no intervention beyond occasionally monitoring the Power and Link/Transmit LEDs.
Monitoring Power LED
The green Power LED is illuminated when the Pocket Hub is connected to power.
Monitoring Link/Transmit LEDs
Each of the green Link/Transmit LEDs , associated with one of the eight RJ-45 ports:
is illuminated when a device is connected to the RJ-45 port
flashes slowly as data is transmitted
flashes quickly if the associated RJ-45 port has been
automatically partitioned.

Link/Transmit LEDs
2. SITE CONSIDERATIONS
The site for the 0402 Ethernet Repeater Hub must provide:
AC power outlet for each Hub
Adequate ventilation
Standard environmental conditions
Isolation from electrical noise, including radio transmitters
and broadband amplifiers, motors, high power electrical lines, or fluorescent light fixtures.
Additionally:
The twisted pair cables should not run in the same conduit with power line cables.
Phone lines should be separated from data cables.
Flat or silver satin wires should not be used.
And:
Since the 0400A Ethernet Pocket Hub functions as an Ethernet Repeater, the entire 0400A Ethernet Repeater Hub installation should comply with the IEEE Ethernet 802.3 specification, including segment number.
RJ-45 connected cables should be configured as crossover or straight through according to installation requirements.

Connecting Power to 0402 Pocket Hub
To power ON the 0402 Pocket Hub:
1. Locate the power receptacle on the back of the 0402 Pocket Hub.
2. Connect the 0402 Pocket Hub power connector end of the power supply adapter to the Pocket Hub.
3. Connect the external power connector end of the power supply adapter to external AC power.
NOTE: After the power supply adapter is connected to the 0402 Pocket Hub and to external power, the green Power LED is illuminated.
Ensuring Correct Segmemt Number
Ethernet 802.3 specifications define segment number, as well as cable characteristics. NOTE: A segment is the cable connection between cable interfaces in an Ethernet LAN.
Segment Number
When connecting Pocket Hubs, the transmission path between any two Data Terminating Equipment (DTE) terminals can consist of no more than five segments.
To assign segment numbers to cable connections:
1. Determine the two terminals in the network which are separated by the greatest number of segments.
2. Assign a segment path between the terminals by labeling the cable connected to one of the terminals segment 1 and the segment connected to the other terminal segment n (n = total number of segments 5).
3. To verify that no segment paths contain more than n segments, assign segment paths and numbers to all other terminals.
