Resumen del manual
Connect the Hub to the external Power supply (refer to section 2.4.1) 3. Use the normal ports to connect to PCs and computers. 4. Use the uplink port to connect to another hub or LAN switch. 1.Overview 1.Overview 616ds is a 16-port dual-speed fast Ethernet repeater hub for connection with multiple PCs to a workgroup LAN (Local Area Network) environment to sharenetwork resources. 1.1 Product goal AcerHub ALH-616ds provides high-speed and easy access to the LAN and Intranet both for SOHO (Small Office/ Home Office) and corporations. Itallows data transmission at speeds of 10 Mbps or 100Mbps, depending if theconnected device is running at 10Mbps or 100Mbps. Besides the high-speed data access, the AcerHub ALH-616ds also supports one uplink port for Class-II cascading connection between hub stacks. The uplink port will support the bridge function that permits a distance of 100 meters for data transmission in Class-II cascading and eliminates the repeater count limitation in IEEE 802.3u specifications. It will be easy to construct your own LAN with ALH616ds by this explicit expanding capability of data transmitting distances and user accounts. Installation of AcerHub ALH-616ds is relatively simple and all you have to dois plug the cables from the adapter cards to the ports, check the LEDs and you can start networking. 1.2 Product Features AcerHub ALH-616ds provides the following features: • 16-port dual-speed hub, each port is a 10/100 Mbps dual-speed connection with network speed auto-detection • Fully complies with IEEE 802.3 and 802.3u specifications • Built-in switching function to connect 10 and 100Mbps network domains • Stackable function to provide maximum stacking of 5 sets as a single hub count by SCSI-II cables • In slave hub mode, an uplink port with bridge function which provides scalable network expansion.(This function is very useful in constructing a large network,refer section 3.1 for details.) large network,refer section 3.1 for details.) Built-in switch auto-disable function to avoid data looping when stacking • External switching power supply for lower power consumption and heat emission • Compact design for SOHO desktop environment for easy networking 1.3 Product configuration The product configuration inside the package is shown in the figure 1-1.Please check the contents of the package if there is any missing part beforeusing the hub. The accessories of this product include: ALH-616ds dual-speed hub 1 piece External switching power adapter 1 piece Power cord 1 piece Stacking cable (SCSI-II) 1 piece Stacking kit 1 pairUser's manual 1 piece ALH-616ds Figure 1-1Product configuration of AcerHub ALH-616ds 2.Make Your Hub Ready 2.Make Your Hub Ready B.

Please follow the installing procedures to make your network ready: 2.1 Connecting to the external power supply Carefully unpack the AcerHub ALH-616ds and it's accessories. For the first time that you use this hub, please make sure there is nothing missing in the package. The procedures for connecting to the power outlet are: 2.1.1 Take out the hub and the power adapter from the packing box, as shown in Figure 2-1. Figure 2-1 Get the hub and power adapter 2.1.2 Place the hub on the desktop and remove the packing box of the power adapter, as shown in Figure 2-2. Figure 2-2 Put the hub on desktop and find the proper power adapter 2.1.3 2.1.3 Figure 2-3 Connect to the power adapter 2.1.4 Once the hub is connected to the power adapter, please connect the power adapter to a power cord, as shown in Figure 2-4. Figure 2-4 Connect to the power cord to wall outlet 2.1.5 2.1.5 Figure 2-5 Power on the hub and make it ready 2.2 Installing the hub on your working surface You have to find a solid working surface to place the hub and make sure the equipment is not close to any high voltage power source or over-heated sources. Also keep away from electronic equipment sensitive to electronic interference. The brief procedures of installing your hub should be: 2.2.1 Put the hub on a stable working surface, as shown in Figure 2-6. Figure 2-6 Lay hub on stable desktop 2.2.2 If you are installing more than one hub, please turn off the power of all hubs first. Then you can get another hub and place it above the previous one on the working surface, as shown in Figure 2-7. Finally, put the stacking kit inthe middle of two sides and click into the stacking hole in the plastic housing.Check if all hubs are tightly fastened by the stacking kits and proceed to next step. Figure 2-7 Unplug the power,and stack two hubs together AcerSOHO Series AcerSOHO Series 2.2.3 Get the stackable cable and connect the cable to the stacking connectoron the hub, as shown inFigure 2-8. Connect "Down" SCSI port of the upperhub to "Up" SCSI port of the lower hub. Any loose connection of the stackablecable will cause problems with network performance a...
