Installation Guide for the Model FE508 and FE516 Fast Ethernet Hubs 2. Set the hub on a table or shelf so that it has at least two inches (5 cm) of space on all sides. It is very important that the fans located in the rear panel are not blocked. Restricted airflow could cause overheating of the components. 3. Install any additional hubs in your stack. The stack of hubs can consist of any combination of Model FE508 and Model FE516 hubs (maximum of four hubs to a stack). For instructions on installing multiple hubs, see "Installing Multiple Hubs" later in this chapter. 4. Connect the devices to the ports on the hub using Category 5 UTP wiring and connectors to the RJ-45 connectors. Refer to Appendix C, "Fast Ethernet and Cabling Guidelines," for wiring rules and guidelines. 5. When installation for each hub in your stack is complete, connect the power cord(s) first to the power entry receptacle on the hub rear panel and then to the wall. 6. Continue with the steps in "Verifying Your Installation" later in this chapter. Installing the Hub in a Rack To install the hub in a rack, follow these steps: 1. Attach the mounting brackets (supplied in the rack mounting kit) to the sides of the hub using the screws provided. Hold a mounting bracket against each side of the hub, as shown in Figure 3-2, and align the countersunk screw holes in the bracket with the bracket mounting holes in the hub. Use a #1 Phillips screwdriver and tighten the screws to secure each bracket. 2. Attach the hub (with the mounting bracket) to the rack using two pan-head screws with nylon washers. Use a #2 Phillips screwdriver and tighten the screws to secure the hub to the rack. 3. Install any additional hubs in your stack. The stack of hubs can consist of any combination of Model FE508 and Model FE516 hubs (maximum of four hubs to a stack). For instructions on installing multiple hubs, see "Installing Multiple Hubs" later in this chapter. Installation 3-5
