Quick Start 3 The LinkBuilder FDDI System Software diskette, version 1.0, contains a readme file and a backup image for the flash EPROM. A 3-volt lithium battery is shipped with the management module. The battery is in a small bag inside the management module shipping container. If you ordered an STP media port module, one cascade connector will be shipped with the module. For complete instructions on installing the hub, the modules, and the battery, see Chapter 2, "Installing the Hub." 4. Place the hub either in an EIA 19-inch rack or on a table or desk. s For rack mounting, attach the two brackets to the front sides of the hub. Then attach the brackets to the front mounting rails of the rack. Use the eight screws that are supplied with the hub. (See Figures 2-1 and 2-2.) s For tabletop placement, fasten the rubber pads that come with the hub on the four bottom corners of the base unit. Unpacking the Modules The management modules and media port modules are packaged and shipped separately. Two modules (the management module and at least one media port module) plus the hub constitute the minimum functional setup. To unpack the modules, follow the steps below: CAUTION: Each module is packed in an antistatic bag to protect it during shipment. To avoid damaging any highly static-sensitive components on the module or the hub, be sure to reduce any static electricity on your person. One way to do this is to touch the metal part of the hub. You can maintain grounding by wearing a wrist strap attached to the hub. 1. Carefully remove each module from its shipping container and set it aside.

Quick Start
The
LinkBuilder FDDI System Software
diskette, version 1.0, contains a
readme file and a backup image for the flash EPROM.
A 3-volt lithium battery is shipped with the management module.
The
battery is in a small bag inside the management module shipping container.
If you ordered an STP media port module, one cascade connector will be
shipped with the module.
For complete instructions on installing the hub, the modules, and the
battery, see Chapter 2, “Installing the Hub.”
4.
Place the hub either in an EIA 19-inch rack or on a table or desk.
For rack mounting, attach the two brackets to the front sides of the
hub.
Then attach the brackets to the front mounting rails of the rack.
Use the eight screws that are supplied with the hub.
(See Figures 2-1
and 2-2.)
For tabletop placement, fasten the rubber pads that come with the hub
on the four bottom corners of the base unit.
Unpacking the Modules
The management modules and media port modules are packaged and shipped
separately.
Two modules (the management module and at least one media port
module) plus the hub constitute the minimum functional setup.
To unpack the
modules, follow the steps below:
CAUTION:
Each module is packed in an antistatic bag to protect it during
shipment.
To avoid damaging any highly static-sensitive components on the
module or the hub, be sure to reduce any static electricity on your person.
One
way to do this is to touch the metal part of the hub.
You can maintain
grounding by wearing a wrist strap attached to the hub.
1.
Carefully remove each module from its shipping container and set it
aside.
