The LinkBuilder FDDI Workgroup Hub Site Selection The hub is housed in a 16.8 x 11.6 x 5.2 inch chassis that can be placed on a tabletop or easily mounted in an Electronics Industries Association (EIA) standard 19-inch rack. You can mount more than one hub in a rack depending on your network needs. Included with the chassis are four small rubber pads (to be inserted on the bottom four corners for tabletop placement) and two attachable brackets (to be attached on two sides for rack mounting) for your choice of placement. When selecting a site for the hub, remember that the hub can be connected to an external terminal for initial configuration. In this case you will need room in front of the chassis to place and access the terminal. Instead of attaching a terminal to the hub, you can configure the hub over the network by using the TCP Telnet protocol. You can also access the hub via a modem attached to the serial port.

The LinkBuilder FDDI Workgroup Hub
Site Selection
The hub is housed in a 16.8 x 11.6 x 5.2 inch chassis that can be placed on a
tabletop or easily mounted in an Electronics Industries Association (EIA)
standard 19-inch rack.
You can mount more than one hub in a rack depending
on your network needs.
Included with the chassis are four small rubber pads (to be inserted on the
bottom four corners for tabletop placement) and two attachable brackets (to be
attached on two sides for rack mounting) for your choice of placement.
When selecting a site for the hub, remember that the hub can be connected to an
external terminal for initial configuration.
In this case you will need room in
front of the chassis to place and access the terminal.
Instead of attaching a terminal to the hub, you can configure the hub over the
network by using the TCP Telnet protocol.
You can also access the hub via a
modem attached to the serial port.
