with FCC Standards
Hub
1. Set the hub on a flat surface or mount it on a wall and choose a location that:
FOR HOME OR OFFICE USE
• Is close to an electrical outlet.
RJ-45
connector
• Exposes the front and rear panels to allow connection of the network cables and easy monitoring
of the LEDs.
To install the hub on a wall, measure the distance between the mounting holes at the back of the
hub and mark the wall to match the location of the mounting holes. Drill pilot holes at the two
marked locations on the wall and screw two 5/16-inch diameter flathead screws (provided) into
the wall so that the screws protrude 1/18 inch to 3/16 inch. Slide the hub down onto the screws.
