Model FE116 Fast Ethernet Hub Installation Giude
Congratulations on your purchase of the NETGEAR
™
Model FE116 Fast Ethernet Hub. This hub
delivers standards-based, plug-and-play networking solutions for small businesses, home offices,
and low-density workgroups of larger companies
.
The Model FE116 hub has the following features:
• Sixteen IEEE 802.3-compliant 100BASE-T ports (sometimes referred to as RJ-45 or network
ports) that provide effective information exchange, resource sharing, and a client/server or
peer-to-peer applications solution with simple unshielded twisted pair (UTP) wiring (The
network ports on the Model FE116 hub are referred to as vista RJ-45 network ports because
they have built-in LEDs that monitor individual port status.)
• Class II compliance, which enables network expansion by connecting two hubs together
• Easy plug-and-play installation with no software to configure, thus saving time and
minimizing the potential for configuration errors
• Normal/Uplink push button to simplify network extension and for connecting with other
hubs (In the Uplink mode, two hubs can be daisy-chained using simple, straight-through
UTP cables.)
• Automatic partitioning and reconnection of a port that has excessive collisions or is jabbering
• Limited five-year warranty on the unit and one-year warranty on the power supply

Model FE116 Fast Ethernet Hub Installation Giude
The instructions provided in this guide are for installing and using the Model FE116 hub.
LEDs
There are two LEDs on the front panel of the hub and two on each vista 100BASE-T network port
(RJ-45 connector) that allow you to monitor the status of the hub and the network. The table
describes the activity of the LEDs.
Vista 100BASE-T Network Ports with Built-in LEDs
The front panel of the Model FE116 hub has sixteen vista 100BASE-T ports. Two LEDs—the
Link/Rx LED and the Part (partition) LED—are built into each 100BASE-T port.
Normal/Uplink Push Button
The Normal/Uplink push button on the Model FE116 hub allows you to select Normal (MDI-X)
or Uplink (MDI) wiring for port 16, eliminating the need to use a crossover cable. Ports 1 to 15 on
the hub are permanently configured for Normal wiring.
Label Color Activity Description
Pwr (power) Green On Power is supplied to the hub.
Col (collision) Amber Blinking Data collision is occurring on the network. Note
that occasional collisions are normal.
Link/Rx (Located on the
top left corner of each
vista network port)
Green On
Blinking
The link between this port and the connected
device is good.
There is incoming data on the port.
Part (partition) (Located
on the top right corner of
each vista network port)
Amber On The port is partitioned because of excessive
collisions.

Before you begin installing the hub, prepare the installation site. Make sure your operating
environment meets the operating environment requirements of the equipment.
Place the Model FE116 hub on a flat surface or mount it on a wall with the hardware included in
the wall mount kit. Be sure the hub is positioned with at least 2 inches of space on all sides for
ventilation.
Characteristic Requirement
Temperature Ambient temperature between 0
°
and 40
°
C (32
°
and 104
°
F). No
nearby heat sources such as direct sunlight, warm air exhausts, or
heaters.
Operating humidity 90% maximum relative humidity, noncondensing.
Ventilation Minimum 2 inches (5.08 cm) on all sides for cooling. Adequate airflow
in room or wiring closet.
Operating conditions At least 6 feet (1.83 m) to nearest source of electromagnetic noise
(such as photocopy machine or arc welder).
Service access Minimum 12 inches (19.68 cm) front and back for service access and
maintenance.Front and back clearance for cables and wiring hardware
such as punchdown blocks.
Power Adequate power source within 6 feet (1.83 m).
Wiring hardware Wiring hardware, such as punchdown blocks or patch panels, should
be complete before installing the hub.

Model FE116 Fast Ethernet Hub Installation Giude
You can connect any device equipped with a 100BASE-T Ethernet interface to the RJ-45 ports on
the Model FE116 hub. These standard RJ-45 ports accept either 2-pair or 4-pair Category 5 UTP
cable (100BASE-TX networks require only 2-pair wiring). The RJ-45 interface is an 8-pin
connector.
To connect any of the RJ-45 ports on your Model FE116 hub to a PC, use a regular straight-
through UTP cable. If you are connecting using Port 16 on your hub, set the Normal/Uplink push
button to Normal.
Note: Ethernet specifications limit the cable length between your PC or server and the
hub to 328 feet (100 meters) in length.

Cascading refers to connecting hubs together to increase the number of ports or the number of
users supported on the network. The 100BASE-T ports can be used to cascade hubs together.
Connect to a Network Using the 100BASE-T Ports
The twisted pair cable extended from a 100BASE-T port is called a twisted pair segment and can
be up to 100 meters (m) in length. The 100BASE-T ports, with the exception of port 16, are MDI-
X (or Normal) ports. If you are connecting to ports 1 through 15, use either a straight-through or
crossover cable as outlined in the following table.
Set the Normal/Uplink Push Button
If you are connecting to port 16, use this table to determine the type of cable to use and how to set
the Normal/Uplink push button for port 16.

Model FE116 Fast Ethernet Hub Installation Giude
To complete the installation, connect the power adapter first to the power jack on the hub rear
panel and then to the power outlet on the wall. When power has been applied to the hub:
• The green Pwr (power) LED on the front panel is on.
• The green Link/Rx LED on each connected port is on.
• The green Link/Rx LED on each connected port is blinking when data is being received by
that port.
If there are any problems, refer to “Troubleshooting Information.”
