Product Features
1. DHR-800P/DHR-800 is a 8-port modularized 19" Rack mount
10/100Mbps Dual Speed Ethernet Stackable Hub, complies with the
IEEE802.3 10Base-T and IEEE802.3u 100Base-TX Class II
standard.
2. DHR-800P and DHR-800 are the same product series and can stack
with each other.
•DHR-800P is the 8-port Dual-Speed Ethernet Hub with internal
switching module –called “Primary Hub”
•DHR-800 is the 8-port Dual-Speed Ethernet Hub without
switching module –called “Secondary Hub”
3. At rear panel, provide two stacking ports for stacking up to 3 units
max. This type of connection has no sacrifice ports.
4. DHR-800P provides switching function to bridge between the
10Base-T segment and 100Base-TX segment.
5. DHR-800 provide two speed auto-negotiation, but 10Base-T and
100Base-TX segments can not communicate with each other, except
by stacking with DHR-800P primary model.
6. At the front panel, one additional RJ-45 Uplink port can be
cascaded to a hub by using straight-through cable.
7. Two Expansion Slots for multiple purpose networking, network
expansion and extension
8. LED indicators array for simple diagnostics and management
About Fast Ethernet
This hub is technically known as a 100Base-TX Class II Fast
Ethernet hub. This Section describes what this means in practical
terms.

Ethernet Standards and Operation Speeds
DHR-800/DHR-800P User's 3
The standards of the Ethernet are defined by the Institute of
Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). The standard for
traditional Ethernet using hubs and twisted-pair cables is known as
10Base-T. Traditional Ethernet works at a signaling speed of
10Mbps, that is, ten megabits (slightly more than a character) per
second. The Base in 10Base-T stands for “baseband,”a one-bit-at-
a-time signaling method; the T stands for twisted-pair cables.
Fast Ethernet was developed to meet the demand for increased
“bandwidth,”in other word, greater data-carrying capacity. A fast
Ethernet hub works at 100Mbps, ten times the speed of a 10Base-T
hub.
The IEEE had defined several Fast Ethernet Standards. The hub complies
with the 100Base-TX standard: 100Mbps baseband signaling on twisted-
pair cables, with signals crossing from the Transmit lines to the Receive
lines somewhere between each pair of communication end nodes.
•
Fast Ethernet Hub Classes
This hub is a Class II Fast Ethernet hub. This means two things:
1.It will work with Fast Ethernet interface cards of one type only, and
2.It can be connected to another hub for the purpose of expanding the
network.
Note: A Class I hub will work with more than one type of Fast Ethernet
interface card, but cannot be connected to another hub.
•
100Base-TX Fast Ethernet Cabling
The twisted-pair cables used for traditional Ethernet and Fast Ethernet all
look the same on the outside. Such cables, however, come in different
grades and with different wire arrangement, and can have different kinds
of sheathing.
NOVA100 Series
4
The kinds of cables that can be used with a 100Base-TX Class II Fast
Ethernet hub are
♦Category 5 unshielded twisted-pair cable, and ( Category 5 UTP)
♦Type 1 shielded twisted-pair cable (Type 1 STP )
•
100Base-TX Fast Ethernet Summary
Be sure to remember the following rules about a 100Base-TX Class II Fast
Ethernet hub:
1. All end nodes connected to the hub must have 100Base-TX Fast
Ethernet interface cards.
2. Only Category 5 UTP or Type 1 STP cables may be used to connect and
nodes to the hub. The cables must be straight-wired.
3. To expand a network built around one Fast Ethernet hub, you can
connect the hub to one and only one other 100Base-TX Class II hub.

2. Installation
Hardware Description
This product series provide two different running speed –10Mbps and
100Mbps in the same hub and automatically distinguish the speed of
incoming connection and group the same speed ports in a network segment,
i.e., each port has auto-negotiation Nway function.
Both DHR-800P and DHR-800 products have dual-speed Nway function,
but only DHR-800P with switching function to bridge 10Mbps and
100Mbps segments.
The DHR-800 series product can stack up each other, but in a stack only
ONE DHR-800P primary hub is allowed. It means that in a stack you can
have several DHR-800 hubs then all ports with dual-speed auto sensing
function, but 10Base and 100Base segments can not link together. Now by
adding one DHR-800P hub to this stack, 10 and 100 segments can
communicate through inside switch module.
This section describes the important parts of the 10/100BASE-TX Dual-
Speed Ethernet hub. It presents front panel and rear panel drawings of the
product showing the LED indicators, connectors, and switches.

Front panel
The following figure shows the front panel of 8-port 10/100BASE-TX
Dual-Speed Ethernet hub.
Fig 2.1 DHR-800P front panel
Note: The difference between DHR-800 and DHR-800P is on the plastic
NOVA100 Series

label on front panel. The model number and character “Primary”is
for DHR-800P.
There are 8 RJ-45 jacks on the front panel. Each jack is labeled with a port
number.
All ports‘Transmit and Receive lines are crossed within the hub (ie. 1-8
ports are MDI-X ports). A 10/100BASE-TX port must be internally cross-
wired to let you connect an end node using straight-wired cabling.
A special RJ-45 connector is converted from the 1st port as “Uplink”port
(MDI-II port). The “Uplink”port is used for connecting another hub
through an ordinary straight-wired twisted-pair cable by running one end
of straight cable to “Uplink”port and the other end to another hub‘s
normal port.
One expansion slots for optional module installation.
•
LED Indication
On the front panel, there are several LED indicators for monitoring the
device itself, and the network status. At a quick glance of the front panel,
the user would be able to tell if the product is receiving power; if it is
monitoring another hub or concentrator; or if a problem exists on the
network.
The following table describes the function of each LED indicator
