Q1: |
Does an administrator have to configure the new ConnectUPS-X and ConnectUPS-BD cards for the particular network speed; e.g. 100Mb or 10Mb? |

No, the cards will automatically sense what the network speed is and react accordingly. |
|
|
Q2: |
What do the LEDs labeled 10 or 100 mean on the faceplate of the ConnectUPS-X and ConnectUPS-BD cards? |
A: |
They are either on, off or flashing to indicate status or transmission of data. Details regarding this may be found in the user manual. |
|
|
Q3: |
What does the port labeled “COM” do? |
A: |
This is used for local configuration of the ConnectUPS. |
|
|
Q4: |
What do the LEDs labeled “Power” and “Status” do? |

|
Q7: |
What is the hub on the ConnectUPS-X? |
A: |
The hub consists of the four ports on the left half (as you face it) of the faceplate. |
|
|
Q8: |
Why is the “hub” feature included on the
ConnectUPS-X only? |
A: |
Faceplate size prevents the ConnectUPS-BD from having this feature. |
|
|

Why is one of the four ports on the
ConnectUPS-X labeled “Uplink”? |
A: |
This is the port that provides the connection to the network. The other connections are for use with other devices that need connection to the network. |
