Cables and Connectors
This appendix lists cables that have been tested and verified for use with the
HP AdvanceStack Hub-8U. It also includes minimum pin-out information so,
if you wish to use an unlisted cable, you can verify that the cables used in
your installation are correctly wired. Note that each pin-out does not
necessarily match the pin-out for the corresponding HP cable, but cables
manufactured to follow the minimum pin-out will function correctly.
Incorrectly wired cabling is the most common cause of problems for LAN
communications. HP recommends that you work with a qualified LAN cable
installer for assistance with your cabling requirements.
