Input and Output BNC Connectors
8 input BNC connectors and 8 output BNC connectors are used to connect devices in the
SDTI network.
Note
The IN and OUT connectors are located opposite compared to the XHub[2]
hardware. On a XHub3, the input connectors are located on the top row.
2.4. Interconnecting XHubs
Purpose
When more than 8 XNet branches are required, it is possible to connect several XHubs to
a Master XHub to obtain the required number of branches. In this case please make sure
that the rules specified below are followed.
Rules
• One and only one XHub must be configured as Master XHub. All other hubs must be
configured as Slave XHubs.
• The 1st branch of a Slave XHub must be used as the uplink branch to the Master
XHub.
• All Slave XHubs must connect directly back to the Master XHub; a Slave XHub
cannot be connected to another Slave XHub. Maximum configuration is therefore 1
Master XHub connected to up to 8 Slave XHubs.
• A Master XHub does not need to have any servers connected to it, and can consist
completely of 8 Slave Hubs.
