1.8 Switching HUB HUB-100 (option)
Use the optional Switching HUB HUB-100 to connect sensor networks. This network
cannot be connected with the LAN network on board. Note that a commercial PC can-
not be connected in this network, other than for the maintenance. The total length of
all cables connected to the hub is 6 m.
For the mounting procedures, see the operator’s manual for HUB-100 (Pub. No.OMC-
35191).
Mounting considerations
When you select a mounting location, keep in mind the following points:
Locate the adapter away from heat sources because of heat that can build up inside
the cabinet.
The vibration should be minimal.
Locate the equipment away from places subject to water splash and rain.
Make sure that the ground wire is connected between the earth terminal on chassis
and the ship’s earth.
Leave sufficient space at the sides and rear of the unit to facilitate maintenance.
A magnetic compass will be affected if the adapter is placed too close to the mag-
netic compass. Observe the compass safe distances at the front of this manual to
prevent compass malfunctions.
