When used in Buspowered mode without the AC/DC adapter, the hub will supply each device attached to it a maximum of +5V, 500mA DC power. This should be sufficient for most low-powered devices. In self-powered mode using the AC/DC adapter, the FireWire 4-Port Hub provides a maximum of DC +5V ­ 1. 25A to each port, allowing connections with other hubs and extensions of the cable length by repeating or amplifying the signal to other devices on the FireWire or IEEE 1394 Bus. 4 P73370-F5U524-AM-man. qxd 9/20/00 10:52 AM Page 5 Hardware Installation 1. Attach the AC adapter to a 100-240V outlet and plug the adapter cord into the back of the hub. The AC adapter is optional and, in most situations, recommended for use ONLY while you are installing the FireWire Hub. Once you determine that the devices are working properly, unplug the AC adapter. As long as the devices continue to operate properly, you will not need the AC adapter. If they cease to function, however, you will need the AC adapter. Connect a FireWire 6-pin connector if the device has a 6-pin connection, or 5. Connect a FireWire 4-pin connector if the device has a 4-pin connection and does not require Bus power. Connect the Hub with a 6-pin connector, and then connect the Hub to the computer PCI Host Adapter with a 6-pin connection. Note: A host adapter is required to operate the Belkin 4-Port Hub. IEEE 1394 drivers are loaded by the operating system when a PCI Host Adapter is installed or resident on the computer.
