In my quest to find a small ethernet hub (for the two AFS units to
talk to each other) yesterday I discovered that the common Linksys
and Netgear models are 7.5V. Should I be able to find a 12V hub?
If not, how do I step the voltage down?

GRT recently shipped me a unit to connect my 3 GRT units. It was a bit
pricey at $165. I questioned whether I should be able to just go out
and find a hub for a better price. They commented that this is an
'industrial' or 'commercial' grade product and that I might have a hard
time finding something equivalent.
It's a EIBA5100T/R (DIN- rail mount) from Comtemporary Controls. The
installation guides says "....hubs are designed for the Building
Automation Environment". It has 5 ports, it s 3.5x3.31 by 1". It can
be powered by AC 8-24V or DC 10-36V - no setup reuqired
www.ccontrols.com
Looks good to this builder.

Hi Jeff,
If you only have two ethernet devices, you should be able to use an
ethernet cross-over cable and have no need for a ethernet hub/switch.
If you have 3 or more ethernet devices, you'll need a hub or switch.
Here is a link to a typical cross-over cable:
<http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16812107216>
Here are lots more to choose from:
<http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&N 52810132%201230513960&bop=And&Order=RATING>
Here are lots of ethernet switches - One of them will likely run off
12v directly:
<http://www.newegg.com/Store/SubCategory.aspx?SubCategory=30&name=Switches>
Does AFS have any recommendations? If you can use a direct cross-over
cable, that would be best I think.

A search through the AFS support forum turn up the recommendation of a
Linksys SD205 5 port switch.
It is 12 volts and costs about $35.
Here is the spec sheet.

We have them on our website for $145 in the accessories section...same unit.
They indeed are great little boxes that are very nicely built. Industrial
panel mount with metal enclosures. It's what we've been installing for all
the AFS or GRT panels we've been using.
Cheers,
Stein

You could use a crossover cable (No hub required or the AFS units might automatically do the crossover function. I would contact them before hunting for a hub.

I have a 3500 and a 3400. They just hooked together with a cable. No
need for a hub. I'd call AFS before I bought a hub.

If your just linking 2 ea afs units then you can just use a Ethernet Cross
over cable and will not need a hub. If you want to connect more then 2
devices then you will need a Ethernet switch/hib.
If you want more info on a cross over cable shhot me a e-mail off list and I
will assist you.
