1. Slide and hold the DIN clip toward the bottom of the
switch. Angle the top portion of the DIN mount over the
top of DIN Rail.

2. Move the switch so that it is parallel with the DIN Rail.

3. Let go of the DIN Clip. The spring should return it to its
original position.

Attach Power Leads

External Supply Required

Power input: 10 to 48 VDC, 5.8W maximum, Class 2

Surrounding Air Ambient Temperature: 0 to 55° C

1. Loosen the screw to open the terminal block lead clamp.

2. Insert the power lead. TB will accept 16-28 AWG wire.

3. Tighten the screw to close the terminal block lead clamp.
Ensure the clamp holds the lead securely. However, do not
over tighten.

Fiber Optic Cable Information

Installation Complete

1. When the network cables are attached and power
is applied, installation is complete.

2. The switch will automatically discover network
devices, populate its MAC address table, and
pass traffic to the appropriate ports.

Mechanical Diagram

1. Ensure your fiber optic cable is terminated with
the correct connector type. EIR208 switches use
SC or ST connectors.

2. Fiber optic type for each port is located on the
product’s side label. When connecting the cable

to the switch, be sure to line up the slider guide
on the cable and switch connectors.

3. Connect the fiber optic transmitter to the
downstream device’s receiver and vice-versa.
