B&B Electronics Elinx family of Industrial rack mount Ethernet switches
have been designed to meet light heavy Industrial communication
requirements.
The ESW626 Unmanaged family offers a variety of Industrial models. The
switch configurations range from 26 ports RJ45 copper to RJ45 copper with
multi mode, single mode, and or SFP gigabit ports.
They will support IEEE 802.3 (10Base-T), IEEE 802.3u (100BaseTX) and
(100BaseFX), 802.3ab 1000Base(X), IEEE 802.3z for
1000BaseSX/LX/LHX/ZX, 802.3x for flow control, full and half duplex,
MDI/MDIX auto-sensing.
The ESW626 series accepts 18VDC to 36VDC input voltage using terminal
blocks. The operating temperature range for standard models are -10˚C to 60˚C with wide temperature models supporting -40˚C to 75˚C. The ambient
relative humidity rating is 5 to 95% (Non-condensing).

The RJ45 copper ports support auto-MDI/MDIX operation. This feature
allows network connections to computers, servers, or other switches using
straight-through or crossover cables (See Figure below). Straight-through
cable connections: pins 1, 2, 3 and 6, at one end of the cable, are connected
straight-through to pins 1, 2, 3 and 6 at the other end of the cable. The table
below shows the 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX MDI and MDI-X port pin outs.
Gigabit Copper/SFP (mini-GBIC) COMBO ports
The ESW626 can be ordered with up to two auto-detect Gigabit
copper/SFP combo ports. The Gigabit Copper (10/100/1000Mbps) ports
use Category 5e or above UTP/STP cable for connection. The SFP slots can
be used to connect the network segment with single or multi-mode fiber.
For installation, the module needs to be adjusted so as to be aligned
correctly and then moved into the SFP slot until a click is heard. With the
SFP module (fiber optic connection), the switch will be able to transmit
speeds up to 1000 Mbps. Fiber optic communications will prevent harsh
environment interfaces from being introduced into the network and will
extend transmission distance.
The SFP module is terminated with LC connectors. For installation, the
module needs to be adjusted so as to be aligned correctly and then moved
into the SFP slot until a click is heard.
To remove SFP modules lower removal bar and firmly pull transceiver out.
Cabling
Use unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) or shielded twisted-pair (STP) cable.
10Mbps: Category 3, 4, 5 or great cable
100Mbps: Category 5 or great cable
1000Mbps: Category 5e or great cable
Maximum cable length: 100 meters (328ft.)
100Base FX SC Fiber
The use of fiber optics has become prevalent in Industrial Ethernet network
communication systems. Extending distance, high data rate capabilities,
noise rejection and electrical isolation are just a few of the important
characteristics that make fiber optic technology ideal for use in industrial
applications.
Each fiber port has a TX (transmit) and RX (receive) connection fixed at
100Mbps speed. The fiber ports will support multi mode or single mode
fiber dependent on the model number ordered.
