Product Overview
The RocketLinx ES7110 and ES7110-VBare IEEE 802.3af compliant PoE
switches designed for connecting a wide range of industrial PoE equipment such
as IP surveillance cameras, wireless access points, VoIP phone sets, point-of-sale
systems, and other devices where a power source is not conveniently located.
The RocketLinx ES7110 and ES7110-VB are equipped with eight 10/100BASETX PoE injector switch ports, with each port delivering power up to 15.4W, and
two 10/100/1000BASE-TX (Gigabit) Ethernet uplink ports for transferring data to
the network. The ES7110 and ES7110-VB support QoS, which ensures highquality video traffic transmission by adjusting the data transfer priority.
The RocketLinx ES7110 and RocketLinx ES7110-VB are referred to as ES7110
in the remainder of this Guide unless there is model-specific information.
The ES7110 features convenient wiring with a standard 4-pin industrial terminal
block for power input and a fault relay alarm contact output. Additionally, each
Ethernet port has a Port Link Alarm, which can be configured to automatically
trigger on connection issues, warning administrators of abnormal operating
conditions and ensuring quick resolution to network issues.
In addition to advanced PoE and networking capabilities, the ES7110 is designed
for industrial applications and deployment in harsh conditions with an IP30 rigid
aluminum housing and extended operating temperature range (-25° to 70°C) that
ensure consistent operation in places such as mass transit vehicles, factories, and
outdoor settings.
Refer to the Comtrol web site for detailed ES7110
or ES7110-VB specifications.

Power
Connecting the Power
Use the following procedure to wire the power for the ES7110.
Note: Power should be disconnected from the power supply before connecting it to the switch. Otherwise, your screwdriver
blade can inadvertently short your terminal connections to the grounded enclosure.
1. Disconnect the terminal block from the ES7110.
2. Insert the positive and negative wires (12-24AWG) into the PWR+ and PWR- contacts.
Make that you use the correct power supply, which requires a minimum of 96W:
• ES7110
• ES7110-VB
3. Tighten the wire-clamp screws to prevent the wires from coming loose.

Wiring the Relay Output and Ground
The ES7110 provides re l a y ou tput. The relay contacts are energized (open) for normal operation and will clos e under a faul ty
condition, such as, an Ethernet port link break. The relay alarm can be configured by the DIP switches.
1. Insert positive and negative wires into Relay A and Relay B.
2. Tighten the wire-clamp screws to prevent the wires from coming loose.
3. Connect a ground wire between the chassis and earth ground using 12 to 24AWG wire to ensure that the RocketLinx
ES7110 is not damaged by noise or electrical shock.
a. Loosen the earth gro und screw on the bottom of the RocketLinx ES7110 with a screw driver.
b. Tighten the screw after the earth ground wire is connected.

Hardware Installation
Mounting the RocketLinx ES7110
The RocketLinx ES7110 can be mounted on a DIN rail or on a w a ll panel . The DIN rail clip is already attached to the
RocketLinx ES7110 when packaged.
Note: The RocketLinx ES7110 will disperse heat through the metal case during PoE port operation. The RocketLinx ES7110
should be installed and mounted onto a panel which provides good heat dispersion.
You can use this procedure to mount the ES7110 on a DIN rail.
1. Insert the upper end of DIN rail clip into the back of DIN rail track from its
upper side.
2. Lightly push the bottom of DIN rail clip into the track.
3. Ensure the DIN rail clip is tightly attached on the track.
4. To remove the RocketLinx ES7110 from the track, reverse the steps above.
You can use this procedure to mount the ES7110 on the wall:
1. Snap the DIN rail plate into the track.
2. Attach the ES7110 to the wall using the mounting screws.
Connecting the Ethernet Ports
You can use the following information to connect standard Ethernet cables between the ES7110 Ethernet ports and the network
nodes.
• Ports G1 and G2 are Gigabit Ethernet uplink ports that support 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, and 1000BASE-TX.
• Ports 1-8 are Fast Ethernet 10/100BASE-TX PoE ports that are IEEE 802.3af (PoE) compliant (15.4W maximum). The
Fast Ethernet ports support full- or half-duplex modes, with automatic MDI/MDIX crossover, and PoE Injector.
The following table shows the RJ45 pin-out assignments for the PoE and Gigabit ports.

Crossover Cabling

All the Fast Ethernet ports automatically detect the signal from the connected devices to negotiate the link speed and duplex
mode. Auto MDI/MDIX allows you to connect another switch, hub, or workstation without changing straight-through or
crossover cables. Crossover cables cross-connect the transmit lines at each end to the received lines at the opposite end.
The Ethernet cables use Pins 1, 2, 3, and 6 of an 8-pin RJ45 connector. The signals of these pins are converted by the automatic
MDIX function, as shown in the following table.
Connect one side of an Ethernet cable into any switch port and connect the other side to your attached device. The Link/
Activity LED is lit when the cable is correctly connected. See Setting the DIP Switch
the ES7110 LEDs. Always make sure that the cables between the switches and attached devices (for example, switch, hub, or
workstation) are less than 100 meters (328 feet).
The wiring cable types and maximum cable length are as follows.
• Uplink ports: 10BASE-T: 2-pair UTP/STP Category 3, 4, 5 cable, EIA/TIA-568 100-ohm (100 meters)
• Uplink ports: 100BASE-TX: 2-pair UTP/STP Category 5 cable, EIA/TIA-568 100-ohm (100 meters)
• Uplink ports: 1000BASE-TX: 4-pair UTP/STP Category 5 cable, EIA/TIA-568 100-ohm (100 meters)
• PoE ports: 4-pair UTP/STP Category 5e / 6 cable, EIA/TIA-568 100-ohm (100 meters)

Troubleshooting and Technical Support
Troubleshooting
If you are having problems, you may want to check the following:
• Make sure you are using the correct DC power supply.
- ES7110
- ES7110-VB
• Select Ethernet cables with specifications suitable for your applications to set up your systems.
- Ethernet cables are categorized into unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) and shielded twisted-pair (STP) cables.
- Category 3, 4, 5, and 6 Ethernet cables are suitable for systems with 10 Mbps transmission speed.
- For systems with 100 Mbps transmission speed, Category 5 and 6 Ethernet cables are the only suitable specifications
for this environment.
- You also need to make sure that the distance between any two nodes does not exceed 100 meters (328 feet).
-Use Alternative B
•If the Power LED goes off when the power cord is plugged in, a power failure might have occurred. Check the power
output connection to see if there is any error at the power source. If you still cannot solve the problem, contact Comtrol
Technical Support for assistance.
: Use power supplies with 48VDC output.
: Use power supplies with 12-24VDC output.
