CAUTION: This equipment is designed to permit the
connection of the earthed conductor of the DC supply circuit
to the earthing conductor at the equipment.
If this connection is made, all of the following conditions must
be met:
This equipment shall be connected to directly to the DC
supply system earthing electrode conductor or to a
bonding jumper from an earthing terminal bar or bus to
which the DC supply system earthing electrode
conductor is connected.
This equipment shall be located in the same immediate
area (such as, adjacent cabinets) as any other
equipment that has a connection between the earthed
conductor of the same DC supply circuit and the
earthing conductor, and also the point of earthing of the

switch addresses a need for a smaller switch. This switch
provides an affordable solution for rugged and outdoor
environment, transportation road-side cabinet, industrial floor
shop, multitenant dwellings or Fiber To The Home (FTTH)
applications. Capable of operating at temperature extremes of
-10°C to +60°C, this is the switch of choice for harsh
environments constrained by space.
Plug-and-Play Solution:
The switch is a plug-and-play Fast Ethernet Switch in
compact size. It doesn't have any complicated software to set
up.
This manual describes how to install and use the Industrial
Ethernet Switch. This switch integrates full wire speed
switching technology. This switch brings the answer to
complicated hardened networking environments.
To get the most out of this manual, you should have an
understanding of Ethernet networking concepts.

Installation
This chapter gives step-by-step instructions about how to
install the switch:
Selecting a Site for the Switch
As with any electric device, you should place the switch
where it will not be subjected to extreme temperatures,
humidity, or electromagnetic interference. Specifically, the site
you select should meet the following requirements:
The ambient temperature should be between -10 to 60
degrees Celsius.
The relative humidity should be less than 95 percent,
non-condensing.
Surrounding electrical devices should not exceed the
electromagnetic field (RFC) standards.
Make sure that the switch receives adequate ventilation.
Do not block the ventilation holes on each side of the
switch.
The power outlet should be within 1.8 meters of the switch.

EX42000 www.etherwan.com
DIN Rail Mounting
Installation: Place the switch on the DIN rail from above using
the slot. Push the front of the switch toward the mounting
surface until it audibly snaps into place.
Removal: Pull out the lower edge and then remove the switch
from the DIN rail.
