Installation
This section describes the functionalities of the Industrial Fast
Ethernet components and guides how to install it on the
desktop. Basic knowledge of networking is assumed. Please
read this chapter completely before installation.
In the following section, the term “Industrial Fast Ethernet
Switch” means the MC251-4P/1S and the NS2051-4P/1T
Product Description
The IFS MC251-4P/1S and the NS2051-4P/1T are 5-Port
10/100Mbps with 4-Port PoE unmanaged Industrial Fast
Ethernet Switches and provide non-blocking wire-speed
performance in an IP-30 aluminum metal enclosure for easy
deployment in harsh Industrial demanding environments.
The PoE in-line power follow the standard IEEE 802.3af and
allows to power 4 PoE compliant devices at distance of up to
100 meters through the 4-pair Cat 5 / 5e UTP wire. With Data
and Power over Ethernet from one unit, the MC251-4P/1S
and the NS2051-4P/1T reduces cable deployment and
eliminates the need for dedicated electrical outlets on the wall,
ceiling or any hard to reach locations.
With 1Gbps internal switching fabric, the Industrial Fast
Ethernet Switch can handle large amounts of data in a secure
topology linking to a backbone or high capacity servers.
The Industrial Fast Ethernet Switch has a 2K MAC address
table and offers wire-speed packets transfer performance
without risk of packet loss. The stable throughput of the device
makes it ideal for most Ethernet environments.
All RJ-45 copper interfaces support 10/100Mbps Autonegotiation for optimal speed detection through RJ-45
Category 3, 4, 5, 5e or 6 cables. Support standard for AutoMDI/MDI-X that can detect the type of connection to any
4 IFS MC251-4P/1S and NS2051-4P/1T User Manual
Ethernet device without requiring special straight or crossover
cables.
The Flow Control function allows Industrial Fast Ethernet
Switch supported routers and servers to directly connect to
this device for fast, reliable data transfer.

Application
In this section installation details of industrial fast ethernet
swtiches will be described.
Providing up to 4 PoE, in-line power interfaces, the Industrial
Fast Ethernet Switch can easily power a central-controlled IP
phone system, IP camera system, or AP group for the
enterprise.
Installation Steps
Step 1: Unpack the Industrial Fast Ethernet Switch.
Step 2: Check the DIN-Rail that is pre-installed on the
Industrial Fast Ethernet Switch. (Please refer to DIN-Rail
Mounting section for DIN-Rail installation. If you want to wall
IFS MC251-4P/1S and NS2051-4P/1T User Manual 13
mount the Industrial Fast Ethernet Switch, then please refer to
Wall Mount Plate Mounting section for specific instructions.
Step 3: To hang the Industrial Fast Ethernet Switch on the
DIN-Rail track or wall, please refer to the Mounting Installation
section.
Step 4: Power on the Industrial Fast Ethernet Switch. (Please
refer to the Wiring the Power Inputs section for power input)
The power LED on the Industrial Fast Ethernet Switch will
illuminate. Please refer to the LED Indicators section for
meaning of LED lights.
Step 5: Prepare the twisted-pair, straight through Category 5
cable for Ethernet connection.
Step 6: Insert one side of Category 5 cables into the Industrial
Fast Ethernet Switch Ethernet port (RJ-45 port) and the other
side to the network device Ethernet port (RJ-45 port), ex:
Switch, PC or Server. The UTP port (RJ-45) LED on the
Industrial Fast Ethernet Switch will light up when the cable is
connected to the network device. Please refer to the LED
Indicators section for LED light meaning.
Step 7: Insert fiber cable from the MC251-4P/1S to the fiber
network. TX, RX must be paired at both ends. The optical port
LED on the MC251-4P/1S will illuminate when the connection
is established with network device. Please refer to the LED
Indicators section for LED light meaning.
Step 8: When all connections are set up and the LEDs
illuminate, the installation is completed.
Switch Operation
Address Table
The Industrial Fast Ethernet Switch is implemented with an
address table. This address table is composed of many
entries. Each entry is used to store the address information of
14 IFS MC251-4P/1S and NS2051-4P/1T User Manual
each node in the network, including MAC address, Port No.,
etc. This information comes from the learning process of the
Industrial Fast Ethernet Switch.
Learning
When one packet comes from any port of the Industrial Fast
Ethernet switch, the Industrial Fast Ethernet Switch will record
the source address, port no. and other related information in
the address table. This information will be used to decide
either forwarding or filtering for future packets.
Forwarding & Filtering
When one packet comes from another port of the Industrial
Fast Ethernet Switch, it will also check the destination address
besides the source address learning. The Industrial Fast
Ethernet Switch will lookup the address-table for the
destination address. If not found, this packet will be forwarded
to all the other ports except the port which this packet came in.
And these ports will transmit this packet to the network it's
connected to. If found, and the destination address is located
at a different port from this packet comes in, the Industrial Fast
Ethernet Switch will forward this packet to the port where this
destination address is located according to the information
from address table. But, if the destination address is located at
the same port with this packet comes in, then this packet will
be filtered.
Store-and-Forward
Store-and-Forward is one type of packet-forwarding
techniques. A Store-and-Forward Industrial Switch stores the
incoming frames in an internal buffer and checks for any errors
from the frames before transmission. Lack of error packet
occurrence is important for an efficient and stable network..
IFS MC251-4P/1S and NS2051-4P/1T User Manual 15
The Industrial Fast Ethernet Switch scans the destination
address from the packet-header, searches the routing table
provided for the incoming port and forwards the packet, only if
required. The fast forwarding makes the switch attractive for
connecting servers directly to the network, thereby increasing
throughput and availability. However, the switch is most
commonly used to segment existing hubs, which nearly always
improves overall performance. Ethernet Switching can be
easily configured in any Ethernet network environment to
significantly boost bandwidth using conventional cabling and
adapters.
Due to the learning function of the Industrial Fast Ethernet
Switch, the source address and corresponding port number of
each incoming and outgoing packet are stored in a routing
table. This information is subsequently used to filter packets
whose destination address is on the same segment as the
source address. This confines network traffic to its respective
domain, reducing the overall load on the network.
The Industrial Fast Ethernet Switch performs "Store-andForward" therefore, no error packets occur. More reliably, it
reduces the re-transmission rate. No packet loss will occur.
Auto-negotiation
The TP ports on the Industrial Fast Ethernet Switch have built-
in “Auto-negotiation”. This technology automatically sets the
best possible bandwidth when a connection is established with
another network device (usually at Power On or Reset). This is
done by detecting the modes and speeds at the moment both
devices are connected.
16 IFS MC251-4P/1S and NS2051-4P/1T User Manual
Troubleshooting
This chapter contains information to help resolving issues. If
the Industrial Fast Ethernet Switch is not functioning properly,
make sure the device was set up according to instructions in
this manual.
The Link LED is not light
Solution:
Check the cable connection of the Industrial Fast Ethernet
Switch.
Performance is bad
Solution:
Check the speed duplex mode of the partner device. The
Industrial Fast Ethernet Switch is operating at Auto-negotiation
mode by default and if the partner is set to half duplex, then
the performance will become bad.
Link LED is illuminated but the traffic is irregular
Solution:
Check that the attached device is not set to dedicate full
duplex. Some devices use a physical or software switch to
change duplex modes. Auto-negotiation may not recognize
this type of full-duplex setting.
Why does the Industrial Fast Ethernet Switch not connect
to the network?
Solution:
Check every port LED on the Industrial Fast Ethernet Switch.
Try another port on the Industrial Fast Ethernet Switch to
make sure the cable is installed properly while making sure the
cable is the right type
Turn off the power and turn on the power again after waiting
for awhile.
