General Information

Overview

This manual will help you install and maintain these Etherbus industrial Power over Ethernet
(PoE) devices. These devices support standard IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet (PoE) and
will work with any device that also supports this standard. Installation of the Etherbus devices
is very easy and they will begin to operate as soon as they are powered up. For all models
there are no user settings so they are truly plug and play.

Power LED

On all models (except the splitter) there is one power LED that is ON if either power input (P1
or P2) has valid power applied to it. If the power LED is OFF then no power is being applied
to the unit.

On the splitter the power LED will be ON when PoE power is detected on the incoming
Ethernet line. It will be OFF if no PoE power is detected.

ACT / LNK
LED

This is the Yellow LED in the RJ45 ports of the Etherbus switch model EB-5ES-PSE-#. It
indicates the Link and Activity status of the port.

ON (yellow)

(not flashing)

Indicates that there is a proper Ethernet connection (Link) between the
port and another Ethernet device, but no communications activity is
detected.

ON (yellow)

(flashing)

Indicates that there is a proper Ethernet connection (Link) between the
port and another Ethernet device, and that there is communications
activity.

OFF

Indicates that there is not a proper Ethernet connection (Link) between
the port and another Ethernet device. Make sure the cable has been
plugged securely into the ports at both ends.

Speed 10/100
LED

This is the Green LED in the RJ45 connector of Port 5 on the Etherbus switch model EB­5ES-PSE-1. It indicates the Speed of the uplink port.

ON (green)

A 100 Mbps (100BaseT) connection is detected.

OFF

A 10 Mbps (10BaseT) connection is detected.

Fiber Optic
Port LED

This is the Green LED above the fiber port on the Etherbus switch model EB-5ES-PSE-2 or -

3. It indicates the Link status of the fiber optic port.

ON (green)

A 100 Mbps (100BaseF) connection is detected.

OFF

No fiber connection is detected.

PoE LED

This is the Green LED that is either integrated into the RJ45 port (on switch models) or is
below the PoE ports (on injector models). It indicates the PoE status of the port.

ON (green)

A valid Powered Device (PD) is detected and the switch or injector is
sourcing power on this port.

OFF

No valid Powered Device (PD) is detected so no power is being sourced.

Periodically
Blinks ON

No valid Powered Device (PD) is detected or the connected device is
drawing too little current (<10 mA) so no power is being sourced.
However, the switch or injector is periodically looking for a valid device.
This condition may occur when you have connected a PoE splitter but it
has not been connected to a load yet. Once the connected device (such
as a splitter) is loaded and draws more than 10 or 15 mA then power
will be sourced.

Error Code
Blink

Some models may blink an error code. If you see the same sequence of
blinks repeatedly then contact RED LION for more information.

Section 3

Installation

Overview

These industrial Ethernet PoE devices can be snapped onto a standard DIN rail (EN50022) or
screwed directly to a flat panel. Refer to the mechanical drawings below to properly mount your
switch.

Note: Make sure to allow enough room to route your Ethernet copper or fiber optic cables.

DIN Rail
Mounting

Recommended DIN rail mounting steps:

1. Hook top back of unit over the din rail.

2. Push bottom back onto the din rail until it snaps into place.

Recommended DIN rail removal steps:

A. Insert screwdriver into din clip and pry until it releases from the din rail.
B. Unhook top of unit from din rail.
