INSTALLATION WARNINGS - These products should not be used to replace proper safety
interlocking. No software-based device (or any other solid-state device) should ever be designed to
be responsible for the maintenance of consequential equipment or personnel safety. In particular,
Red Lion disclaims any responsibility for damages, either direct or consequential, that result from the
use of this equipment in any application. All power, input and output (I/O) wiring must be in
accordance with Class I, Division 2 wiring methods and in accordance with the authority having
jurisdiction. Refer to section 1 for other important installation warnings.
FCC Statement - This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital
device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate
radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not
occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television
reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to
correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: Reorient or relocate the receiving
antenna; Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver; Connect the equipment into an
outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected; Consult the dealer or an
experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Section 1
General Specifications
Overview
This manual will help you install and maintain the switch which is offered as unmanaged
(model ET-8EG-MIL-1) or managed (model ET-8MG-MIL-1). The unmanaged model
requires no configuration and is completely “plug and play”. The managed model allows
you to configure the switch to optimize and increase network performance.
Note: This manual only covers the installation and wiring of these switches. For
the managed model, refer to the separate Software User Manual for details on
configuring and using any of the management functions such as SNMP, RSTP,
IGMP, port mirroring, etc.
Basic
Operation
Unlike an Ethernet hub that broadcasts all messages out all ports, these industrial Ethernet
switches will intelligently route Ethernet messages only out the appropriate port. The major
benefits of this are increased bandwidth and speed, reduction or elimination of message
collisions, and deterministic performance when tied with real-time systems.
The switch supports 10BaseT (10 Mbps), 100BaseT (100 Mbps) and 1000BaseT (1000
Mbps) on 8 ports. Each of these ports independently and automatically senses the speed
and duplex for best performance. They also offer auto-crossover and auto-polarity to
assure a proper link with either straight or crossed wired cables or even when the cable is
incorrectly wired.
