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 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.

The Red Lion MIL318-xxxx-yy is an 18 port industrial Ethernet managed switch designed
to meet the extreme requirements found in the toughest applications. It combines the high
performance and security of an enterprise-class switch with rugged packaging and
protected circuitry to meet the needs of the most demanding applications.
This manual will help you install and maintain these industrial Ethernet switches.
Installation of these switches is very easy and they will begin to operate as soon as they
are powered up. Though these are fully managed switches, they will act as unmanaged
until they are configured otherwise. Refer to the separate software manual or management
guide for configuration of the advanced networking functionality and security.
Note: This manual only covers the installation and wiring of these switches. 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.
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.
These switches support 10BaseT (10 Mbps), 100BaseT (100 Mbps) and 1000BaseT (1000
Mbps) on 12 ports. Each of these ports independently and automatically senses the speed
and duplex for best performance. There are an additional 4 Ethernet ports with fixed
10BaseT speeds and 2 fiber ports (single mode or multimode) with fixed 10GBaseT (10000
Mbps) speeds. All Gigabit ports 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.
The switch has the following performance specifications. Note: All specifications are
subject to change. Consult factory for latest information.
