To ground the device:
1.Connect one end of the grounding wire (not included) to the grounding
screw by looping one end of the grounding wire under the star washer.
2.Tighten the grounding screw with a phillips-head screwdriver.
3.Connect the other end of the grounding wire to earth ground.
The AutoCross feature allows either straight-through (MDI) or crossover (MDIX) copper cable to be used when connecting devices via the RJ-45 port.
1.Locate or build 10Base-T or 100Base-TX copper cables with male, RJ-45

Installation -- Continued
Set the Port Alarm Switches
The port alarm feature is used to determine faults at the copper or fiber ports.
The dip switches are located on the top panel of the device. Use a small flat
blade screwdriver or a similar device to set the switches.
on = Enables the corresponding port alarm. If the link for that port fails (or if
a power supply input fails), the internal relay forms an open circuit and
the FAULT LED lights up.
off = Disables the corresponding port alarm. The internal relay forms a
closed circuit and the FAULT LED remains off.
NOTE: To activate the updated switch setting, cycle the power to the
Ethernet switch by turning off the power, then turning it back on.
Internal Relay
The internal relay that activates the alarm feature is connected to the two
middle contacts on the 6-contact terminal block. A user-supplied fault alarm
device can be connected to these fault contacts. An example would be to
connect the fault circuit to a warning light located in the control room. The
light can be set up to turn on when a fault is detected. (See page 7.)

The contacts for the fault alarm are on the 6-contact terminal block, located

1.Insert the two wires from the user-supplied port alarm device into the two
terminals marked “FAULT” on the 6-contact terminal block.
2.Secure the wire by tightening the corresponding screw on the side of the
terminal block.
NOTE: Calculate the maximum possible current in each power wire and
signal wire. Observe all electrical codes for maximum current allowed.
If the current goes above the maximum ratings, the wiring would
overheat, causing serious damage to the network equipment.
Please note the following when wiring the network:
•Signal lines must not be directly connected to outdoor wiring.
•Use separate paths to route the power wiring and the signal wiring. If
power wiring and signal wiring paths must cross, make sure the wires are
perpendicular at the intersection point.
•Do not run signal wiring and power wiring in the same wire conduit. To
avoid interference, wires with different signal characteristics should also
be routed separately.
•Use the type of signal transmitted through a wire to determine which
wires should be kept separate. The rule of thumb is that wiring with
similar electrical characteristics can be bundled together.
•Keep input wiring and output wiring separate.
•Where necessary, label the wiring to all devices in the network.

Power the Ethernet switch
This device is suitable for use in Class I, Division 2, Groups A, B, C and D or
non-hazardous locations only.
WARNING: EXPLOSION HAZARD - Do not disconnect equipment
unless power has been removed or the area is known to be nonhazardous.
WARNING: EXPLOSION HAZARD - Substitution of components may
impair suitability for Class I, Division 2.
Operation
Features
Auto-Negotiation
With the Auto-Negotiation feature, the Ethernet switch automatically
configures itself to achieve the best possible mode of operation over the
copper link. The device broadcasts its speed (10 Mb/s or 100 Mb/s) and
duplex capabilities (either full- or half-duplex) and negotiates the best mode of
operation between the two linked devices.
If the device is connected to a non-negotiating device over the copper link, it
will default to 10 Mb/s speed, half-duplex mode.
The Ethernet switch is designed for both a primary and a backup power
supply via the 6-contact terminal block, located on the top panel of the
device. Both power inputs can be connected simultaneously to live DC
power sources. If one power source fails, the other live source acts as a
backup, and automatically supplies the Ethernet switch with power.

AutoCross
The AutoCross feature allows either straight-through (MDI) or crossover (MDI-
X) cables to be used when connecting the Ethernet switch to devices such as
PLCs or workstations. AutoCross determines the characteristics of the cable
connection and automatically configures the unit to link up, regardless of the
cable configuration. (Requires no operator intervention.)
Plug-and-Play
The Ethernet switch models are plug-and-play devices, so that software
configuration is not required at installation or during maintenance.

CAUTION: Before connecting the Ethernet switch to the 12-48 VDC
power source, ensure the power source voltage is stable.
To provide PRIMARY (PWR1) power to the Ethernet switch:
1.Insert the positive (+) DC wire from the 12-48VDC power source into the
terminal marked “V1+”.
2.Insert the negative (-) DC wire into the terminal marked “V1-”.
3.Secure the wires by tightening the corresponding screws on the side of

1.Insert the positive (+) DC wire from the 12-48VDC power source into the

2.Insert the negative (-) DC wire into the terminal marked “V2-”.

•Packets with source and destination addresses belonging to the same port
segment are filtered and constrained to one port (relieving the rest of the
network from the need to process them).
•Packets with a destination address to another port segment are forwarded
to the appropriate port, and are not sent to the other ports where it is not
needed.
•Packets that are used in maintaining the operation of the network (such as
the occasional multi-cast packet) are forwarded to all ports.
The Ethernet switch operates in the store-and-forward switching mode, which
eliminates bad packets and enables peak performance to be achieved when
there is heavy traffic on the network.
Switching and Address Learning
The Ethernet switch address table holds up to 1K node addresses, making it
suitable for use with large networks. The address tables are self-learning, so
that as nodes are added, removed, or moved from one segment to another, the
Ethernet switch automatically keeps up with new node locations. An addressaging algorithm deletes the least-used addresses in favor of newer, more
frequently used addresses. To reset the address buffer, power down the unit
and then power it back up.

FAULT (red)on = If any of the five (5) port alarm switches are “on“
and the link on the corresponding port is inactive (ex:
switch 3 is “on” and port 3 is inactive); or there is a loss
of either the primary power or backup power.

The “100M” LEDs indicate the link status of the corresponding fiber port
(100Base-FX):
100M(green)on = Fiber link is active.
flashing = Data is being transmitted over the fiber link.
