Hardware Installation
1. The extender is DIN rail mountable and can be
located in environments with temperatures ranging
from -40 to 75°C. Relative humidity should be
between 5% to 95%, non-condensing.
2. Mount the extender on standard DIN rail by hooking
the top rear of the extender on to the top edge of the
DIN rail. As the unit is pressed into the DIN rail, the
spring-loaded bottom tab should snap on, securing
the bottom. To remove extender from DIN rail, use a
small flathead screw driver, pull down on the spring
loaded tab on the bottom of the extender while pulling
bottom outward. The extender can also be panel
mounted using the optional panel mount kit
EIRPMKT.
Provide DC power to the unit between 12 – 48 volts.
3.
While only one power source is required to power up
the Ethernet Extender, using two sources provides
redundancy for mission critical applications. The
removable terminal block accepts 14 – 24 AWG wire.
Use copper conductors only, 60/75℃, 14-24 AWG
torque value 4.5 lb-in.
4. Be sure polarity matches diagram next to the
terminal block. Terminals labeled Power are
positive while GND is negative. An optional power
port labeled Power1 is available with use of
12VDC AC to DC power adapter (PS12VDC3P).
5. Set the DIP switch located on the top of the Ethernet
Extender to Loc (Local) or Rmt (Remote). Ethernet
Extenders work in pairs and must have one unit set as
Loc, the other as Rmt.
6. Connect the Ethernet cable to the RJ-45 port on the
front of Ethernet Extender.
7. Connect the coaxial cable to the BNC port on the front
of the Ethernet Extender. Opposite end connects with
paired Ethernet Extender located elsewhere. Coax
cable must be terminated with male BNC or F
connectors. BNC to F-Type adaptor required for F
style connector (included).
