Wide Operating Temperature The operating temperature of the Industrial switch is between -40 ~ 80 ℃ (wide operating temperature model) or -10 ~ 70 ℃ (standard model). With such a wide range, you can use the Industrial switch in some of the harshest industrial environments that exist.
Packing List 1 x 5-port 10/100TX Industrial Ethernet Switch, or 1x 8-port 10/100TX Industrial Ethernet Switch 1 x User Manual 2 x Wall Mounting Bracket and Screws Safety Precaution Attention IF DC voltage is supplied by an external circuit, please use a protection device on the power supply input.
Hardware Description In this paragraph, we will introduce the Industrial switch’s hardware spec, port, cabling information, and wiring installation. Front Panel The Front Panel of the 5-port and 8-port 10/100BaseTX Industrial Switch is shown as below. Front Panel of the 5-port & 8-port 10/100BaseTX Industrial Switch...
Top View The top panel of the 5-port & 8-port 10/100BaseTX Industrial Switch is equipped one terminal block connector of two DC power inputs. Top Panel of the 5-port & 8-port 10/100BaseTX Industrial Switch Wiring the Power Inputs Please follow the steps below to insert the power wire. 1.
Wiring the Fault Alarm Contact The fault alarm contact is in the middle of terminal block connector as the picture shows below. Inserting the wires, it will detect the fault status which the power is failure or port link failure (for managed model) and form an open circuit.
LED Indicators There are few LEDs display the power status and network status located on the front panel of the Industrial switch, each of them has its own specific meaning as below table. Color Description Power input 1 is active Green Power input 1 is inactive Power input 2 is active...

Note “+” and “-” signs represent the polarity of the wires that make up each wire pair. All ports on this industrial switch support automatic MDI/MDI-X operation, you can use straight-through cables (See Figure below) for all network connections to PCs or servers, or to other switches or hubs. In straight-through cable, pins 1, 2, 3, and 6, at one end of the cable, are connected straight through to pins 1, 2, 3 and 6 at the other end of the cable.
Cabling Use the four twisted-pair, Category 5 cabling for RJ-45 port connection. The cable between the converter and the link partner (switch, hub, workstation, etc.) must be less than 100 meters (328 ft.) long.
Mounting Installation DIN-Rail Mounting The DIN-Rail is screwed on the industrial switch when out of factory. If the DIN-Rail is not screwed on the industrial switch, please see the following figure to screw the DIN-Rail on the switch. Follow the below steps to hang the industrial switch.
Page 16
First, insert the top of DIN-Rail into the track. Then, lightly push the button of DIN-Rail into the track. Check the DIN-Rail is tightly on the track. To remove the industrial switch from the track, reverse steps above.
Wall Mount Plate Mounting Follow the steps below to mount the industrial switch with wall mount plate. Remove the DIN-Rail from the industrial switch; loose the screws to remove the DIN-Rail. Place the wall mount plate on the rear panel of the industrial switch. Use the screws to screw the wall mount plate on the industrial switch.
Hardware Installation In this paragraph, we will describe how to install the 5-port or 8-port 10/100Base-TX Industrial Switch and the installation points for the attention. Installation Steps Unpack the Industrial switch packing. Check the DIN-Rail is screwed on the Industrial switch. If the DIN-Rail is not screwed on the Industrial switch.

Power on the Industrial switch. How to wire the power; please refer to the Wiring the Power Inputs section. The power LED on the Industrial switch will light up. Please refer to the LED Indicators section for meaning of LED lights. Prepare the twisted-pair, straight through Category 5 cable for Ethernet connection.
Troubles shooting Verify that you are using the right power cord/adapter (DC 12-48V), please don’t use the power adapter with DC output bigger than 48V, or it will burn this converter down. Select the proper UTP cable to construct your network. Please check that you are using the right cable.
