Wiring The Redundant Power Inputs; Communication Connections - Weidmuller IE-SW-VL08-8GT Hardware Installation Manual

Wiring the Redundant Power Inputs

The top two contacts and the bottom two contacts of the 6-contact terminal block
connector on the Ethernet Switch's top panel are used for the Ethernet Switch's
two AC/ DC inputs. Top and front views of one of the terminal block connectors
are shown here.
ATTENTION
Before connecting the Ethernet Switch to the AC/DC power inputs,
make sure the AC/DC power source voltage is stable.

Communication Connections

IE-SW-VL08-GT models have 8 10/100/1000BaseT(X) Ethernet ports, or 6
10/100/1000BaseT(X) and 2 combination ports—10/100/1000T(X) and
100/1000BaseSFP.
10/100/1000BaseT(X) Ethernet Port Connection
The 10/100/1000BaseT(X) ports located on Ethernet Switch's front panel are
used to connect to Ethernet-enabled devices. Most users will choose to configure
these ports for Auto MDI/MDI-X mode, in which case the port's pinouts are
adjusted automatically depending on the type of Ethernet cable used
(straight-through or cross-over), and the type of device (NIC-type or
HUB/Switch-type) connected to the port.
In what follows, we give pinouts for both MDI (NIC-type) ports and MDI-X
(HUB/Switch-type) ports. We also give cable wiring diagrams for
straight-through and cross-over Ethernet cables.

STEP 1: Insert the negative/positive AC/
DC wires into the V-/V+ terminals.
STEP 2: To keep the AC/ DC wires from
pulling loose, use a small flat-blade
screwdriver to tighten the wire-clamp
screws on the front of the terminal block
connector.
STEP 3: Insert the plastic terminal block
connector prongs into the terminal block
receptor, which is located on Ethernet
Switch's top panel.
