1. Introduction
Ethernet Switches from Weidmüller are designed for industrial applications and fitted with a
robust housing. To ensure reliable, error-free operation, and to prevent damage or injury, please
read the operating instructions, all safety information provided in this document and any other
safety information that were supplied with the product.
2. Safety notice
The device heats up during operation. Allow the unit to cool down or use protection
gloves when carrying out any work.
The device may only be connected to the supply voltage shown on the product label.
Higher voltage than specified will destroy the device.
The device must be supplied by a SELV source as defined in the Low Voltage
Directive 2014/35/EU and 2014/30/EU.
Installation, commissioning and maintenance may only be performed by qualified
electricians.
Observe the operating instructions.
Indoor use and pollution degree II, it must be wiped with a dry cloth for clean up
the device and label.
o Utilisation en intérieur et degré de pollution II, il faut l'essuyer avec un chiffon sec
pour nettoyer l'appareil et son étiquette.
Do not block air ventilation holes.
o Ne bouchez pas les orifices de ventilation.
If the equipment is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer, the
protection provided by the equipment may be impaired.
o Si l'appareil est utilise d'une maniere non specifiee par le fabricant, la protection
qu'il apporte peut se voir diminuee.
Shall be mounted in the Industrial Control Panel and ambient temperature is not
exceed 75 degrees C.
o Doit être monté dans le panneau de commande industriel et la température
ambiante ne doit pas dépasser 75 degrés C.
Intended use: The device is intended for the realization of communication networks within an
industrial environment, it is intended to be used in a restricted access location. The device
may only be used within the scope of the specified technical data. The device is intended to
be mounted to a well-grounded mounting surface, such as a metal panel. Any other use may
result in unintentional malfunction and damage. Observing documentation is part of the
intended use.
Environmental conditions: This equipment is intended to be used in a restricted access
location. When planning the installation site make sure that the ambient temperature during
operation will not exceed the temperature given in the technical data. Also make sure that the
air flow will not be compromised by other devices. Ensure that the mounted and wired device
is not exposed to any mechanical stress.
FCC compliance: This device complies with part 15 of FCC Rules. Operation is subject to
the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this
device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause
undesired operation.

5. DIN-Rail Mounting
Slide the switch onto a DIN-rail and make sure that the switch's Din-rail clip clicks into
the rail firmly.
STEP 1: Place the mounting clip
from above onto the mounting rail.
STEP 2: Press the device against
the DIN rail until the fastening
element engages on the mounting
rail.
To remove the Ethernet Switch from
the DIN-rail pull down the latch with
a screwdriver then move the device away from the DIN rail and lift it up.

7. Grounding Ethernet Switch
ATTENTION
- Grounding and wire routing help limit the effects of noise due to
electromagnetic interference (EMI).
- the ground connection from the ground screw to the grounding surface
prior to connecting devices.
- This product is intended to be mounted to a well-grounded mounting
surface, such as a metal panel.
- The shielding ground of the RJ45 ports are electrically connected to the
ground connection (screw).
8. Wiring Redundant Power Inputs and Fault Alarm
Relay
The switch supports redundant power supply inputs and provides a fault alarm relay for
detecting the user-configurable failure events
Interruption of Power 1 or Power 2 and
Link Loss of Ethernet Ports.
Refer to illustration below for correct wiring.
Warning / Avertissement
Take into consideration the following guidelines before wiring the device.
o Tenez compte des directrices suivantes avant de câbler l'appareil.
Terminal block is mating with Plug and suitable for 12-24AWG. Torque
