Page 15: Thermal Considerations
Section 3 Thermal Considerations The EL212 switches are designed to operate from -40 to +85˚C when they are installed Overview properly. The switch is cooled via conduction and radiation. There are no fans. Instead there are various heat-sinks inside and outside the switch to conduct the heat from the components to the heavy-gauge aluminum case. -
Page 16: Power And Output Wiring
Otherwise, you may damage your switch by applying the wrong power. For the highest electrical safety the EL212F switches are provided with several grounding Safety points. First, there are two green ground... - Page 17 The power headers and plugs will be labeled to guide you in properly connecting your Power power. Make sure to reference this labeling when wiring your switch to make sure you are Labeling connecting the appropriate power to the correct terminals. If your switch does not have dual power inputs then do not connect anything to the terminals labeled Power 2.
- Page 18 The switches have an “OK” alarm output that can be tied to a PLC input, an alarm indicator “OK” Alarm (visible or audible) or other device to indicate when there is an alarm condition (such as the Output loss of a power input). The alarm output is a Form C relay with a normally open (NO), normally closed (NC) and common (C) screw terminal.

Page 19: Communication Wiring
Section 5 Communication Ports Wiring The EL212 switches provide connections to standard Ethernet devices such as PLCs, Overview Ethernet I/O, industrial computers and much more. Three types of communication ports may be found on these switches: RJ45 (copper) Ethernet ports, SFP (pluggable) Ethernet ports and console (serial RS232) ports. - Page 20 RJ45 Cable The maximum cable length for 10/100/1000BaseT is typically 100 meters (328 ft.). Distance Ports 9 -12 are gigabit ports that provide SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable) connectors. This Gig SFP allows you to use the RJ45 connectors for twisted pair copper connections or use the SFP Ports 9-12 connectors for fiber optic connections.
- Page 21 Typical Fiber SFP Transceiver and Dual-LC Cable Use standard fiber optic wiring techniques (not covered by this manual) to make your connections. The corresponding LED will be ON solid or flashing when you have made a proper connection. The RJ45 ports will auto-sense for Full or Half duplex operation, while the fiber ports default to Duplex full duplex operation or can be configured for Full or Half duplex.
- Page 22 The switch has a standard RS232 male DB9 serial port as shown in the previous images. Serial DB9 The pin-outs are defined below. Use a standard “null-modem” cable between your PC and Console Port the switch. This cable is not supplied but is available from any computer store. If your PC does not have a serial DB9 port then you can purchase an inexpensive USB to Serial converter from any computer store, or use the USB port on the switch.
