Overview The ToughNet TN-5308 series M12 unmanaged Ethernet switches are designed for industrial applications in harsh environments. The TN series switches use M12 connectors to ensure tight, robust connections, and guarantee reliable operation against environmental disturbances, such as vibration and shock. The TN-5308 series Ethernet switches provide 8 Fast Ethernet M12 ports, support IEEE 802.3/802.3u/802/3x with 10/100M, full/half-duplex, MDI/MDI-X auto-sensing, and provide an economical solution for your industrial Ethernet network.

Panel/Wall Mounting Mounting the TN-5308-LV/MV on the wall requires 3 screws. Please use the 3 screws packed in the panel mounting kit. STEP 1: Prepare the 3 screw holes on the wall according to the positions of the 3 screw holes on the switch shown on the mounting dimension diagram.
Wiring Requirements WARNING Turn the power off before disconnecting modules or wires. The correct power supply voltage is listed on the product label. Check the voltage of your power source to make sure you are using the correct voltage. Do NOT use a voltage greater than what is specified on the product label.
ATTENTION This product is intended to be mounted to a well-grounded mounting surface such as a metal panel. Connecting the Power Supply The M12 A coded 5 pin and M23 6 pin male connector on the TN-5308-LV/MV front panel is used for the DC power input. You have to prepare a power cord with M12/M23 A-coded 5-pin female connector to connect the switch to the DC power input.

Connecting the Data Lines 10/100BaseT(X) Ethernet Port Connection All TN-5308 models have 8 10/100BaseT(X) Ethernet ports (4-pin shielded M12 connectors with D coding). The 10/100TX ports located on the TN-5308’s front panel are used to connect to Ethernet-enabled devices. Most users 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.
M12 (4-pin, M) to RJ45 (8-pin) Cross-Over Cable Wiring M12 (4-pin, M) to RJ45 (8-pin) Straight-Through Cable Wiring Auto MDI/MDI-X Connection The Auto MDI/MDI-X function allows users to connect TN-5308’s 10/100BaseTX ports to any kind of Ethernet device, without needing to pay attention to the type of Ethernet cable being used for the connection.
Auto-negotiation takes place when an M12 cable connection is made, and then each time a LINK is enabled. The TN-5308 advertises its capability for using either 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps transmission speeds, with the device at the other end of the cable expected to advertise in the same way. Depending on what type of device is connected, this will result in agreement to operate at a speed of either 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps.
