F/H indicates Full and Half duplex for fiber ports only. There is a power (PWR) LED to indicate that the unit is turned ON. The fiber ports on the RFL 3000 ES42H Edge switches are multi-mode or single-mode with an SC, ST or small form factor connector (MTRJ multi mode or LC single-mode).
This dynamic buffer allocation provides the capability for the maximum resources of the RFL 3000 ES42 Series unit to be applied to all traffic loads, even when the traffic activity is unbalanced across the ports. Since the...
(MC14- Tray) or Din-Rail mounted. Rugged metal case, Industrial grade RFL 3000 ES42H Series have a robust design and are packaged in a rugged sheet metal enclosure to ensure high reliability and durability even when placed in industrial or outdoor applications.
Available in three “hardiness” models (Yellow - “office/wiring closet”, Orange – “Hardened”, Red- “Premium rated (outdoor)”), and hundreds of port-type combinations, RFL 3000 ES42 Series Edge Switches fit very well in almost any environment to enable users to scale their networks quickly and cost effectively. The edge-of-the-network...

PLC required one (or two for redundancy) Ethernet ports to carry status and control data to the control center. The RFL 3000 ES42H and CS14H provide a good solution with their multiple options and hardened features. The two Fiber ports on the Edge switches are ideal for secure data communications over long distances.

Installation & User Guide (5/06) Example 3: RFL 30000ES42H: In this example, the RFL 3000 ES4H Edge Switches are deployed to serve as a secure corporate or transportation surveillance system. CCTV cameras may be spread out over many miles in temperature un-controlled locations and with pan, tilt and zoom (PTZ) controlled through an Ethernet copper port .The Edge Switches provide two fiber...
Secure attachment of mounting clips for panel - mounting The compact and lightweight design of the RFL 3000 ES42 Series allows it to be easily installed in almost any location. A Velcro strip may be used for mounting the unit on a vertical surface such as a wall or cabinet, or for securing the unit on a table-top or shelf.
AC power supply in the rear area of the tray. (AC PS units that come with the office models of the Edge Switch’s are not used). Because of the thicker size, only eight RFL 3000 ES42H units can fit in one MC14- TRAY.
The 12V DC power input jack has a plug of 2.5mm, center +ve , with 6 ft. cord. All the AC power supply info detail is provided in Technical Specs Section 1.1. The RFL 3000 ES42 Series is designed to be used with UL listed Class II power supplies. RFL 3000 ES42H 12VDC/ 24VDC/ -48VDC...
Restricted Access Areas (dedicated equipment rooms, electrical closets or the like). 3.6 Powering the RFL 3000 ES42H (DC internal) with 12V, 24V or –48VDC power input Each RFL 3000 ES42H is equipped with an internal DC power supply, and has built-in screw terminals for secure attachment of the power input leads.
12VDC leads) to the DC power terminal block on the RFL 3000 ES42H Edge Switch (as shown in the Figure). The DC terminal block on the RFL 3000 ES42H is located on the left side of the unit and is equipped with three (3) screw-down lead posts. The power terminals are identified as positive (+) and negative (-), and they are floating inside the unit so that either of the terminals may be grounded by the user if desired.
Installation & User Guide (5/06) Connecting Ethernet Media The RFL 3000 ES42-Series Edge Switches can be connected to two media types i.e. fiber and copper (RJ-45) types, runt at 100BASE-TX, 10BASE-T and 100BASE-FX only. CAT 5 cables should be used when making 100BASE-TX connections. When the ports are used as 10BASE-T ports, CAT 3 may be used.
3. Connect the Transmit (TX) port (light colored post) on the RFL 3000 Fiber port to the Receive (RX) port of the remote device. Begin with the color-coded strand of the cable for this first TX-to-RX connection.
Pulse (FLP) coding for the 100BASE-TX signaling system. When connecting a NIC to the RFL 3000 ES42H-Series, it may be necessary to reload the NIC drivers on the user device if the NIC has been communicating with a protocol other than 100BASE-TX (such as 10BASE-T).
(See Section 4.2). When the connected device is 10 Mbps, the RFL 3000 ES42Hs obeys all the rules of 10 Mbps Ethernet configurations. The 10 Mbps users can “communicate” with 100Mbps users as well as other 10 Mbps users through the switch.
When this option is present, the terminal block for Alarm Contacts is part of the Power Input panel in the RFL 3000 ES42s case. The DC power input connection is in the same panel.
