EICP8M Series
Industrial Ethernet 10/100 Mbps Compact Managed Switching Hubs
Installation Guide
EICP8M Managed Switches provide capabilities beyond both Plug and Play (PnP)
and configurable switches. Besides conventional PnP features (auto-negotiation,
10/100 Mbps data rate, half- or full-duplex operation, flow control), the EICP8M
adds advanced features such as RapidRing™, VLAN, Trunking, Quality of Service
(QoS), Port Mirroring, Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), and a
programmable fault relay.

Configuration can be done in two ways: a) via a web browser from a PC set to
communicate on the same LAN as the EICP default IP address of 192.168.92.68,
or b) via a console port connected to a Windows-based terminal emulation program
(for console settings, see page 3).
All ports support PAUSE flow control for full-duplex links and backpressure for half-
duplex. All RJ-45 ports feature Auto-MDIX for ease of cabling.
The switches are powered from wide-range, low-voltage AC or DC sources and
redundant power connections are provided for backup considerations. They come
with the hardware for either DIN-rail or panel mounting. The front panels feature
a power LED, a management status LED and bi-colour LEDs for the link status,
activity, and data rate of each port.
Designed for Industrial Ethernet applications, each switch
complies with EMC immunity and emissions compatibility
standards for industrial environments.
