KSwitch R20 – Preliminary User Guide Rev. 0.6 4/ Switch Features Before implementing the KSwitch R20 switch series, Kontron recommends new users to take a few minutes to learn about the switch’s various features. 4.1. Faceplate Features The faceplate features up to 28 Ethernet ports each with three indication LEDs whereby ports 1 to 24 are Fast Ethernet (10/100BASE-T) or Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000BASE-T) ports and ports 25 to 28 are 10 Gigabit Ethernet (100/1000/2500/5000/10GBASE-T) ports.
Ports [1 to 24]-Four ports groups of Fast Ethernet (10/100BASE-T) or Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000BASE-T) Ports [25 to 28]-Two ports groups of 10 Gigabit Ethernet (100/1000/2500/5000/10GBASE-T) Kontron recommends the use of cabling using supported cabling standard or better cable. The M12 connector type of Ethernet ports [1 to 24] distinguishes between Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet ports, whereby fast Ethernet uses 4-pin and Gigabit Ethernet uses 8-pin.
KSwitch R20 – Preliminary User Guide Rev. 0.6 4.2.2. PoE/PoE+ The PoE/PoE+ transmission circuitry is included on all 28 Ethernet ports with a maximum of 30 W per port and automatic detection of the connected PD’s PoE type and supply class, to power the PD accordingly.
Only connect the switch to an external power supply providing the voltage type (AC or DC) and the input power (max. current) specified on the Kontron Product Label and meeting the requirements of the Limited Power Source (LPS) and Power Source (PS2) of UL/IEC 62368-1.
Only connect the switch to an external power supply providing the voltage type (AC or DC) and the input power (max. current) specified on the Kontron Product Label and meeting the requirements of the Limited Power Source (LPS) and Power Source (PS2) of UL/IEC 62368-1.
KSwitch R20 – Preliminary User Guide Rev. 0.6 4.3.3. Power LED The three power LEDs L1, L2 and L3 indicate the power state of the Input Voltage (P1) and Auxiliary PoE Input Voltage (P2) connection. Table 9: Power LED (L1, L2, L3)
KSwitch R20 – Preliminary User Guide Rev. 0.6 The COM port connector is M12-A coded female 5-pin connector with inner push-pull. For more information, refer to the COM (RS232) port pin assignment. Table 10: COM RS232 Port M12-A Coded 5-pin Pin Assignment...
KSwitch R20 – Preliminary User Guide Rev. 0.6 4.8. Rear Side Features The rear side includes no functional features. The switch’s product label is located on the rear side. Figure 4: Rear Side 1. Kontron Product label 4.9. Internal Features 4.9.1.
5/ Installing 5.1. Before Installing Before installing the Kswitch R20 switch series, observe the standard precautions within this user guide and ensure that the installation site meets the switch’s requirements as stated within this user guide. The switch is easily installed using either wall mount or 19”...
The switch maybe wall mounted in four possible orientations to suit the installation sites requirements. Installation Mount-surface Kontron recommends installing the switch on a clean, smooth and flat mount-surface, capable of bearing the weight of the product. The four screws required to attach the switch to the mount-surface are not provided.
The two 19” rack brackets attach to the left and right sides of the switch with two screws. Four additional screws and cage nuts (provided by the user) are required to install the switch within a 19” industrial rack cabinet. Kontron recommends using a well-ventilated 19”...
KSwitch R20 – Preliminary User Guide Rev. 0.6 Figure 8: 19” Rack Brackets Installed 1. 19” rack brackets with openings for Faceplate with access to connectors front side post cage nuts. 5.5. De-installing the switch When de-installing the switch, take into consideration that the switch may be hot. Always switch off the switch properly as described in this user guide and allow the switch to cool before de-installing.
6/ Starting Up 6.1. Before Starting Up Before starting up the KSwitch R20 series switch read the instructions in this user guide and observe the safety instructions in Chapter 2/General Safety Instructions. If connected incorrectly the switch may malfunction or short circuit damaging the switch or causing serious injury.
KSwitch R20 – Preliminary User Guide Rev. 0.6 6.2. Wiring the Input Voltage Mating Connector The user is responsible for wiring the Input Voltage mating connector with a suitable power cable. The power cable wires must be clearly marked (+/-/protective earth) to ensure a proper connection from the external DC power supply t the switch.
KSwitch R20 – Preliminary User Guide Rev. 0.6 6.3. Starting up The switch starts automatically when the Input Voltage (P1) is connected to an external DC power supply. To start the switch, perform the following: 1. Mount the ground cables ring on the protective earth’s M4 stud by inserting the ground ring followed by a washer, spring washer and a M4 nut.
Due to cable resistance, power dissipation occurs and the full PoE power budget is not delivered to the PD device. The cable resistance depends on the Ethernet cable(s) length and cannot be determined by Kontron. The power cable’s length must not exceed the recommended max. length of 3 m (9.84 ft.).
KSwitch R20 – Preliminary User Guide Rev. 0.6 Power Cable Dimensioning To protect the switch and any connected devices, ensure that the power cables are sufficiently dimensioned according to the switch’s maximum electrical specifications and as stipulated by EN62368-1 .
KSwitch R20 – Preliminary User Guide Rev. 0.6 7.4. Environmental Specification The KSwitch R20 switch series complies i with the following environmental requirements Table 14: KSwitch R20 Module Environmental Specification Environment Temperature Temp. Class OT4: -40°C to +70°C (-40°F to 158°F) (operating) Temp.
To provide a maximum airflow away from the switch, observe the minimum distances to surrounding parts, known as clearance within this user guide. Kontron recommends user to observe the following specified clearance distances of TBD mm/TBD inch (top and bottom, left and right sides, rear side and faceplate).
KSwitch R20 – Preliminary User Guide Rev. 0.6 7.7. Compliance The KSwitch R20 switch series plans to comply with the requirements and the approximation of the laws relating to compliance for ‘Railway’, ‘CE’, and International standards (or later thereof) that are constitutional parts of the declaration.
