1.1.2 19” Rack Mounting The EKI-4524I comes with a rack-mounted kit and can be mounted in an EIA standard size, 19-inch Rack. The Switch can be placed in a wiring closet with other equipment. 1.1.3 Advanced Protection...
1.4 Packing List • 1 x EKI-4524I Industrial Unmanaged Fast Ethernet Switch • 1 x eAutomation Industrial Communication CD-ROM and User manual • 2 x Rack Mounting Bracket and Screws • 1 x EKI-4524I Startup Manual 1.5 Safety Precaution Attention IF DC voltage is supplied by an external circuit, please use a protection device on the power supply input.
In this chapter, you will be given an overview of the EKI-4524I hardware installation procedures. 2.1 LED Indicators The LED indicators located on the panel display the power status and network status of EKI-4524I; each has its own specific meaning as the table shown below.
Figure 2.2: Attach mounting brackets with screws 2. After attaching the mounting brackets, position the EKI-4524I in the rack by lining up the holes in the brackets with the appropriate holes on the rack. Secure the Switch to the rack by a screwdriver with the rack-mounting screws.
Network Connection The EKI-4524I has 24 x RJ-45 ports that support connection to 10 Mbps Ethernet, or 100 Mbps Fast Ethernet, and half or full duplex operation. EKI-4524I can be connected to other hubs or switches via a twisted-pair straight-through or crossover cable up to 100m long. The connection can be made from any TX port of the EKI-4524I (MDI-X) to another hub or switch either MDI-X or uplink MDI port.
2.5 Wiring Power Input EKI-4524I comes equipped with a 10-position corss screw terminal block on where power input and fail- safe relay are located. Please follow the steps below to wire the power connection. Table 2.2: Terminal Block Pinouts Description...
Close circuit formed by wiring with an external power and an alarm device (a buzzer or a flashing LED), system will detect the power failure event. If a failure event occurs, the relay inside EKI-4524I will act as an open switch, and therefore break the external circuit. The fail-safe design is intended for triggering the connected alarm device for warning purposes.
