The NTI ETH-4X1Manual Ethernet Switch was designed to enable the connection of one of either four DEVICEs to one NETWORK or one DEVICE to one of four separate NETWORKs using standard ethernet cable. The user can control the ETH-4X1 manually to make a single connection active between one NETWORK and one DEVICE at a time.
PREPARATION FOR INSTALLATION • A location should be chosen for the ETH-4X1 such that the ethernet cable from each supported device will reach it. • The ethernet cables must be run to the locations where the ETH-4X1 switch, COMMON, and the SELECTABLE(s) will be mounted.
RS232 FEATURES AND FUNCTIONS 1. Power- LED to indicate the ETH-4X1 Manual Ethernet Switch has power to operate 2. 12VDC .5A- female connection jack for the AC adapter 3. Select Switches- (1-4)- for manual control of "COMMON" and user selectable ports (1-4) 4.
INSTALLATION Connect the Cables Position the ETH-4X1 Manual Ethernet Switch such that the ethernet cable from the COMMON , the AC adapter power cable, and the ethernet cables from the SELECTABLEs can reach the ETH-4X1 Manual Ethernet Switch. Connect one end of an ethernet cable to the COMMON (See Fig.1.) Connect the other end of that cable to the "COMMON"...
Connect the AC adapter power connector to the 12VDC port on the ETH-4X1 Manual Ethernet Switch. Make sure the power connector is properly inserted. (See Fig. 3.) Plug the AC adapter into a power outlet. The “Power” LED on the ETH-4X1 Manual Ethernet Switch should illuminate indicating that a proper power connection has been made.
Interconnection Cable Wiring Method The CAT5(e)UTP connection cable between the COMMON, SELECTABLE(s) and the ETH-4X1 Manual Ethernet Switch is terminated with male ethernet connectors and must be wired according to the EIA /TIA 568A industry standard. Wiring is as per the table and drawing below.
