0°C to 70°C, and is designed to sustain higher than normal degrees of vibration and shock, making is suitable and safe for harsh industrial environments. This manual discusses how to install the INS-806 Industrial Fast Ethernet Switch. Terms/Usage In this guide, the term “Switch”...
806 is engineered and designed especially for the harsh, industrial type environments commonly encountered in heavy industry. With its redundant DC power inputs and high performance components, the INS-806 is perfectly suited for an industrial Ethernet deployment. Switching Technology Another approach to pushing beyond the limits of Ethernet technology is the development of switching technology.
Switching is a cost-effective way of increasing the total network capacity available to users on a local area network. A switch increases capacity and decreases network loading by dividing a local area network into different segments, which don’t compete with each other for network transmission capacity. Features The Switch was designed for easy installation and high performance in an industrial environment where vibration, shock,...

DC Powered Switch: Power is supplied through an external DC power source. Check the technical specification section for information about the DC power input voltage. Since the switch does not include a power switch, plugging its power adapter into a power outlet will immediately power it on. plastic green colored...
C. If not already inserted into the terminal block receptor into the Switch, do so now. D. Assure your DC power supply is stable and clean before applying DC power to the Switch.

ports are located on the Switch’s front panel and are used to connect to Ethernet-enabled devices. LED Indicators Switch Status LED Besides LED indicators for the 10/100BaseTX ports, the Switch has three LED status indicators. Power Indicator (PWR)/ Redundant Power Supply (RPS) This indicator lights green when the Switch is receiving power.
External Alarm Contact The INS-806 Industrial Switch has one Alarm Contact located on the green Power Block Contact on the top panel. For detailed instructions on how to connect the Alarm Contact power wires to the two middle contacts of...
Recommended Procedure for configuring and setting DIP switches during initial installation: 1. Turn all DIP switches OFF. 2. Install the INS-806 into your network. 3. Decide which port(s) need to be monitored or triggered alarm(s). 4. Turn the corresponding port DIP switch ON.
Switching, Filtering, and Forwarding Packets entering the INS-806 Switch with source and destination addresses belonging to the same port segment will be filtered, constraining those packets to one port, and relieving the rest of the network from the need to process them.
Port Speed & Duplex Mode After plugging the selected cable to a specific port, the system uses auto-negotiation to determine the transmission mode for any new twisted-pair connection: If the attached device does not support auto-negotiation or has auto-negotiation disabled, an auto-sensing process is initiated to select the speed and set the duplex mode to half-duplex.
