Introduction The 4-Port PoE + 1-Port TP Industrial Fast Ethernet Switch is a cost-effective solution and meets the high reliability requirements demanded by industrial applications. In addition, the industrial switch provides the PoE function for kinds of Powered Devices to receive power as well as data over the RJ-45 cable.
Package Contents Please refer to the package contents list below to verify them against the checklist. IFE-0500 CD Manual Pluggable Terminal Block (attached on the switch) 2 wall mount plates with screws One DIN-Rail (attached on the switch) Compare the contents of the industrial switch with the standard checklist above. If any item is damaged or missing, please contact the local dealer for service.
Hardware Description In this paragraph, the Industrial switch’s hardware spec, port, cabling information, and wiring installation will be described.
Top View The top view of the 4-Port PoE + 1-Port TP Industrial Fast Ethernet Switch has one terminal block connector of two DC power inputs.
LED Indicators The diagnostic LEDs located on the front panel of the industrial switch provide real-time information of system and optional status. The following table provides the description of the LED status and their meanings for the switch.
Ports RJ-45 ports The UTP (RJ-45) Fast Ethernet ports will auto-sense for 10Base-T or 100Base-TX connections. Auto MDI/MDIX means that the switch can connect to another switch or workstation without changing straight through or crossover cabling. See the below figures for straight through and crossover cable schematic. RJ-45 Pin Assignments Pin Number Assignment 1 Tx+ 2 Tx- 3 Rx+ 6 Rx- “+” and “-” signs represent the polarity of the wires that make up each wire pair.
Straight Through Cable Schematic Cross Over Cable Schematic 10
Cabling Twisted-pair segment can be connected with unshielded twisted pair (UTP) or shielded twisted pair (STP) cable. The cable must comply with the IEEE 802.3u 100Base TX standard for Category 5. The cable between the converter and the link partner (switch, hub, workstation, etc.) must be less than 100 meters (328 ft.) long.
Wiring the Power Inputs Please follow the steps below to insert the power wire. Insert the positive and negative wires into the V+ and V- contacts on the terminal block connector. Tighten the wire-clamp screws for preventing the wires from loosing.
Wiring the Fault Alarm Contact The fault alarm contact is in the middle of terminal block connector as the picture shows below. When the wires are inserted into ports 3 and 4, they automatically detect the fault status in the event of a power failure by forming an open circuit. An example for the fault alarm contact is shown as below: Insert the wires into the fault alarm contact. The wire gauge for the terminal block should be in the range between 12~ 24 AWG.
Mounting Installation DIN-Rail Mounting The DIN-Rail is screwed on the industrial switch when out of factory. If the DIN-Rail is not screwed on the industrial switch, please see the following pictures to screw the DIN-Rail on the switch. Follow the steps below to hang the industrial switch. 1. 2. 3. Use the screws to screw the DIN-Rail on the rear side of the industrial switch. To remove the DIN-Rail, reverse the step 1.
4. Then, lightly push the DIN-Rail into the track. 5. 6. Check if the DIN-Rail is tightened on the track or not. To remove the industrial switch from the track, reverse steps above.
Wall Mount Plate Mounting 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Follow the steps below to mount the industrial switch with wall mount plate. Remove the DIN-Rail from the industrial switch; loose the screws to remove the DIN-Rail. Place the wall mount plate on the rear panel of the industrial switch. Use the screws to screw the wall mount plate on the industrial switch. Use the hook holes at the corners of the wall mount plate to hang the industrial switch on the wall. To remove the wall mount plate, reverse steps above.
Hardware Installation In this paragraph, we are going to mention how to install the 4-Port PoE + 1-Port TP Industrial Fast Ethernet Switch and the installation points to be attended to it. Installation Steps 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. Unpack the Industrial switch packing. Check if the DIN-Rail is screwed on the Industrial switch or not. If the DIN-Rail is not screwed on the Industrial switch, please refer to DIN-Rail Mounting section for DIN-Rail installation.
Network Application This segment provides the sample to help user have more actual idea of industrial switch application. For a sample application of the industrial switch, see the figure below.
Troubleshooting Verify that is using the right power cord/adapter (DC 48V), please don’t use the power adapter with DC output voltage higher than 48V, or it will burn this equipment down. Select the proper UTP/STP cable to construct your network. Please check that is using the right cable.
