IE-SW-EL05-4GT-1GESFP (Part No. 2682220000) 
1.  Introduction 
Ethernet Switches from Weidmüller are designed with a very compact housing size and 
are fitted with a robust housing. To ensure reliable, error-free operation, and to prevent 
damage or injury, please read the operating instructions, all safety information provided 
in this document and any other safety information that were supplied with the product. 
2.  Safety notice 
Switch off the electrical power before removing the power connection! 
  The device heats up during operation. Allow the unit to cool down or use 
protection gloves when carrying out any work. 
  The device may only be connected to the supply voltage shown on the 
product label. Higher voltage than specified will destroy the device. 
The device must be supplied by a SELV source as defined in the Low 
Voltage Directive 2014/35/EU and 2014/30/EU. 
  Installation, commissioning and maintenance may only be performed by 
qualified electricians. 
  Observe the operating instructions. 
  Indoor use and pollution degree II, it must be wiped with a dry cloth for 
clean up the device and label. 
o Utilisation en intérieur et degré de pollution II, il faut l'essuyer avec un 
chiffon sec pour nettoyer l'appareil et son étiquette. 
  Do not block air ventilation holes. 
o Ne bouchez pas les orifices de ventilation. 
  If the equipment is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer, 
the protection provided by the equipment may be impaired. 
o Si l’appareil est utilise d’une maniere non specifiee par le fabricant, la 
protection qu’il apporte peut se voir diminuee. 
  Shall be mounted in the Industrial Control Panel and ambient 
temperature is not exceed 75 degrees C. 
o Doit être monté dans le panneau de commande industriel et la 
température ambiante ne doit pas dépasser 75 degrés C. 
Intended use 
The  device  is  intended  for  the  realization  of  communication  networks  within  an  industrial 
environment, it is intended to be used in a restricted access location. The device may only be used 
within  the scope of  the specified technical data. The device is  intended to  be  mounted to a well-
grounded  mounting  surface,  such  as  a  metal  panel.  Any  other  use  may  result  in  unintentional 
malfunction and damage. Observing the documentation is part of the intended use. 
Environmental conditions 
This equipment is intended to be used in a restricted access location. 
When planning the installation site make sure that the ambient temperature during operation will not 
exceed the temperature given in the technical data.  
Also make sure that the air flow will not be compromised by other devices. 
Ensure that the mounted and wired device is not exposed to any mechanical stress. 
FCC compliance 
This device complies with part 15 of FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: 
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference 
received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. 
3.  Package Checklist

13. DIN-Rail kit 
5.  Mounting Dimensions      (units = mm) 
6.  DIN-Rail Mounting 
Slide the switch onto a DIN-rail and make sure that the switch’s Din-rail clip clicks into 
the rail firmly. 
STEP 1: Insert the top of the DIN-
Rail into the slot just below the stiff 
metal spring. 
STEP 2: The DIN-Rail attachment 
unit will snap into place as shown 
below. 
To remove the DIN-rail from the Ethernet Switch, simply reverse Steps 1 and 2. 
7.  Grounding Ethernet Switch 
  ATTENTION 
-  Grounding and wire routing help limit the effects of noise due to 
electromagnetic interference (EMI).  
-   the ground connection from the ground screw to the grounding surface 
prior to connecting devices. 
-  This product is intended to be mounted to a well-grounded mounting 
surface, such as a metal panel. 
-  The shielding ground of the RJ45 ports are electrically connected to the 
ground connection (screw).
