Hardware Installation 

STEP 1: After removing the NPort 5600-8-DT from the box, place 
it on a desktop or other horizontal surface. Connect the 12-48 VDC 
power adaptor to the NPort 5600-8-DT’s power input when using 
an AC power source, or connect the NPort 5600-8-DT’s terminal 
block directly to a DC power source. 

STEP 2: Use an Ethernet cable to connect the NPort 5600-8-DT to 
a network hub or switch. You can also connect directly to your 
computer’s Ethernet port, which is convenient for initial 
configuration or testing. 

STEP 3: Connect the NPort 5600-8-DT’s serial port to a serial 
device. 

Wall or Cabinet Mounting 
The NPort 5600-8-DT comes with two metal attachment plates to 
allow installation on a wall or the inside of a cabinet. First, attach 
the brackets to the back of the NPort with screws. Next, mount the 
unit on a wall or cabinet with screws. Screws should be less than 
6.0 mm in head diameter, and less than 3.5 mm in shaft diameter.
