2. Installation
This section describes the functionalities of the Industrial M12 Ethernet Switch’s
components and guides how to install it on the desktop. Basic knowledge of
networking is assumed. Please read this chapter completely before continuing.
2.1 Product Description
The Industrial M12 Ethernet Switch equipped with IP67 industrial case protection,
the Industrial M12 Ethernet Switch provides a high level of immunity against
electromagnetic interference and heavy electrical surges which are usually found
on plant floors or in curb side traffic control cabinets. The compact, IP67 standard
metal case of Industrial M12 Ethernet Switch allows either DIN rail or wall
mounting for efficient use of cabinet space.
Being able to operate under the temperature range from
-40 to 75 Degree C
, the
Industrial M12 Ethernet Switch can be placed in almost any difficult environment.
The Industrial M12 Ethernet Switch also possesses an integrated power supply
source with wide range of voltages
(ISW-800T-M12 with 12 to 48V DC)
and
(ISW-804PT-M12 with 48V DC)
for worldwide high availability applications
requiring dual or backup power inputs.
The ISW-800T-M12 equipped with eight 10/100Base-TX auto-negotiation ports M12
connector, the ISW-804PT-M12 equipped with eight 10/100Base-TX auto-negotiation
ports M12 connector with 4-Port IEEE 802.3af PoE Ports
(Port 5 to port 8)
; per
PoE port provide 15.4 Watts PoE output. The M12 connector provides tightly and
strong connection and guarantee stable Ethernet operation performance under high
vibration and shock environment.
The Industrial M12 Ethernet Switch has 2K MAC Address table and offers wire-
speed packets transfer performance without risk of packet loss, the high data
throughput of the device makes it ideal for most Fast Ethernet environments. With
a
1.6Gbps
internal switching fabric and featuring auto negotiation support in each
Fast Ethernet port, the Industrial M12 Ethernet Switch can handle large amounts of
data in a secure topology linking to a backbone or high capacity servers.
The flow control function enables the Industrial M12 Ethernet Switch to provide fast
and reliable data transfer, all of the M12 RJ-45 copper interfaces in the Industrial
M12 Ethernet Switch support 10/100Mbps Auto-Negotiation for optimal speed
detection through RJ-45 Category 3, 4, 5, 5e, 6 cables. The standard Auto-MDI/
MDI-X support can detect the type of connection to any Ethernet device without
requiring special straight or crossover cables.
