Remove the PXES6P Series Switch from the shipping container. Be sure to
keep the shipping container should you need to ship the unit at a later date. In the event
there are items missing or damaged, contact your supplier. If you need to return the unit
use the original shipping container. Refer to Section 5 Troubleshooting, for specific
return procedures.

Product Description
PXES6P Series Switches are designed as an Ethernet solution in heavy-duty industrial
applications, as well as an economical solution for the growing requirements of managed
networks. PXES6P, a
six port
versatile family of compact switches, loaded with factory
configurable fiber options and AC/DC power input options with Alarm terminal block and
innovative packaging is ready to serve the needs of edge-of-the network applications.
The PXES6P family of Switches have a wide breadth of port configurability and fiber
port type options - six 10/100 copper ports or four 10/100 copper ports and two 100 Mb Fiber
15
port or five copper ports with one 100Mb Fiber port built in. The compact package is ideal for
network installations, and is able to be conveniently DIN rail mounted to suit any application.
The Power Xpert Ethernet switches include Link-Loss-Learn (LLL) feature to qualify
for any redundant and self-healing managed network structures.
The Link-Loss-Feature in PXES6P allows the switches to flush the
internal address buffers in milliseconds to permit a quick change in
LAN packets flow, and pass the reconfiguration signal down the
line to other ring switches in the redundant structure for faster
recovery. The Power Xpert Ethernet switches, combined with other
managed switches, running STP/RSTP or S-Ring, can often provide high availability Redundant
LANs at economical cost.

The PXES6P units (shown in Fig 2.2a,b & c) are for factory floor applications. The
PXES6P models are built with high-grade components and constructed using special thermal
techniques and a metal case for
heavy duty industrial jobs. In addition to a hardened AC power
option and jack, terminals for internal 24V DC power are included. The ambient temperature
rating of –25 to 60C is for industrial use. No internal air flow is required for cooling, so it resists
dust, dirt, moisture, smoke and insects. Mounting options include stand-alone panel-mounting,
DIN rail, or rack-mount tray.
