2.4 Grounding
Grounding and wire routing help limit the effects of noise due to electromagnetic interference
(EMI). Run the ground connection from the ground screw to the grounding surface prior to
connecting devices. The industrial Ethernet switch provides two ground holes which are on the
top and bottom of the wall mounting metal plate which are the same as wall mounting holes. It is
recommended to use a M3 or M4 ground screw and grounding wire, and attach the wire to either
ground hole with the screw. The grounding holes are shown below in Figure 2.3.
Figure 2.3
Caution: Using a shielded cable achieves better electromagnetic compatibility.
2.5 Ethernet Ports
M12 Interface (Auto MDI/MDIX)
◼Connection Format: M12 4-Pin D-Coded Female Connector
◼Transmission Rate: 10 Mbit/s or 100 Mbit/s
Prepare the M12 4-Pin D-Coded Ethernet Port mating cable for Ethernet connection. The M12 D-
Coded Ethernet ports are auto-sensing for 10Base-T or 100Base-TX device connections. Auto
MDI/MDIX means that you can connect to another switch or workstation without changing straight-
through or crossover cabling. See pin assignment shown in Table 2.2.

NOTE: “+” and “-” signs represent the polarity of the wires that make up each wire pair.
Caution:
1. Please use with copper conductors only.
2. Use conductors with insulation rated for at least 60/75°C.
3. Base the conductor Ampacity on a maximum termination temperature of 60/75°C.
2.6 Wiring the Power Inputs
This industrial Ethernet switch provides dual DC power inputs for redundancy through a M12 5-
Pin A-Coded male connector. Prepare the M12 5-Pin A-Coded cable for power connection. Table
2.3 shows the pin assignment.
NOTE: Recommended use the wire gauge between 18~24AWG.
Please follow the below steps to insert the power wire.

1. Insert the positive and negative power wires into the power connector on the industrial
Ethernet switch with pin4, pin1 (V1+, V1-) for power 1, and pin3, pin2 (V2+, V2-) for power 2.
2. Tighten the screw nut to prevent the connector from loosening.
Caution: The power input specification is complied with the requirements of
SELV (Safety Extra Low Voltage), and the power supply should be complied
with UL 61010-1 & UL 61010-2-201.

4.2 Maintenance and Service
•If the device requires servicing of any kind, the user is required to disconnect and remove it from
its mounting. The initial installation should be done in a way that makes this as convenient as
possible.
•Voltage/power lines should be properly insulated as well as other cables. Be careful when
handling them so as to not trip over.
•Do not under any circumstance insert foreign objects of any kind into the heat dissipation holes
located in the different faces of the device. This may not only harm the internal layout, but might
cause harm to user as well.
•Do not under any circumstance open the device for any reason. Please contact your dealer for
any repair needed or follow the instructions within the manual.
•Clean the device with dry soft cloth.

6. Trouble Shooting
•Verify you have the right power cord or adapter. Never use a power supply or adapter with a non-
compliant DC output voltage or it will burn the equipment.
•Select the proper cable to construct your network. Please check that you are using the right cable.
•Diagnosing LED Indicators: To assist in identifying problems, the switch can be easily monitored
with the LED indicators which help to identity if any problems exist.
oPlease refer to the LED Indicators section for LED light indication.
•If the power indicator LED does not turn on when the power cord is plugged in, the user may
have a problem with the power cord. Check for loose power connections, power losses, or
surges at the power outlet.
oPlease contact Antaira for technical support service if the problem still cannot be
resolved.
•If the industrial switch LED indicators are normal and the connected cables are correct but the
packets still cannot transmit, please check the system’s Ethernet devices’ configuration or status.
