QUICK START GUIDE
CNGE24FX12TX12MS[POE]
Industrial Grade Managed Ethernet Switch w/
12 × 100/1000Base-FX + 12 × 10/100/1000Base-TX Ports
w/ Optional 30W PoE
The ComNet CNGE24FX12TX12MS[POE] has twelve 100/1000Base-FX SFP* ports
and twelve 10/100/1000Base-TX ports. All SFP ports utilize ComNet SFP modules
for fiber and connector type and distance. The IEEE802.3-compliant unit offers
multiple Ethernet redundancy protocols (MSTP/RSTP/STP/ERPS (G.8032)) which
protect your applications from network interruptions or temporary malfunctions by
redirecting transmission within the network. The switch provides advanced IP-based
management that can limit the maximum bandwidth for each connected IP device,
allowing the user to adjust usage. Application-based QoS can set a higher priority
for data streaming. The Device-Binding function can prevent unauthorized network
access, increasing security.
The CNGE24FX12TX12MSPOE models provide twelve electrical ports supporting up to
thirty watts of power. All PoE ports are IEEE 802.3at compliant.
Each model is provided with redundant power inputs which can be either one mains
voltage and one or two low voltage DC inputs or two low voltage DC inputs.

Safety Information
»Only ComNet service personnel can service the equipment. Please contact ComNet Technical
Support.
»The equipment should be installed in locations with controlled access, or other means of
security, and controlled by persons of authority. When operating at temperatures above 51º C, the
equipment surfaces will be hot to the touch. Installation in restricted access location is required
for this case.
»For POE models requiring a power supply not labeled LPS, the unit should be installed in a
restricted access location using a 60950-1, 2nd Edition + Am. 1 + Am. 2 Certified power supply
rated for the ambient temperature in which it is installed. Total derated power rating should be
greater than the sum of the attached loads plus 30 W for the switch.
»Use CDRH compliant SFP modules when using fiber connectivity with this device.
»When used in Australia or New Zealand, the product is certified for intra building applications
only, and should not be directly connected to network cables with outside plant routing.

Power Supply
For CNGE24FX12TX12MS Models, Power Supply must be 6 to 14 VDC @ 30 W max or 90-240 VAC
mains.
For CNGE24FX12TX12MSPOE Model, Power Supply must be 48 to 57 VDC @ 390 W max or
90-240 VAC mains.
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS:
A) Elevated Operating Ambient - If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating
ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient. Therefore,
consideration should be given to installing the equipment in an environment compatible with
the maximum ambient temperature (Tma) specified by the manufacturer.
B) Reduced Air Flow - Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of air
flow required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.
