1 Overview
The Model 5910 Ethernet Switch is a five port unmanaged switch used to route Ethernet
messages. It is easy to install and operate as no configuration is necessary. Once the Ethernet
connections are made and the unit is powered up, the 5910 will begin to operate.
The 5910 mounts on a DIN rail and is powered from the 5V available in SCADAPack
controllers and other 5000 series systems. The 5910 can also be powered from 11-30Vdc
sources such as 12Vdc batteries, 24Vdc power supplies or AC adapters. The 5910 is
available with a desktop mounting option.
Applications include in-plant I/O and connectivity between SCADAPacks and operator
workstations, other PLC devices and SCADA systems communications that uses 10BaseT
(10 Mbps) or 100BaseT (100 Mbps) in an industrial environment.

WARNING !
EXPLOSION HAZARD –WHEN IN HAZARDOUS LOCATIONS, TURN
OFF POWER BEFORE REPLACING OR WIRING MODULES.

3 Installation
The 5910 Ethernet Switch is available in two standard versions, the model 5910 and the
model 5910SA. The model 59105 is a standard 5000 Series module that connects to the
system I/O Bus as an integrated part of a Control Microsystems system. The model 5910SA
is a stand-alone version of the 5910 and is used with other devices such as personal
computers. Both versions of the modem are identical in every respect except that the
5910SA has rubber feet for desktop mounting.

Figure1: 5910 Module Layout
3.1 Field Wiring
The 5910 module has six connectors for field wiring. Refer to Figure1: 5910 Module
Layout for the location of these connectors.
The five Ethernet connections are terminated at the RJ-45 modular jacks labeled Ports1 through
5. The RJ-45 modular jack pin-out is compatible with straight-through Ethernet cables and
cross-over Ethernet cables. See the Ethernet Connection section for more information.
External power in the range of 11 to 30Vdc in maybe connected to pins 1 and 2 of P8. External
power may come from any DC power source such as a 12V battery, 12Vdc AC adapter or

5910 Ethernet Gateway Hardware Manual

24Vdc power supply. See the Configuration Jumpers section for setting J1 and the
Specifications for the current requirements.
Note: An AC adapter cannot be used in Hazardous Locations.
3.2 Ethernet Connection
The Ethernet network connects to the RJ-45 modular jacks labeled Port1 through Port5. The
RJ-45 jack mates with 8-pin connector and cable assemblies common to Ethernet 100Base-T
applications. Use data quality twisted pair cable. For best performance use shielded cable.
Pins 1,2,3 and 6 are used. Pins 4,5,7, and 8 are not used. See Figure 2: 5905 Ethernet RJ-45
Connection for pin connections.The Ethernet RJ-45 ports are MDI/MDIX Auto crossover
compatible. The allows the use of straight-through or cross-over cables.

3.3 Power Connections
The 5905 module may be powered in any one of the following ways:
5Vdc applied to the 5910 from the I/O Bus.
11-30Vdc applied to the 5910 on P8.
NOTE: The 5905 module is for use with Class 2 output power supplies only.
3.4 I/O Bus Connection
The 5910 module is normally powered through the connection to the system I/O Bus. The
5910 module is connected to the system I/O Bus using a cable connected to P1 or P2. Refer
to the System Configuration Guide, at the beginning of this manual, for complete
information on the system I/O Bus cabling. A jumper link must be installed in the bottom or
“Bus power 5V” position on J1.
3.5 External Power Connection using an AC adapter
The 5910 Ethernet Switch can be powered using a 12Vdc AC adapter (Control
Microsystems part number: 210056). The AC adapter plugs into a 120Vac supply and
provides 12Vdc to the 5910. A jumper link must be installed in the upper or “External
Power 11-30V” position on J1.

Ensure the AC adapter is not connected to the 120Vac supply.
Locate connector P8 on the 5910 module. Refer to Figure1: 5910 Module Layout for the
location of P8.
The output cable end should be factory installed on a four position removable terminal block.
The negative output connects to pin 1 and the positive output connects to pin 2. Pins 3 and 4 are
not used.
Insert the terminal block into onto connector P8.
Plug the AC adapter into a 120Vac supply.
Note: The 12Vdc adapter connection cannot be used in Hazardous Locations.
3.6 External Power Connection using an external power source
The 5910 Ethernet Switch can be powered using 11-30Vdc power source such as a 24Vdc
power supply. A jumper link must be installed in the upper or “External Power 11-30V”
position on J1.
Note: A Class 2 power source must be connected to the External Power 11-30Vdc input on
P8.
Ensure the power source is off.
Locate connector P8 on the 5910 module. Refer to Figure1: 5910 Module Layout for the
location of P8.
Connect the power source outputs to the terminal block. The negative output connects to pin 1
and the positive output connects to pin 2. Pins 3 and 4 are not used.
Insert the terminal block into onto connector P8.
Turn the power source on.
3.7 Configuration Jumpers
The 5910 Ethernet Switch uses a single configuration jumper link for selecting the input
power source.

4 Operation
The 5910 is a layer 2, five port unmanaged switch. No programming or configuration is
required to use the 5910. Once the Ethernet connections are made and the 5910 is powered it
will begin to operate. Unlike an Ethernet hub that broadcasts all messages to all ports, the
5910 Ethernet Switch will route messages only out of the appropriate port. Both 10BaseT
(10 Mbps) and 100BaseTx (100 Mbps) can be used on any of the ports. These ports will
auto0sense the speed and accommodate cross-over or straight-through cables.

5 Maintenance
This module requires no routine maintenance. If the module is not functioning correctly,
contact Control Microsystems Technical Support for more information and instructions for
returning the module for repair.
5.1 Troubleshooting
Problem
Solutions
Power LED is not on.
Check power source. If the input is 5V from the
Bus on P1 or P2 then the J1 jumper should be
in the bottom or “Bus power 5V” position. If the
input is 11-30Vdc from P8 then the J1 jumper
should be in the upper or “External Power 11-
30V” position.
