2Introduction
2.1 Overview
The Gigabit Ethernet switch MS400863M provides 20 regular SFP slots, 4x SFP/TP combo
ports and 4x 1/10G SFP+ uplink ports. The device performs a wire-speed, non-blocking
switching fabric. This allows wire-speed transport of multiple packets at low latency on all
ports simultaneously. Store-and-forward technology is used to ensure maximum data
integrity. With this technology, the entire packet must be received into a buffer and checked
for validity before being forwarded. This prevents errors from being propagated throughout
the network. Additionally the device supports advanced security management capabilities and
network features. This switch is easy to deploy and configure, providing stable and quality
performance network services your business needs. Several management interfaces like
http/https, telnet, SSH, SNMP and a local serial port are implemented.

3.1 Redundant Power Interface
There are dual power inputs on the front panel of the switch for power redundancy
requirement, the switch has 100~240 VAC power socket for AC power input and 48 VDC
power input via terminal block.

3.3 RJ-45 Ports
The switch contains 4x 10/100/1000BASE-T RJ-45 ports. All RJ-45 ports support automatic
MDI/MDI-X operation and auto-negotiation, so the optimum data rate and transmission can
be selected automatically.
3.4 SFP/SFP+ Ports
MS400863M provides the Small Form Factor Pluggable (SFP) transceiver slots port 1 to port
24. The SFP slots 21-24 are shared with RJ-45 ports (combo interface RJ-45/SFP). In the
default configuration, if an SFP transceiver (purchased separately) is installed in a slot and
has a valid link on the port, the associated RJ-45 port is disabled. The ports 25 to 28 support
1/10GbE SFP+ transceiver slots. Generally, they are used as high performance backbone
interface, but it is also possible to insert GbE SFP transceivers. Ensure that the configuration
of the port speed matches with the used SFP or SFP+ module.
3.5 LEDs
The switch includes a display panel for system and port indications that simplify installation
and network troubleshooting. The red marked LEDs, which are located on left hand side of
the front panel for easy viewing provides general information about the switch status.
Additional LEDs indicate link and activity status for each port. Details are shown below, and
described in the following tables:

3.6 Management Port
An additional 10/100/1000Base-T RJ-45 port is intended for IP-based management access.
Per default, the port works like the other RJ-45 ports but the user can configure all needed
options by defining a new IP interface and configuring VLANs. Especially it is possible to
isolate the port from other data traffic.
3.7 Console Port
The device contains a serial RS-232 interface, the console port, as local management
interface. For the console port, a standard RJ-45 connector is used. Nevertheless, the pinning
is different. Use the attached RS-232 cable (Sub-D9 to RJ-45) to connect the console port
with the COM port of a PC. Per default, the following parameters are set:
-Speed: 115200 bps
-Data bits: 8
-Stop bits: 1
-Flow control: none
-Parity bit: none
This interface can be used if the IP settings are unknown. Only login (default: admin) and
password (default: microsens) must be known.
3.8 Reset Button
By pressing the reset button for a certain period of time, users can perform the following
tasks:
Reset: To reboot and get the switch back to the previous configuration settings saved.
Factory Default Reset: To restore the original factory default settings back to the switch.
Note: According to the table below, users can easily judge which task is being performed by
reading the LED behaviors while pressing the reset button. Once the LED behaviors are
correctly displayed, users may just release the button.

4Installing the Switch
This chapter describes the mechanical installation, the power connection and grounding of the
switch. Furthermore cabling of the Ethernet interfaces is explained.
The following precautions must be considered:
ESD Note: Circuit devices are sensitive to static electricity, which can damage their delicate
electronics. Dry weather conditions or walking across a carpeted floor may cause you to
acquire a static electrical charge. To protect your device, always:
-Touch the metal chassis of your computer to ground the static electrical charge
before you pick up the circuit device.
-Pick up the device by holding it on the left and right edges only.
Note: The switch is an indoor device. If it is to be used with outdoor devices such as outdoor
IP cameras or outdoor WiFi APs, then users are strongly suggested to install a surge protector
or surge suppressor in order to protect the switch.
4.1 Mounting
The switch can be mounted in a standard 19-inch equipment rack or on a desktop or shelf.
Both mounting options are explained in the following sections.
4.1.1 Rack Mounting
Step 1: Attach the mounting brackets to both sides of the chassis. Insert screws and tighten
then with a screwdriver to secure the brackets.
Figure 5: Attaching Brackets to the Switch
Step 2: Place the switch on a rack shelf in the rack. Push it in until the oval holes in the
brackets align with the mounting holes in the rack posts.
Step 3: Attach the brackets to the posts. Insert screws and tighten them.

4.1.2 Desktop or Shelf Mounting
Step 1: Verify that the workbench is sturdy and reliably grounded.
Step 2: Attach the four adhesive rubber feet to the bottom of the switch.
Figure 7: Attaching the Rubber Feet
4.2 Power Supply and Grounding
Before the power supply cable is connected, the device must be grounded. Connect the
grounding screw at the rear side with protective earth of the buildings installation. Ensure
strain-relief and defined cable routing. Any damage of the cable must be prevented.
4.2.1 AC Power Supply
Step 1: Connect the AC power cord to the AC power receptacle of switch.
Step 2: Connect the other end of the AC power cord to the AC power outlet.
Step 3: Check the system LED. If it is on, the power connection is correct.

Figure 8: AC Power
4.2.2 DC Power Supply
Step 1: Insert the negative/positive DC wires into the RTN/-48V terminals, respectively.
Step 2: To keep the DC wires from pulling loose, use a small flat-blade screwdriver to tighten
the wire-clamp screws on the front of the terminal block connector.
Step 3: Insert the terminal block into the receptor.
Step 4: Check the system LED. If it is on, the power connection is correct.
Step 5: Ensure strain relief and defined cable routing for the RJ-45 wires.
Figure 9: DC Power
Note: When wiring the DC power input, it is suggested to use AWG 20 –26 (American Wire
Gauge). Be sure to disconnect the power cord before installing and/or wiring the switch.
4.3 Network Interfaces and Cabling
4.3.1 RJ-45 Ports
Figure 10 shows a RJ-45 port and the corresponding connector. The RJ-45 ports are
supporting auto-crossing. Therefore, the use of crossed or straight cables is possible. The
auto-crossing function ensures that transmit lines are correctly connected with receiver lines.
