Mounting Dimensions
Unit: mm (inch)
Wall Mounting
In most applications, wall mounting the TAP-213 is the most commonly
used method, which makes installation easier as illustrated below:
STEP 1:
Attach the wall-mounting plates with M4 screws.

- 6 -
STEP 2:
Mounting the
TAP-213 to a wall requires 4 screws. Use
the
TAP-213 device, with wall-mounting plates
attached, as a guide to mark the correct locations of
the 4 screws. The heads of the screws should be 6.0
mm in diameter, and the
shafts should be less than
3.5
mm in diameter, as shown in the figure at the right.
Do not drive the screws in all the way—leave a space of about 2 mm to
allow room for sliding the wall-mount panel between the wall and the
screws.
NOTE
Test the screw head and shank size by inserting the screw into
one of the keyhole shaped apertures of the
wall-mounting
plates before driving the screws into the wall.
STEP 3:
Once the screws are driven into the wall, insert the four screw heads
through the large opening of the keyhole-shaped apertures in the wall-
mount plates, and then slide the TAP-213 downwards, as indicated to
the right. Tighten the four screws for added stability.
DIN-Rail Mounting (Optional)
The DIN-rail mounting method is used in industrial or railway
application. You will require a DIN-rail attachment plate, which is an
optional accessory, to mount the TAP-213 to a DIN rail. When you
attach the DIN-rail attachment plate to the TAP-213, make sure that
the stiff metal spring is situated towards the top as shown in the
following instructions:

- 7 -
STEP 1:
Attached the DIN-rail mounting plates to the TAP-213 using M3 screws.
STEP 2:
Insert the top of the DIN rail into
the slot just
below the stiff metal
spring.
STEP 3:
The DIN
-rail attachment unit will
snap into place as shown in the
figure below:
To remove the TAP-213 from the DIN rail, simply reverse Steps 2 and
3.

- 8 -
Pole Mounting (Optional)
You might find it more convenient to mount the TAP-213 on a pole for
some applications, as illustrated below. The edges of the iron rings that
are part of the pole-mounting kit are sharp. We suggest that you wear
gloves to protect your hands during the installation process.
STEP 1:
Attach the pole-mounting kit to the TAP-213 using M4 screws.
STEP 2:
Install the TAP-213 on a pole and use a flathead screwdriver to fasten
the screws on the rings of the pole-mounting kit to secure it to the
pole.

Wiring Requirements
WARNING
Safety First!
Be sure to disconnect the power cord before installing and/or
wiring your TAP-213.
WARNING
Safety First!
Calculate the maximum possible current in each power wire and
common wire. Observe all electrical codes
that dictate the
maximum current allowed for each wire size.
If the current goes above the maximum ratings, the wiring
could overheat, causing serious damage to your equipment.
You should also pay attention to the following items:
•Use separate paths to route wiring for power and devices. If power
wiring and device wiring paths must cross, make sure the wires are
perpendicular at the intersection point.
NOTE
Do not run signal or communications wiring and power wiring in
the same wire conduit. To avoid interference, wires with
different signal characteristics should be routed separately.
•You can use the type of signal transmitted through a wire to
determine which wires should be kept separate. The rule of thumb
is that wiring with similar electrical characteristics can be bundled
together.
•Keep input wiring and output wiring separate.
•It is strongly advised that you label wiring to all devices in the
system for easy identification.

Communication Connections
10/100/1000BaseT(X) Ethernet Port Connection
The TAP-213 has a 10/100/1000BaseT(X) Ethernet port (LAN1 8-pin
shielded M12 X-coded connector). The 10/100/1000TX port located on
the front panel is used to connect to Ethernet-enabled devices. Most
users configure this port for Auto MDI/MDI-X mode, in which case the
port’s pinouts are adjusted automatically depending on the type of
Ethernet cable used (straight-through or cross-over), and the type of
device (NIC-type or HUB/Switch-type) connected to the port.

100/1000Base Fiber Port Connection
The TAP-213 has a 100/1000Base socket, which you can use to connect
SFP modules. You must use a fiber transceiver with the SFP module for
the module to work properly. The concept behind the fiber port and
cable is that, unlike electric signals, optical signals do not require a
circuit in order to transmit data. Suppose you want to connect two
devices, device 1 and device 2, one of the optical lines is used to
transmit data from device 1 to device 2, and the other optical line is
used to transmit data from device 2 to device 1, for full-duplex
transmission. Remember to connect the Tx (transmit) port of device 1
to the Rx (receive) port of device 2, and the Rx port of device 1 to the
Tx port of device 2. If you are using your own cable, we suggest
labeling the two sides of a line with the same letter (A-A and B -B, as
shown in the example below), or A1-A2 and B1-B2).
