2 INSTALLATION AND OPERATION
2.1 INTRODUCTION
This section outlines the methods required to install and operate the OSD2251E successfully.
It should be studied carefully if damage to the equipment or poor results are to be avoided.
This equipment has been fully tested prior to dispatch and is ready for immediate operation.
However it is advisable to check for external transportation damage before operation. If
damage is evident, return the unit with the packaging to your supplier immediately.
2.2 INSTALLATION
2.2.1 WARNING AND PRECAUTIONS
▲ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY
WARNING: This is a Class A product. In a domestic environment this product may cause
radio interference in which case the user may be required to take adequate measures.
▲OPTICAL OUTPUT OPERATION
WARNING: Laser Safety: Class 1 Laser Product per IEC/EN 60825-1:2014 standard.

2.2.3 LOCATION
As with any electrical device, the OSD2251E should be placed where the switch will not be
subjected to extreme temperatures, humidity, or electromagnetic interference. Specifically,
the site selected should meet the following requirements:
The ambient temperature should be between -40°C to 75°C.
The relative humidity should be less than 95 percent, non-condensing.
Surrounding electrical devices should not exceed the electromagnetic field (RFC)
standards.
Make sure that the switch receives adequate ventilation. Do not block the ventilation
holes on any side of the switch.
2.2.4 POWER SUPPLY CONNECTIONS
The OSD2251E requires external power to the Redundant DC Terminal Block Power
Connector located at the top of the unit. Always ensure that the power is off before any
installation.
Redundant DC Terminal Block Power Inputs
There are two pairs of power inputs for use with redundant power sources. Only one power
input is required to be connected to run the switch.
Step 1: Connect the DC power to the appropriate power source, connect the plug-able
terminal block on the OSD2251E switch and then turn power on.
Step 2: Disconnect the power if you want to shut down the switch.

2.2.6 USB CONNECTOR
The OSD2251E has a USB –Type B connector located on the bottom of the unit that is used
for Command Line Interface (CLI) from the PC to the OSD2251E via the PC’s USB connector.
See section 2.4 for further CLI information.
FIGURE 7: USB TYPE B CLI PORT
To operate and control the OSD2251E using the CLI, a proprietary driver will be required to
be installed onto the PC being used. The driver can be found and downloaded via the
following site: www.silabs.com and searching for the CP210x driver. Download the relevant
driver for your operating system, install and follow the installation instructions from your PC.

2.2.10 FITTING SFP CONNECTORS
Care should be taken when inserting/removing the SFP connectors from SFP port 3 and 4 as
SFP modules are Electrostatic (ES) sensitive and Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) precautions
should be taken when installing. Ensure that the SFP is fully engaged and latched into
position.
Inserting SFP –Ensure that the SFP lever is in the locked position and insert into appropriate
SFP port. Gently push the SFP until it locks into place. Remove plastic/rubber dust cap and fit
fiber cable or RJ45 plug.
Removing SFP –Remove fiber connector or RJ45 plug. Pull the SFP lever down to unlock
SFP from housing. Using the lever, gently pull the SFP out.

2.3 OPERATION
When using the OSD2251E for the first time, check that the unit is in good condition with no
visible damage.
Upon power up check that the indicators illuminate accordingly on power up (see Table 4).
2.3.1 CONNECTIONS
For RJ45 connection use Category 5 (CAT5) or higher. Length should be no more than 100
meters.
For singlemode fiber connections, fiber used must be 9/125μm singlemode fiber.
For multimode fiber connections, fiber used must be 50/125μm or 62/125μm multimode fiber.
Plug in the appropriate connectors for system configuration;
–RJ45 cable to fixed copper ports (port 1 and 2) and copper SFP modules
–LC or SC fiber cable to fiber SFP modules.
Redundant Ring Operation
The OSD2251E connected in a redundant ring topology providing maximum reliability on
critical networks (up to 64 nodes per ring). In the event of device or fiber failure the data path
will automatically switch to a secondary path in less than 2ms per node to maintain ring
network integrity.
FIGURE 14: REDUNDANT RING CONFIGURATION

PAGE 19 10120301
OSD2251E Operator Manual
To connect the OSD2251E in a redundant ring configuration ports 3 and 4 must be used
together with fiber SFPs. The non-ring ports (ports 1 & 2) should be used to connect to your
Ethernet devices (eg. Cameras, PLCs, computers, etc.)
Figure 15 shows the connection method. Typically the SFP used would be a fiber SFP with
duplex LC connectors. The dashed line indicates the closed loop, but more OSD2251E units
can be connected to the ring as required using this topology. Ensure that the switch settings
for port 4 and 5 are set to 1000Mbps (1Gbps) –see Table 5.
FIGURE 15: REDUNDANT RING CONNECTION
Bus Operation
To connect the OSD2251E in a bus configuration ports 3 and 4 must be used together with
fiber SFPs. The remaining ports (ports 1 & 2) should be used to connect to your Ethernet
devices (eg. Cameras, PLCs, computers, etc.)
FIGURE 16: BUS CONNECTION
Connect more OSD2251D units as required using this
topology

PAGE 20 10120301
OSD2251E Operator Manual
2.4 COMMAND LINE INTERFACE
The Command Line Interface (CLI) is a useful tool for checking link status and debugging link
connections. To enable the use of CLI the OSD2251E must be connected to a PC with a
serial port and an appropriate cable as specified in section 2.2.6. Using a terminal emulation
program such as Hyperterminal, a number of command lines specific to the OSD2251E can
be implemented to check link/node status, ring/bus topology and enable/disable float backup.
2.4.1 TERMINAL EMULATION SETUP
Using a terminal emulation program such as hyperterminal the following parameters should
be set up for correct command line operation. Select the appropriate “COM port” set up for
the serial port.
