Chapter 1 Introduction
Functional Description
The DuraNET10-10 is an IP67-protected rugged unmanaged Ethernet switch designed to provide local area network (LAN)
connectivity to IP-enabled equipment, such as onboard computers, cameras, sensors, monitoring devices, and command-
and-control gear for situation awareness and information sharing in harsh temperature and vibration environments,
including tactical, mobile, vehicle, or outdoor applications.
Featuring a robust mechanical design and extended temperature operation from -40ºC to +85ºC (-40ºF to +185ºF), the
DuraNET 10-10 network switch provides five 10/100 plug-and-play Ethernet ports over rugged field deployable RJ-45 or
M12 connectors in a sealed and fanless metal chassis designed for mounting to any machine or flat surface. With provisions
for exposure to wide thermal ranges, shock, vibration, dust particles, and liquid immersion, the rugged DuraNET 10-10
combines proven and open-architecture PC104 Ethernet switch and vehicle-grade power supply components in a rugged
package designed for maximum reliability under extreme conditions, including provisions for hazardous locations and
potentially explosive atmospheres.
Featuring five IEEE 802.3/u complaint (10/100mpbs) Ethernet transceiver ports and support for auto-MDI-MDIX network
installation, the robust unit requires no configuration. Any of its five transceiver ports are flexibly designed to serve as an
uplink. Support for auto-crossover, auto-polarity, auto-negotiation, and bridge loop prevention are all integrated. A non-
blocking switching fabric provides excellent data transmission performance at wire speed.

Chapter 2 Quick Start-up
This section describes the installation of the DuraNET 10-10. It then describes the power-up of the assembly.
The DuraNET 10-10 is factory configured to provide five auto detecting IEEE 802.3/u complaint (10/100mpbs) Ethernet
ports. The standard configuration also includes support for auto-crossover, auto-polarity, auto-negotiation, and bridge loop
prevention. The DuraNET 10-10 provides much the same functionality as you would expect in a high quality off-the-shelf
retail switch but in a rugged, ultra-reliable package designed for outdoor, mobile and extreme environments. The following
sections of this chapter assumes the utilization of either the starter cable set or a custom set of cables made specifically for
the intended target system, vehicle, or craft.
Installation
Test the DuraNET 10-10 and cabling or interfaces prior to installation to ensure full operational capability. Full bench-top
testing prior to installing the assembly in the target system can be performed by purchasing the starter cable set available for
this unit.
Installation is made simple with this unit. Please refer to the section in this manual labeled “Mechanical” for a schematic
detailing the mounting dimensions for this assembly and instructions for mounting the device. While the DuraNET 10-10
has been designed with abusive environments in mind, care must be taken in the physical mounting of this device to ensure
a solid connection between the intended target system and this unit is made.
Power-up
Perform the steps in this section to install the hardware and power up the device.
Step 1 Make sure all of the devices you will connect to this unit are powered off.
Step 2 Connect one of either the starter cable set or a custom Ethernet cable to one of the
numbered Ethernet ports (J1 – J5) on the switch. Connect the other end to a computer or
other network device.
Step 3 Repeat step 2 to connect additional devices.
Step 4 Connect the appropriate DC power to J6 on the unit and apply power.
Each of the ports can be tested through the use of a simple ping test between two Ethernet capable devices connected to the
DuraNET 10-10 to ensure connectivity.
Starter Cable Set
The following cable set is available for purchase through the sales department and is meant to be for lab or bench testing
purposes only.

Chapter 5 Troubleshooting
FAQ
If you are having problems with this unit, please keep in mind that most encountered issues are cleared up by either
ensuring that the unit is being supplied power through an adequate DC power supply or by checking the cable connections
and connectors that have been attached to the unit externally.
Other simple fixes may also include ensuring that the power cables themselves are of a sufficient gauge to adequately
supply current to the unit.
Parvus is unable to test the DuraNET 10-10 against all known Ethernet device chipsets, and as such can not guarantee 100%
compatibility with all devices. If you are having difficulty communicating through one of the DuraNET 10-10 ports to an
external Ethernet device, please ensure that the external device has a working network interface by testing it with another
Ethernet communication device.
If you find that the external device’s Ethernet interface is in fact working and is merely having difficulty communicating
through one of the DuraNET 10-10 ports, the following advice is given:
The plug-and-play nature of the DuraNET 10-10 with regard to auto-negotiation can sometimes in rare instances conflict
with other such devices. Particularly other Marvell based chipsets. If this is the case, please ensure to test other Ethernet
capable devices with the DuraNET 10-10 to verify that it is working.
Also, the auto-polarity and auto-crossover capabilities of the unit can sometimes in rare instances have incompatibilities
with other such plug-and-play devices and chipsets. If this is experienced, remaking the Ethernet cabling by reversing the
polarity and crossover pins may help. This should be tried only after all other troubleshooting avenues have been explored.
If none of the above advice helps rectify the problem you are experiencing and or you feel you have a faulty unit please
contact a member of our technical support team.

Appendix A – Glossary of Terms
10BaseT
10 Mbps Ethernet system based on Manchester signal encoding transmitted over Category 3 or better twisted-pair cable.
100BaseTX
100-Mbps Fast Ethernet specification using Category 5 UTP wiring. Based on the IEEE 802.3u standard.
autonegotiation
A protocol through which two connected devices can communicate common capabilities, for example, speed and duplex
mode, to each other. Once common capabilities are communicated, the highest common capabilities for both devices, for
example, 100 Mbps and full-duplex mode, are chosen as the operating modes.
collision
When two devices on an Ethernet network transmit data at the same time, the data packets from each device collide and are
damaged when they meet on the network.
crossover Ethernet cable
A cable that connects two similar devices, for example, two data terminal equipment (DTE) or data communications
equipment (DCE) devices. An example is connecting the switch to another Cisco 1548 Micro Switch 10/100.
Fast Ethernet
Any of a number of 100-Mbps Ethernet specifications. Fast Ethernet offers a speed ten times that of the 10BaseT Ethernet
specification. Existing 10BaseT applications and network management tools can run on Fast Ethernet networks. Based on
an extension to the IEEE 802.3 specification.
full-duplex mode
Capability for simultaneous data transmission between a sending station and a receiving station.
half-duplex mode
Capability for data transmission in only one direction at a time between a sending station and a receiving station.
latency
The time taken by a bridge, router, or switch to transmit a frame onto its output port after the frame has been received into
the input buffer.
router
A device that connects two or more LANs at the network layer of the OSI model.
Like bridges, routers operate in store-and-forward mode, buffering each packet into memory before determining the
destination of the frame. A router also amends the header on each frame once it buffered the frame into memory, to reflect
the routing decision that was made.
segment
Section of a network that is bounded by bridges, routers, or switches.
straight-through Ethernet cable
A cable that wires a pin to its equivalent pin. A straight-through Ethernet cable is the most common cable used. An example
specific to the switch is connecting one of these switches to an end station, such as a PC.
switching

DuraNET 10-10 User Manual
Page 20 of 22 MNL-0603-01 rev A1 REF. ECO-TBA Effective: 14 Dec 2011
Like bridging, switching provides a connection between LAN segments. However, a cut-through switch forwards packets
on direct connections between the input and output ports, without buffering them into memory.
throughput
Rate of information arriving at, and possibly passing through, a particular point in a network system.
UTP
Unshielded twisted-pair. A wire medium used in a variety of networks. UTP cabling standards are Categories 1 through 5.
