ATTENTION: Switch models NGI-U05, NGI-U08 and
NGI-U16 are open-type devices and shall be DIN-
rail mounted. Model NGI-U05 may be wall mounted
(optional) in cabinet or enclosure. The ambient
temperature should not exceed 167°F (75°C).
Mounting the Switch
Place the NGI-Series switch on the DIN rail from above using the
slot. Push the front of the switch toward the mounting surface
until it snaps into place with the sound of a click.
Dismounting the Switch
Press the switch from the top, then pull out the lower edge of
the switch to remove it from the DIN rail.

WARNING: Safety measures should be taken before connecting
the power cable. Turn off the power before connecting modules
or wires. The correct power supply voltage is listed on the product
label. Check the voltage of your power source to make sure you
are using the correct voltage. DO NOT use a voltage greater than
what is specified on the product label. Calculate the maximum
possible current in each power wire and common wire. Observe
all electrical codes dictating the maximum current allowable for
each wire size. If current exceeds the maximum rating, the wiring
can overheat, causing serious damage to your equipment.
Please read and follow these guidelines:
• 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
through 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. Wiring that
shares similar electrical characteristics can be bundled together.
• You should separate input wiring from output wiring.
• Be advised that you should label the wiring to all devices in
the system.

To insert power wire and connect the 9~48VDC at a maximum of
0.5A DC power to the power terminal block, follow these steps:
• Use a flat-head screwdriver to loosen the wire-clamp screws.
• Insert the negative/positive DC wires into the ( - / + )
terminals, respectively.
• Tighten the wire-clamp screws to prevent the wires from
loosening.
ATTENTION: Use a power supply from 9~48VDC.
The device power shall be supplied
by LPS (Limited Power Source) circuit.
NGI-U08 with 6-Pin Terminal Block
Use “PWR” for the primary power input and “RPS” for the
redundant power input.

CAUTION:
• Use copper conductors only.
• Wiring cable temperature should support at least 220°F (105°C).
• Tighten the wire to a torque value of 5 lb.-in.
• The wire gauge for the terminal block should range between
12 and 24 AWG.
To insert power wire and connect the 9~VDC at a maximum of
1A DC power to the NGI-U08 power terminal block, follow these
steps:
• Use a flat-head screwdriver to loosen the wire-clamp screws.
• Insert the negative/positive DC wires into the PWR-/PWR+
terminals, respectively.
• Tighten the wire-clamp screws to prevent the wires from
loosening
ATTENTION: Use a power supply from 9~57VDC for
NGI-U08. The device power shall be supplied
by LPS (Limited Power Source) circuit.

Wiring Requirements
Wiring the Relay Contact (ALM) –
only for device with 6-pin terminal block
The NGI-U08 (device with 6-pin terminal block) has one set of
relay alarm output. This relay contact uses two contacts of the
terminal block on the NGI-U08 top panel.
The two contacts of the 6-pin terminal block connector are used
to detect user-configured events. The two wires attached to the
fault contacts form an open circuit when a user-configured event
is triggered. If a user-configured event does not occur, the fault
circuit remains closed.

DIP Switch Settings
The switch supports an “Alarm Relay Output” function. You
can connect an alarm light or a buzzer. When events occur that
enabled by the DIPs, the switch will operate the relay ON to
enable the alarm light or a buzzer. The load can be an “alarm
light” a “buzzer” or other equipment.
User configurable switches:
• PWR or RPS “DIP ON”: when there is a power loss, the switch
will operate the “Relay ON.” If connecting only to single power
and a power loss occurs, the switch system will shut down and
will not operate the “Relay ON.”
• Port 1~ Port X “DIP ON”: when the port “Link is down,” the
switch will operate the “Relay ON.” It can help to inform the
link-down events that happened.
• It is not required to connect alarm equipment to the Alarm
Relay output port. The switch has an ALARM LED indicator on
the front panel.
• Default settings for the DIP switch are set to OFF positions.

Grounding the NGI Series Switch Models
Grounding and wire routing help limit the effects of noise due to
electromagnetic interference (EMI). Run the ground connection
from the ground screw to the grounding surface prior to
connecting devices.
ATTENTION: This product is intended to be
mounted to a well-grounded mounting surface,
such as a metal panel.
Cabling
Connect one end of an Ethernet/RJ45 cable into the Ethernet
port of the NGI-U05, NGI-U08 or NGI-U16. Connect the other
end to a network device. Ports 1 through 5, 8 or 16 on the
switch support Fast Ethernet, as well as Gigabit Ethernet
(10/100/1000Base-T ports).
All the RJ45 ports on the NGI-U05 and NGI-U08 support auto-
negotiation and Auto MDI/MDI-X to eliminate the need for
crossover cabling.
Note: Category 5e or above cable should be used.
