Overview
The BasicLine Gigabit Ethernet Switches are equipped with 5 Gigabit
Ethernet ports (4x 10/100/1000BaseT(X) ports and 1x combo
10/100/1000BaseT(X) or 100/1000BaseSFP port), making them ideal,
economical solutions for demanding, high bandwidth Gigabit Ethernet
applications. In addition, the built-in relay warning function alerts system
administrators when power failures or port breaks occur, and the add-on
4-pin DIP switches can be used to configure broadcast storm protection,
jumbo frame rate, IEEE 802.3az energy saving, and 100/1000 SFP
speed switching. The two available models differ in terms of operating
temperature range. One model is for use at an operating temperature
range of -10 to 60°C and the other one for an extended operating
temperature range of -40 to 75°C. Both models have passed a 100%
burn-in test to ensure that they fulfill the special needs of industrial
automation control. The switches can be easily installed on a DIN rail or
in distribution boxes.

Mounting Dimensions (unit = mm)

- 5 -
DIN-Rail Mounting
The aluminum DIN-rail attachment plate should already be fixed to the
back panel of the Ethernet Switch when you take it out of the box. If you
need to reattach the DIN-rail attachment plate, make sure the stiff metal
spring is situated towards the top, as shown in the figures below.
STEP 1:
Insert the top of the DIN-rail into the
slot just below the stiff metal spring.
STEP 2:
The DIN-rail attachment unit will
snap into place as shown below.
To remove the Ethernet Switch from the DIN-rail, simply reverse Steps 1
and 2.
Wall Mounting (optional)
For some applications, you will find it convenient to mount the switch on
the wall, as illustrated below.
STEP 1:
Remove the aluminum DIN
rail attachment plate from
the switch’s rear panel, and
then attach the wall mount
plates, as shown in the
figure.
STEP 2:
Mounting the switch on the wall requires 4 screws.
Use the switch, with wall mount plates attached, as a
guide to mark the correct locations of the 4 screws.
The heads of the screws should be less than 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.
NOTE
Before tightening the screws into the wall, make sure the screw
head and shank size are suitable by inserting the screw into one
of the keyhole-shaped apertures of the wall mounting plates.
Do not screw the screws in all the way—leave about 2 mm to allow room
for sliding the wall mount panel between the wall and the screws.

- 6 -
STEP 3:
Once the screws are fixed in
the wall, insert the four screw
heads through the large parts
of the keyhole-shaped
apertures, and then slide the
switch downwards, as
indicated. Tighten the four
screws for added stability.

Wiring Requirements
WARNING
Safety First!
Turn the power off before disconnecting modules or wires.
The proper 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.
These devices must be supplied by an SELV source as
defined in the Low Voltage Directive 2014/35/EU and
2014/30/EU.

- 7 -
WARNING
Safety First!
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 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 separated.
It is strongly advised that you label wiring for all devices in the system
when necessary.
Grounding Ethernet Switch
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.
Wiring the Alarm Contact
The Alarm Contact consists of the two middle contacts of the terminal
block on the Ethernet Switch top panel. You may refer to the next
section for detailed instructions on how to connect the wires to the
terminal block connector, and how to attach the terminal block connector
to the terminal block receptor. In this section, we explain the meaning of
the two contacts used to connect the Alarm Contact.

FAULT: The two middle contacts of the
6-contact terminal block connector are
used to detect both power faults and port
faults. The two wires attached to the Fault
contacts form an open circuit when:
1. Ethernet Switch has lost power from
one of the DC power inputs.
OR
2. The PORT ALARM DIP switch for one
of the ports is set to ON, but the port is
not connected properly.
If neither of these two conditions is
satisfied, the Fault circuit will be closed.
Wiring the Redundant Power Inputs
The top two contacts and the bottom two contacts of the 6-contact
terminal block connector on the Ethernet Switch top panel are used for
the Ethernet Switch DC inputs. Top and front views of one of the
terminal block connectors are shown here.
STEP 1: Insert the negative/positive
DC wires into the V-/V+ terminals.
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 plastic terminal
block connector prongs into the
terminal block receptor, which is
located on switch´s top panel.
ATTENTION
Before connecting the Ethernet Switch to the DC power
inputs, make sure the DC power source voltage is stable.

Communication Connections
IE-SW-BL05(T)-4GT-1GS switches have 2 types of communication port:
•4 x 10/100/1000BaseT(X) Ethernet ports
•1 x Combo-port, usable as 10/100/1000T(X) or 100/1000BaseSFP
port
10/100/1000BaseT(X) Ethernet Port Connection
The 10/100/1000BaseT(X) ports located on switch’s front panel are used
to connect to Ethernet-enabled devices. Most users will choose to
configure these ports 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.
In what follows, we give pinouts for both MDI (NIC-type) ports and
MDI-X (HUB/Switch-type) ports. We also give cable wiring diagrams for
straight-through and cross-over Ethernet cables.

RJ45 (8-pin) to RJ45 (8-pin) Straight-Through Cable Wiring
RJ45 (8-pin) to RJ45 (8-pin) Cross-Over Cable Wiring
100/1000BaseSFP (mini-GBIC) Fiber Port
One of the Gigabit Ethernet ports on the IE-SW-BL05(T)-4GT-1GS is a
SFP slot, which requires 100M or 1G mini-GBIC fiber transceivers to
work properly. Weidmüller offers several SFP-transceiver models for
various distance requirements.
The concept behind the LC port and cable is straightforward. Suppose
you are connecting devices I and II. Unlike electrical signals, optical
signals do not require a circuit in order to transmit data. Consequently,
one of the optical lines is used to transmit data from device I to device II,
and the other optical line is used to transmit data from device II to device
I, for full-duplex transmission.
Remember to connect the Tx (transmit) port of device I to the Rx
(receive) port of device II, and the Rx (receive) port of device I to the Tx
(transmit) port of device II. If you make your own cable, we suggest
labeling the two sides of the same line with the same letter (A-to-A and
B-to-B, as shown below, or A1-to-A2 and B1-to-B2).

ATTENTION
This is a Class 1 Laser/LED product. To avoid causing serious
damage to your eyes, do not stare directly into the laser beam.
Redundant Power Inputs
Both power inputs can be connected simultaneously to live DC power
sources. If one power source fails, the other live source acts as a backup,
and automatically supplies all of the switch´s power needs.
Alarm Contact
The Ethernet switch has one Alarm Contact located on the top panel.
For detailed instructions on how to connect the Alarm Contact power
wires to the two middle contacts of the 6-contact terminal block
connector, see the Wiring the Alarm Contact section on page 7. A
typical scenario would be to connect the Fault circuit to a warning light
located in the control room. The light can be set up to switch on when a
fault is detected.
The Alarm Contact has two terminals that form a Fault circuit for
connecting to an alarm system. The two wires attached to the Fault
contacts form an open circuit when (1) the switch has lost power from
one of the DC power inputs, or (2) one of the ports, for which the
corresponding PORT ALARM DIP switch is set to ON, is not properly
connected.
If neither of these two conditions occurs, the Fault circuit will be closed.
DIP Switch Settings
The default setting for each DIP switch is OFF.
The following table explains the effect of setting
the DIP switches to the ON positions.

Auto MDI/MDI-X Connection
The Auto MDI/MDI-X function allows users to connect the Ethernet
Switch 10/100/1000BaseT(X) ports to any kind of Ethernet device,
without paying attention to the type of Ethernet cable being used for the
connection. This means that you can use either a straight-through cable
or cross-over cable to connect the Ethernet Switch to Ethernet devices.
Triple Speed Functionality and
Switching
The switch´s 10/100/1000 Mbps RJ45 ports auto negotiates with the
connected device for the fastest data transmission rate supported by
both devices. The Ethernet Switch is a plug-and-play device, so
software configuration is not required at installation or during
maintenance.
The half/full duplex mode for the RJ45 ports is user dependent and
changes (by auto-negotiation) to full or half duplex, depending on which
transmission speed is supported by the attached device.
Auto-Negotiation and Speed Sensing
The switch´s RJ45 ports independently support auto-negotiation for
transmission speeds of 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, and 1000 Mbps, with
operation according to the IEEE802.3 standard.
This means that some nodes could be operating at 10 Mbps, while at the
same time, other nodes are operating at 100 Mbps or 1000Mbps.
Auto-negotiation takes place when an RJ45 cable connection is made,
and then each time a LINK is enabled. The switch advertises its
capability for using 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, or 1000 Mbps transmission
speeds, with the device at the other end of the cable expected to
advertise similarly. Depending on what type of device is connected, this
will result in agreement to operate at a speed of 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, or
1000 Mbps.
Note about possible lost of data packages in case of “Duplex
mismatching”
If the switch´s RJ45 port is connected to a non-negotiating device, then
the switch will set its port transmission speed same as the connected
device but is unable to correctly detect the duplex mode. As result the
port is set to the correct speed but is using always the half duplex mode
as required by the IEEE 802.3u standard in such cases. For correct
transmission the non-negotiating port has to be set to half-duplex mode
(speed either 10 or 100 or 1000 Mbit/s).
