8. Wiring the Power Input
The switch supports a single power supply input which is located on the 3-pin terminal
block. Refer to illustration below for correct wiring.

9. Communication Connections
Switch IE-SW-EL08-6TX-2SC is equipped with following communication interfaces:
6x 10/100Base-T(X) ports
2x 100BaseFX port with SC Connector (Multi-mode)
Switch IE-SW-EL08-6TX-2SCS is equipped with following communication interfaces:
6x 10/100Base-T(X) ports
2x 100BaseFX port with SC Connector (Single-mode)
Please only use cables suitable for the respective type of communication and ensure that
signals are protected from possible interference.
9.1 10/100Base T(X) RJ45 Ports
The 10/100BaseT(X) ports located on Ethernet Switch’s front panel are used to connect to
Ethernet-enabled devices. Below we show pinouts for both MDI (NIC-type) ports and MDI-
X (HUB/Switch-type) ports. Auto MDI-X ensures that both wiring-schemes are supported.
(Automatic crossover function)
Each RJ45 Ethernet port independently supports auto-negotiation for recognizing the
transmission speed 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps according to the IEEE802.3 standard. This
means that some of connected Ethernet devices could operate at 10 Mbps, while at the
same time other nodes are operating at 100 Mbps.

3 Rx+ 3 Tx+
6 Rx- 6 Tx-
Note about possible loss of data packages in case of “Duplex mismatching”
If the switch’s auto-negotiation port is connected to a non-
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
mode as required by the IEEE 802.3u standard in such cases.
For correct transmission, the non-negotiating port must be set to half-
mode (speed can be either 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps, it always will be recognized
automatically by an Auto-Negotiation-Device).
9.2 100Base-FX Fiber Ports
The switch is equipped with 2 * 100BaseFX Fiber ports with SC connectors. For connecting
fiber ports between 2 devices consider to connect wire Tx (transmit) of device 1 to wire Rx
(receive) of device 2, and vice versa. Remember that fiber optic connections generally are
using the full-duplex transmission mode.
