General Information
This manual will help you install and maintain these industrial Ethernet switches.
Installation of these switches is very easy and they will begin to operate as soon as they are
powered up. For the unmanaged models (denoted by ES in their part number) there are no
user settings so they are truly plug and play. The managed models (denoted by MS in their
part number) will act as unmanaged switches until they are configured otherwise. Refer to
the managed switch software manual for configuration of advanced network functionality.
Note: This manual only covers the installation and wiring of these switches. For
the managed models refer to the separate Software User Manuals for details on
configuring and using any of the management functions such as SNMP, RSTP,
IGMP, VLANs, security, port mirroring and much more.
Unlike an Ethernet hub that broadcasts all messages out all ports, these industrial Ethernet
switches will intelligently route Ethernet messages only out the appropriate port. The major
benefits of this are increased bandwidth and speed, reduction or elimination of message
collisions, and deterministic performance when tied with real-time systems.
These industrial Ethernet switches can support 10BaseT (10 Mbps), 100BaseT (100 Mbps)
and 1000BaseT (100 Mbps) on their RJ45 ports (depending on the model). Each of these
ports will independently auto-sense the speed/duplex, mdi/mdix-crossover and polarity
allowing you to use straight, crossed or even mis-wired cables. Some models also have
one or more fiber optic ports for making noise immune connections up to 120 km.
These general specifications apply to these industrial Ethernet switches. Refer to Section 7
for complete technical specifications.

LED Indicators
Overview
All these industrial Ethernet switches have 1 or 2 communication LEDs for each port and a
power LED. The managed models also have an “OK” output LED, a status LED and dual
power LEDs. Refer to the sample pictures below for the location of these LEDs.
Typical LED Location (varies with model)
Status LED
Managed Models Only: The Status LED indicates the overall health of the switch. It is
normally ON solid indicating that no internal CPU or software problems are detected. It will
flash when loading firmware and briefly on power up or reset. Otherwise, if it is OFF or
flashing for an extended period of time then a problem is detected. In this case, please
contact Red Lion for support.
Power LED
On unmanaged models there is typically one power LED that is ON if either power input (P1
or P2) has power applied to it. On the managed models (and some unmanaged models)
there are two Power LEDs that indicate if there is power applied to the respective input.
ACT / LNK
LED
This is the Yellow LED on models with two LEDs per RJ45 port.
ON (yellow)
(not flashing)
Indicates that there is a proper Ethernet connection (Link) between the
port and another Ethernet device, but no communications activity is
detected.
ON (yellow)
(flashing)
Indicates that there is a proper Ethernet connection (Link) between the
port and another Ethernet device, and that there is communications
activity.
OFF
Indicates that there is not a proper Ethernet connection (Link) between
the port and another Ethernet device. Make sure the cable has been
plugged securely into the ports at both ends.
Speed 10/100
LED
This is the Green LED on models with two LEDs per RJ45 port.
ON (green)
A 100 Mbps (100BaseT) connection is detected.
OFF
A 10 Mbps (10BaseT) connection is detected.
Slim Line Switch Hardware Manual Page 8 of 35
ACT / LNK /
Speed LED
This is a bi-color (green and yellow or orange) LED on models with one LED per RJ45
port.
ON Solid
(not flashing)
Indicates that there is a proper Ethernet connection (Link) between the
port and another Ethernet device, but no communications activity is
detected.
Flashing
Indicates that there is a proper Ethernet connection (Link) between the
port and another Ethernet device, and that there is communications
activity.
Green
On 10/100 ports, a 100 Mbps connection is detected.
On 10/100/1000 ports, a 1000 Mbps connection is detected.
Yellow or
Orange
On 10/100 ports, a 10 Mbps connection is detected.
ON 10/100/100 ports, a 10 or 1000 Mbps connection is detected.
OFF
Indicates that there is not a proper Ethernet connection (Link) between
the port and another Ethernet device. Make sure the cable has been
plugged securely into the ports at both ends.
PoE LED
ON
A valid Powered Device(PD) is detected and the switch is sourcing
power on this port.
OFF
No valid Powered Device(PD) is detected and no power is sourced.
Periodically
Blinks ON
No valid Powered Device (PD) is detected or the connected device is
drawing too little current (<10 mA) so no power is being sourced. Once
the connected device is loaded and draws more than 10 or 15 mA
then power will be sourced.
Error Code
Blink
If you see the same sequence of blinks repeatedly then contact Red
Lion for more information.
OK LED
Managed Models and Some Unmanaged Models: This LED indicates the status of the
power inputs. There is an output screw terminal that can be connected as shown in the
wiring diagram. The output voltage from the screw terminal marked ‘OK’ will be the same
as the applied switch input voltage. The output will be ON when both the PI and P2
terminals have power applied to them. It will be OFF if either input does not have power or
the switch software is not running.
From PLC
Input LED
5MS-MDM Models Only: This LED indicates status of the Discrete “From PLC” input on
the modem. There is an input screw terminal that can be connected as shown in the
diagram. When voltage is applied to the From PLC input the LED will be ON. When no
voltage is applied the LED will be OFF.
To PLC
Output LED
5MS-MDM Models Only: This LED can indicate Power Status or Modem Connection
status. There is an output screw terminal. That can be connected as shown in the wiring
diagram. . The output voltage from the screw terminal marked ‘OK’ will be the same as the
applied switch input voltage. In “OK output” mode the output will be ON when both P1 and
P2 terminals have power applied to them. It will be OFF if either input does not have power
or the switch software is not running. In “Carrier Detect” mode the output will be ON when
the CD LED is ON and will be OFF when the CD LED is OFF.
CD LED
5MS-MDM Models Only: The CD LED indicates when there is a carrier (successful
connection) established between the SL-5MS-MDM and another modem. When OFF the
connection is not established, and when ON the Carrier is established.
RD LED
5MS-MDM Models Only: The RD LED flashes when the SL-5MS-MDM is receiving data
from the phone line port. Flashing on this LED when the CD LED is OFF could indicate a
Ring coming in from a calling device. When the CD LED is ON and the RD LED is flashing
will indicate communication coming in from the remote device.
TD LED
5MS-MDM Models Only: The TD LED will flash on as the SL-5MS-MDM transmits data
out to the modem. The flashing of TD LED while the CD LED is ON will indicate
communications between the SL-5MS-MDM and device connected to the other modem.

The metal packaged models allow you to choose the mounting method that best fits your requirements. (Note:
Not all methods are available on all models. Refer to the mechanical diagrams for details.)
Vertical snap-on DIN rail
mounting for quickest
installation and optimal
utilization of your rail space.
Vertical screw-to-
panel mounting for
better shock and
vibration resistance.
Flat screw-to-panel mounting
for low profile orientation
in shallow boxes plus best
shock and vibration resistance.
Overview of Optional Mounting Methods
The Slim Lines switches with metal cases use an
innovative technique to remove excess heat from
the product and its components. This technique
effectively utilizes the heavy-gauge all-aluminum
case as a large heat-sink. Therefore, you may
notice the case becoming warm during operation
(especially with large loads such as all ports
linked and active). This is normal operation. For
best performance it is recommended that a DIN
rail spacer (such as an end clamp) be used
between the switch and adjacent devices. This
will leave an air gap for best heat dissipation off
the case. Also, do not block the air slots.
For best thermal performance when direct panel
mounting to a metal surface, you may use a
thermal compound or pad between the mounting
face and the mounting surface. This will reduce
any air gaps and optimize the transfer of heat
from the case to the mounting surface.

Thermal Performance:

Section 4
Power and Output Wiring
Overview
These industrial Ethernet switches can be powered from the same DC source that is used
to power your other devices. A voltage in the range of 10 to 30 VDC needs to be applied
between the P1 (plus) terminal and the Minus terminal as shown in the diagrams on the
next page. The chassis screw terminal should be tied to panel or chassis ground. To
reduce down time resulting from power loss, these industrial Ethernet switches can
optionally be powered redundantly with a second power supply as shown in the diagrams.
The managed models also have an “OK” output that can be tied to a PLC input or other
device to indicate when there is a power loss. When ON, this output will source the same
voltage that is applied to the switches power terminals. See the wiring diagrams on the next
page.
Models with PoE accepts power in the range of 12 to 48 VDC and can source 48 VDC
power to four PoE devices. For PoE sourcing (PSE) operation, the power must be in the
range of 45 to 50 VDC. Otherwise, the switch will function properly as an industrial Ethernet
switch but will not source any PoE power. For PoE operation, make sure your 48 VDC
supply is rated for at least 16 Watts per PoE channel being sourced, plus some overhead
for the switch. It is recommended that a supply with 75 Watts or more of power be used.
PoE switchs support dual power inputs allowing you to connect a backup power source.
The backup power should have the same voltage as the primary power.
The PoE ports when sourcing power will put out 48 VDC* (see note below) over the signal
pair of the RJ45 connection:
o V+ on RX lines 1 and 2
o V- on TX lines 3 and 6
o Lines 4, 5, 7 and 8 are unused
* Note: When the supply voltage is 45 to 47 VDC then the power output for the PoE will be
the same as the supply voltage. For example, if the supply voltage is 45 VDC then the PoE
output will also be 45 VDC. If the supply voltage is 48 to 50 VDC then the PoE output will be
regulated at 48 VDC.
Screw Torque
When tightening the screws be careful to tighten to a max. torque of 5 in/lb (0.57 Nm).
WIRING
WARNINGS
BEFORE PERFORMING ANY WIRING TO THESE SWITCHES MAKE SURE …
THE AREA IS CURRENTLY NONHAZARDOUS (ESPECIALLY WHEN
WORKING IN CLASS I, DIV 2 OR ZONE 2 HAZARDOUS LOCATIONS)
TO TURN OFF THE POWER TO THE SWITCH
TO UNPLUG THE SCREW TERMINAL BLOCK (This is especially important on
the units that have a metal case as shown below. Connecting or disconnecting
wires to the screw block when it is in place and the power is turned on can allow
the screwdriver to short the power to the case.)
Slim Line Switch Hardware Manual Page 22 of 35
UL Requirements
To meet the requirements for UL you must do one of the following:
1. Install a 3.33 Amp maximum fuse at the input of the switch.
OR
2. Use a Class 2 rated power supply to power the switch.
TO PREVENT
SHORTING THE

Communication Ports Wiring
Overview
These industrial Ethernet switches provide connections to standard Ethernet devices such
as PLCs, Ethernet I/O, industrial computers and much more. Three types of communication
ports may be found on these switches: RJ45 (copper) Ethernet ports, fiber optic Ethernet
ports and a serial or USB console port for management (managed models).
RJ45
Ethernet
Wiring
Use data-quality (not voice-quality) twisted pair cable rated category 5 (or better) with
standard RJ45 connectors. For best performance use shielded cable. Straight through or
crossover RJ45 cable can be used regardless of the device the switch is to be connected to
as all the ports are capable of auto-mdi/mdix-crossover detection.
The RJ45 Ethernet port connector bodies on these products are metallic and are connected
to the Chassis GND terminal. Therefore, shielded cables may be used to provide further
protection. To prevent ground loops, the cable shield should be tied to the metal connector
body at one end of the cable only. Electrical isolation is also provided on the Ethernet ports
for increased reliability.

The maximum cable length for 10/100/1000BaseT is typically 100 meters (328 ft.).
Ethernet
Fiber Wiring
Guidelines
Depending on the model these industrial Ethernet switches may have up to four fiber optic
ports. All 100 Mbps fiber ports are available with dual SC or ST style connectors. They are
also available with multimode, singlemode, long-haul (for connections up to 120+ km) or
special-application transceivers. Refer to the technical specifications for details.
All 1000 Mbps fiber ports are provided as mini-gbic SFP (small form pluggable). These
accept plug in fiber transceivers that typically have an LC style connector. They are
available with multimode, singlemode, long-haul (for connections up to 80+ km) or special-
application transceivers. Refer to the technical specifications for details.
For each fiber port there is a transmit (TX) and receive (RX) signal. When making your
fiber optic connections, make sure that the transmit (TX) port of the switch connects to the
receive (RX) port of the other device, and the receive (RX) port of the switch connects to
the transmit (TX) port of the other device.
Use standard fiber optic wiring techniques (not covered by this manual) to make your
connections. The corresponding ACT/LNK LED will be ON solid or flashing when you have
made a proper connection.
For more fiber optic guidelines go to: www.redlion.net
See images below for typical fiber optic port placement on these switches.

Verifying
Connectivity
After all Ethernet and/or fiber connections are made, check the LED’s corresponding to the
ports that each of the devices are connected to. Ensure that for each port that is in use, the
LED is on or blinking. If a port LED is off, go back and check for connectivity problems
between that port and the network device connected to that particular port. In addition, the
color of the LED should indicate the speed for which your device is connected at (see prior
section on LEDs).
Telephone
Port Wiring
(MDM models)
A standard cross-wired telephone patch cable should be used to connect to the phone line
provided by the phone company. Tip and Ring are the only two pins used on the Ethernet
Land-Line modem.

Slim Line Switch Hardware Manual Page 30 of 35
Serial
Console Port
Wiring
An optional way to configure the switch is through the RJ45 console RS232 port. Use a
DB9F to RJ45F adapter along with a RJ45 male to RJ45 male straight-thru-wired patch
cable to make a connection between a com port on your PC (DB9 male) and the RS232
port of the Managed Switch (RJ45 female). Contact Red Lion or your switch vendor to
purchase this adapter as an accessory.
A typical DB9F to RJ45F adapter should be wired as follows:

Port Wiring
Newer models of these switches may also have an USB port instead of or in addition to the
RS232 port. Use a standard USB cable with a mini-USB plug on one end and an A-type-
USB plug on the other end. The A-type plug goes into a standard USB port on a computer.
The mini-USB plug goes into the USB port on the switch.
Refer to the software user manual for how to use this USB port.
