connectors over coaxial cable.
One Hardened Ethernet Extender is configured as local unit located at
local site of Ethernet extension by setting mode switch at top panel of thisHardened Ethernet Extender to Loc (local mode).
The other Hardened Ethernet Extender is configured as remote unit
located at remote site of Ethernet extension by setting mode switch at top
panel of this Hardened Ethernet Extender to Rmt (remote mode).

Assembly, Startup, and Dismantling•••

Assembly: Place the Hardened Ethernet Extender on the DIN rail fromabove using the slot. Push the front of the Hardened Ethernet Extender
toward the mounting surface until it audibly snaps into place.
Startup: Connect the supply voltage to start up the Hardened Ethernet
Extender via the terminal block (or DC JACK).
Dismantling: Pull out the lower edge and then remove the Hardened
Ethernet Extender from the DIN rail.

This chapter gives step-by-step installation instructions for the Hardened
Ethernet Extender.

Selecting a Site for the Equipment
As with any electric device, you should place the equipment where it will not
be subjected to extreme temperatures, humidity, or electromagnetic
interference. Specifically, the site you select should meet the following
requirements:
••
•
•
•

The Surrounding Air temperature should be between -40 to 60 degrees Celsius.
The relative humidity should be less than 95 percent, non-condensing.
Surrounding electrical devices should not exceed the electromagnetic field (RFC)
standards.
Make sure that the equipment receives adequate ventilation. Do not block theventilation holes of the equipment.
The power outlet should be within 1.8 meters of the product.

DIN Rail Mounting•••

Fix the DIN rail attachment plate to the back panel of the HardenedEthernet Extender.
Installation: Place the Hardened Ethernet Extender on the DIN rail fromabove using the slot. Push the front of the Hardened Ethernet Extender
toward the mounting surface until it audibly snaps into place.
Removal: Pull out the lower edge and then remove the Hardened
Ethernet Extender from the DIN rail.

Step 1: Connect the supplied AC to DC power adapter to the receptacle on the topsideof the Hardened Ethernet Extender.
Step 2: Connect the power cord to the AC to DC power adapter and attach the plug intoa standard AC outlet with the appropriate AC voltage.

Redundant DC Terminal Block Power Inputs
There are two pairs of power inputs can be used to power up this device. You
only need to have one power input connected to run the Hardened EthernetExtender.
Step 1: Connect the DC power cord to the plug-able terminal block on the Hardened
Ethernet Extender, and then plug it into a standard DC outlet.
Step 2: Disconnect the power cord if you want to shut down the Hardened Ethernet
Extender.
