Overview

The ToughNet TN-4500A Series M12 managed Ethernet switches are

designed for industrial applications in harsh environments. The TN

series switches use M12 connectors to ensure tight, robust connections,

and guarantee reliable operation against environmental disturbances,

such as vibration and shock. The wide 24 to 110 VDC dual power inputs

increases the reliability of your communications.

The TN-4500A Series includes PoE, non-PoE, and fiber switches.

•TN-4516A non-PoE models: 12 Fast Ethernet M12 ports; 4 Gigabit

Ethernet ports.

•TN-4516A PoE models: 12 Fast Ethernet M12 ports with PoE

functionality; 4 Gigabit Ethernet ports with PoE functionality.

•TN-4516A fiber (ODC) models: 12 Fast Ethernet M12 ports with PoE

functionality; 2 Gigabit Ethernet ports with PoE functionality; 2

Gigabit Ethernet ports with a Q-ODC fiber connector.

•TN-4524A PoE models: 24 Fast Ethernet M12 ports, 16 with PoE

functionality.

•TN-4528A PoE models: 24 Fast Ethernet M12 ports, 16 with PoE

functionality; 4 Gigabit Ethernet ports with PoE functionality.

•TN-4528A fiber (ODC) models: 24 Fast Ethernet M12 ports, 16 with

PoE functionality; 2 Gigabit Ethernet ports with PoE functionality; 2

Gigabit Ethernet ports with a Q-ODC fiber connector.

The -40 to 75°C operating temperature and IP42-rated waterproof

enclosure allow deployment in harsh environments. The TN-4500A

Series Ethernet switches are compliant with mandatory sections of EN

50155, covering operating temperature, power input voltage, surge,

ESD, and vibration, as well as conformal coating and power insulation,

making the switches suitable for a variety of industrial applications.

Hardware Version Appearance

The appearance of different TN-4500A Series hardware versions may

not be similar. For example, the shape and positions of LEDs on the TN-

4516A hardware version 3.x are different from previous hardware

versions. Secondly, the trenches on the front side are removed for

hardware version 3.x. You can also refer to the device label to

differentiate different device hardware versions (Rev).

source (UL listed/IEC 60950

-1/IEC 62368-1), of which the

output

complies with ELV/ES2, LPS/PS2.

-4500A non-PoE models require an output rating of 24 to

110 VDC, 0.62A min., at an ambient temperature of 75°C min.

-4500A PoE models require an output rating of 24 to 110

VDC, 7 A min., at an ambient temperature of 75°C min.
