300 Series Industrial Ethernet Switches

The 300 Series Unmanaged Industrial Ethernet Switches support high speed layer 2 switching between ports. All N-TRON 300

Series switches are housed in a ruggedized steel enclosure, and provide Category-5 compliant 10/100-BaseT connections for high

performance network design, and hub/repeater upgrades.

The 302MC/MCE is a 2 port unmanaged media converter that converts 10/100BaseTX copper to 100BaseFX full duplex fiber.

The 304TX, 306TX, and 308TX are affordable and share a small footprint. Each switch is capable of auto negotiating 10/100 Mb

and half/full duplex communications.

The 305FX and 306FX2 switches are unmanaged and have 4 ports similar to the 304TX, plus an additional multimode fiber optic

up-link port(s), capable of 2 Kilometers of 100 Mb communications without the use of repeaters.

The 305FXE and 306FXE2 switches are unmanaged and similar to the 305FX and 306FX2, respectively. However, these models

use singlemode transceivers with extended range capability. The N-TRON FXE products utilize singlemode fiber transceiver(s)

that are capable of 15, 40, and up to 80 Kilometers of 100 Mb full duplex communications.

All fiber products utilize the IEEE compliant SC or ST duplex connectors for fiber optic communications. All 10/100Base-TX

ports utilize the RJ45 shielded connectors.

Key Features

•Full IEEE 802.3 & 100Base-FX Compliance

•Extended Environmental Specifications

•Support for Full/Half Duplex Operation

•LED Link/Activity Status Indication

•Autonegotiation, Autosensing Speed, Duplex, and Flow Control

•Up to 1.0 Gb/s Maximum Throughput

•Industry Standard 35mm DIN-Rail Mounted Enclosure

PACKAGE CONTENTS

Please make sure the Ethernet Switch package contains the following items:

1. 300 Series Unit

2. N-Tron Product CD

Contact your carrier if any items are damaged.

INSTALLATION

Read the following warning before beginning the installation:

WARNING

FXE units contain a class 1 laser. Do not stare into the laser beam (fiber optic connector) when installing or operating the

product.

Never install or work on electrical equipment or cabling during periods of lightning activity.

Disconnect the power cable before removing the enclosure top.

Do not operate the unit with the top cover removed

UNPACKING

Remove all the equipment from the packaging, and store the packaging in a safe place. File any damage claims with the carrier.

12/29/2005

DIN-Rail Mounting

Install the unit in a standard DIN-Rail. Recess the unit to allow at least 5” of horizontal clearance for fiber optic cable bend radius

(2” for TX models).

To install the unit to 35mm industrial DIN-Rail, place

the top edge of the included mounting bracket on the back

of the unit against the DIN-Rail at a 15° angle as shown.

Rotate the bottom of the unit to the back (away from you)

until it snaps into place.

To remove the unit from the 35mm industrial DIN-Rail,

place a flat head screwdriver into the orange release clip

found at the bottom of the unit, and apply downward force

on the clip until it disengages from the bottom of the unit

from the DIN-Rail. Rotate the bottom of the unit towards

you and up at an approximate 15° upward angle to

completely remove the unit.

300-PM 900-PM

900-RM

With the exception of the 524TX and

526FX2, all N-Tron™ products are designed

to be mounted on industry standard 35mm

DIN-Rail. However, DIN-Rail mounting may

not be suitable for all applications. We offer

three alternative mounting solutions: Our 300

Panel Mount Assembly (P/N: 300-PM) may

be used to mount a single 300 Series unit to a

panel or other flat surface. Our 900 Panel

Mount Assembly (P/N: 900-PM) may be

used to securely mount our 100, 200, 300,

400, 500, or 900 Series products to a panel or

other flat surface; Our Rack Mount Assembly

(P/N: 900-RM) may be used to mount our

products to standard 19" racks.

APPLYING POWER (Top View)

Unscrew & Remove the DC Voltage Input Plug from the top header.

Install the DC Power Cables into the Plug (observing polarity on unit).

Plug the Voltage Input Plug back into the top header.

All LED’s will flash ON Momentarily

Verify the Power LED stays ON (GREEN).

Note: Either V1 or V2 can be connected to power for minimal operation. For redundant power operation, V

and V

plugs

must be connected to separate DC Voltage sources. Use wire sizes of 16-28 gauge. The power cord should be limited to less

than 10 meters in order to ensure optimum performance.

Recommended 24V DC Power Supplies, similar to

100VAC/240VAC:

N-Tron’s NTPS-24-1.3, DC 24V/1.3A,

Operating temp range -10°C to +60°C

CONNECTING THE UNIT

For 300 Series fiber units, remove the dust cap from the fiber optic connectors and connect the fiber optic cables. For Fiber

Optic ports, the TX port on the near station should be connected to the RX port of the far end station, and the RX port should

be connected to the TX port of the far end station.

For 10Base-T ports, plug a Category 3 (or greater) twisted pair cable into the RJ45 connector. For 100Base-T ports, plug a

Category 5 (or greater) twisted pair cable into the RJ45 connector. Connect the other end to the far end station. Verify that

the LNK LED’s are ON once the connection has been completed. To connect any other port to another Switch or Repeater,

use a standard Cat5 straight through or crossover cable.
