SHEET 8-Port Skorpion Gigabit Switch — Now with PoE! Cost Effective, High-speed — Compact Size The EISK8P-GT Skorpion Gigabit Switch is an 8-port unmanaged Ethernet switch with Gigabit Ethernet (GigE) performance on all ports and Power-Over-Ethernet (PoE) on four ports. GigE jumbo frames up to 9216 bytes are supported for maximum system performance. For 10/100 Mbps legacy devices, its port speed automatically slows — accommodating any Ethernet automation system. This low-cost compact unit has a rugged metal enclosure and is intended for DIN-rail mounting in control panels. Ports 5 – 8 PoE provide data and power over one Cat5e cable. The unit acts as power sourcing equipment (PSE) — supplying up to 15.4 W per port for IEEE 802.3af-compliant powered devices (PD). PoE eliminates the need for additional power supplies for Ethernet-enabled devices placed in challenging locations — such as wireless access points or IP cameras mounted out of reach or outdoors. PDs can be located up to 100 metres from the switch. This plug-and-play switch requires no configuration. All ports automatically configure data rate and duplex using the Auto-negotiation protocol. Depending on the capability of the link partner, communication is set at 10, 100 or 1000 Mbps at either half- or full-duplex. All ports accommodate either crossover or straight-through cable via the Auto-MDIX protocol. The unit is powered from 48 VDC. LED indicators assist in troubleshooting network issues. • Plug-and-Play operation • DIN-rail mounting • 4 PoE ports deliver up to 15.4 W each • Rugged metal enclosure • Diagnostic LEDs • Auto-negotiation of speed and duplex • CE Mark compliant, RoHS compliant • Auto-MDIX supports crossover cables • LEDs for link/activity, data rate, power, and PoE status

Overview The Skorpion Gigabit Switch is intended for control panel installations where DIN-rail space is at a premium by requiring a width of only 41 mm of rail space. A metal DIN-rail clip attached to the aluminium enclosure can survive the toughest installation. A writable side label allows the installer an opportunity to document field cabling locations right on the unit. The switch is powered from an external 48 VDC isolated power supply. A removable power connector facilitates the servicing of the unit. LEDs built into the connector indicate data rate and activity on each of the eight...

Power Considerations Applied voltage must be in the specified range and deliver a current commensurate with power consumption. The recommended size for solid power conductors is 16–20 AWG; and for stranded conductors use 16–18 AWG. Both power input terminals are isolated from chassis (earth). Input connections are reverse-polarity protected. Input voltage should be sourced from an isolated Class 2 power supply in order to comply with the IEEE 802.3af and UL 508 specifications.
