About the Switches
These switches provide real-time access to network data through the
Logix-based control system. The switches integrate into Logix programs and
update tags automatically.
Use the switches to assist in continuously monitoring your network and
implementing changes.
The figure shows Ethernet port identification for the 1783-EMS08T 8-port and
the 1783-EMS04T 4-port switches.
Ethernet Port Identification
Install the Switches
Mount the switches, as shown, in the vertical position only. We do not
recommend horizontal mounting due to thermal considerations. When
mounting:
• Provide 50 mm (2 in.) of space on all sides for adequate heat dissipation.
• Leave 100 mm (4 in.) for installation and removal if using the fiber-optic
port on the bottom of the 1783-EMS08T switch.
IMPORTANT
Use care with the plastic DIN rail clip.
