Environmental Tolerance Conditions

Operating Temperature: 0°C to +60°C (Standard operational range).

Storage / Transport Temperature: -40°C to +70°C.

Relative Humidity: 10% to 95% (Non-condensing).

EMC Immunity: High immunity against electrostatic discharges (ESD) and surge voltages per EN 61000-6-2 standards.

Mechanical Stability: Certified high resistance against shock (15 g, 11 ms) and vibration (IEC 60068-2 standards).

Installation Method

DIN Rail Mounting: Hook the top clip onto the standard 35 mm DIN rail (EN 50022) and push the lower edge gently toward the rail until the mounting spring snaps firmly into place.

System Grounding: Fasten a low-impedance copper ground wire to the dedicated grounding terminal screw on the housing frame before attaching any network or power cabling.

Power Terminals: Wire primary and redundant DC power sources (12–48 V DC) to the terminal block connections (+24V / 0V for Power Input 1 and Power Input 2).

Cabling Connections:

Fiber: Remove protective dust plugs and insert multi-mode SC duplex fiber jumpers into the optical ports.

Copper: Insert standard RJ45 network cables until the retention tab clicks into position.

Operating Instructions

Power-On Sequence: Turn on power to either or both inputs; the system LED indicator will turn solid green once initialization finishes.

Initial Configuration & IP Setting:

Connect a configuration PC to one of the active RJ45 ports.

Use the Hirschmann HiDiscovery tool to locate the device's MAC address and assign a static management IP address.

Management Access: Access the switch by entering its assigned IP address into a web browser, sign in with default administrator credentials, and immediately change the password.

Configuration Backup: Use an optional Auto-Configuration Adapter (ACA21-USB or ACA11) plugged into the local console/USB port to store automatic system backups for rapid swapouts.
