Twisted Pair Ports
This section describes the twisted pair ports.
Connector Type The twisted-pair ports have 8-pin RJ-45 connectors. The ports use four
pins at 10 or 100 Mbps and all eight pins at 1000 Mbps. The pin
assignments are listed in Table 23 on page 132 and Table 24 on
page 133.
Speed The ports can operate at 10, 100, or 1000 Mbps. The switch can set the
speeds automatically with Auto-Negotiation, the default setting, or you can
manually set the speeds with the AlliedWare Plus operating system.
Note
Twisted-pair ports must be set to Auto-Negotiation to operate at
1000 Mbps. You cannot manually set twisted-pair ports to 1000
Mbps.
Duplex Mode The twisted-pair ports can operate in either half- or full-duplex mode at 10
or 100 Mbps. Ports operating at 1000 Mbps can only operate in full-duplex
mode. The twisted-pair ports are IEEE 802.3u Auto-Negotiation compliant.
The switch can set the duplex modes automatically or you can disable
Auto-Negotiation and set the duplex modes manually.
Speed and duplex mode settings can be set independently of each other
on the ports. For example, the speed of a port can be configured manually
while its duplex mode is established through Auto-Negotiation.
Note
Switch ports connected to 10 or 100 Mbps end nodes that do not
support Auto-Negotiation should not use Auto-Negotiation to set
their speed and duplex mode settings, because duplex mode
mismatches might occur. You should disable Auto-Negotiation and
set the speed and duplex mode settings manually with the
AlliedWare Plus operating system.
Maximum
Distance
The ports have a maximum operating distance of 100 meters (328 feet).
IE340 Series Installation Guide
28
Cable
Requirements
Minimum cable requirements for the twisted pair ports are listed here:
10Mbps operations: Standard TIA/EIA 568-compliant Category 3,
100 ohm shielded or unshielded cabling, complying with IEEE
802.3i 10Base-T specifications.
100Mbps operations: Standard TIA/EIA 568-compliant Category 5,
100 ohm shielded or unshielded cabling, complying with IEEE
802.3u 100Base-TX specifications.
1Gbps operations: Standard TIA/EIA 568-compliant Category 5,
100 ohm, 4-pair shielded or unshielded cabling, complying with
IEEE 802.3ab 1000Base-T specifications. Category 5e is
recommended.
Note
Category 3 and 5 cables may be used for EN55024 immunity levels;
however, they are not recommended for IEC61000-6-2 and
EN50121-4 immunity levels.
Note
A Category 6 or 6a shielded or unshielded cable is required to meet
IEC61000-6-2 and EN50121-4 immunity levels.
Automatic MDIX
Detection
The 10/100/1000 Mbps twisted-pair ports are IEEE 802.3ab compliant,
with automatic MDIX detection at 10 or 100 Mbps. (Automatic MDIX
detection does not apply to 1000 Mbps.) This feature automatically
configures the ports to MDI or MDI-X depending on the wiring
configurations of the end nodes.
Switch ports connected to network devices that do not support automatic
MDIX detection default to MDIX.
You may disable automatic MDIX detection on the individual ports and
configure the MDI/MDI-X settings manually.
Port Pinouts Refer to Table 23 on page 132 for the pinouts of the twisted-pair ports at
10 or 100 Mbps and to Table 24 on page 133 for the port pinouts at 1000
Mbps.
Chapter 1: Overview

Power over Ethernet
The section explains the Power over Ethernet (PoE) Power Sourcing
Equipment (PSE) feature for the following IE340 switches:
IE340-12GP
IE340-20GP
IE340L-18GP
Note
The IE340-12GT Switch does not support PoE PSE.
The PoE PSE feature allows the switches to supply electrical power to
network devices over the same twisted pair cables that carry network
traffic. The feature can simplify network installation and maintenance
because it allows you to use the switches as central power sources for
other network devices.
Devices that receive their power over Ethernet cables are called powered
devices (PD). Examples of PDs include wireless access points, IP
telephones, web cams, and even other Ethernet switches. A PD
connected to a port on the switch receives both network traffic and power
over the same twisted-pair cable.
PoE Versions The IE340 PoE PSE Switches support the following versions of PoE:
PoE (IEEE 802.3af, IEEE 802.3at Type 1)
PoE+ (IEEE 802.3at Type 2)
Table 1 lists the switch ports that source PoE and the maximum power
levels.

Requirements for
PoE Devices
Minimum cable requirements for twisted pair ports when sourcing PoE are
listed here:
PoE devices: Standard TIA/EIA 568-compliant Category 3,
shielded or unshielded cabling.
PoE+ devices: Standard TIA/EIA 568-compliant Category 5e, 4-
pair shielded or unshielded cabling. Category 6 is recommended.
Note
Category 3 and 5 cables may be used for EN55024 immunity levels;
however, they are not recommended for IEC61000-6-2 and
EN50121-4 immunity levels.
Note
Category 6 or 6a shielded or unshielded cable is required to meet
IEC61000-6-2 and EN50121-4 immunity levels.
Powered Device
Classes for PoE
and PoE+
The PoE and PoE+ standards define five powered device classes. The
classes are defined by the power requirements of the powered devices.
The classes are shown in Table 2. The IE340 PoE PSE switches support
all five classes.
Power Delivery
with Alternatives
A and B
The PoE standards define two methods for delivering power over twisted
pair cables from power sources such as the Ethernet switch to powered
devices. The methods, called Alternatives A and B, identify the wire
strands that carry the electrical power over the Ethernet cables to the
powered devices from the power source, which in this case is the
switch sourcing PoE.
Table 2. PoE and PoE+ Device Classes
Class Usage
Maximum
Power Output

PD Power Range
0 Default 15.4W 0.44W to 12.95W

2 Optional 7.0W 3.84W to 6.49W
3 Optional 15.4W 6.49W to 12.95W
4 Optional 30.0W 12.95W to 25.9W
Chapter 1: Overview
31
Twisted pair cabling usually has eight strands. For 10Base-T and
100Base-TX devices, the wire strands connected to pins 1, 2, 3, and 6
carry the network traffic while the strands connected to pins 4, 5, 7, and 8
are unused. 1000Base-T devices use all eight strands to carry network
traffic.
For PoE and PoE+ devices, power is delivered over four of the eight
strands. In Alternative A, power is delivered on strands 1, 2, 3, and 6,
which are the same strands that carry the 10/100Base-TX network traffic.
In Alternative B, power is delivered on strands 4, 5, 7, and 8. These are the
unused strands.
The IE340 PoE PSE switches support only Alternative A: They support
PoE and PoE+ powered devices that comply with the IEEE 802.3af and
802.3at standards. The standards require that powered devices support
both Alternatives A and B.
Note
Legacy Powered Devices that are non-standard or were
manufactured before the completion of the standards and support
only one method might not be compatible with the IE340 PoE PSE.
PoE Power
Budget
The IE340 PoE PSE switches have a configurable power budget. This is
the total amount of power output that a switch can supply to the powered
devices on its ports. The switches have a maximum allowed budget of
240W. The actual power budget depends on the capabilities of the DC
power supply.
The number of powered devices the switch can support at one time
depends on the switch’s PoE budget and the wattage requirements of the
powered devices.
To determine whether the wattage requirements of the PoE devices you
plan to connect to the switch exceed its budget, see their documentation
for their power requirements and add the requirements together. The
switch can power all the devices simultaneously as long as the total is
below its PoE power budget. If the total exceeds the available power
budget, you should consider reducing the number of PoE devices so that
all the devices receive power. Otherwise, the switch powers a subset of
the devices, based on PoE port priorities.
The switch can handle different power requirements on different ports.
This enables you to connect different classes of PoE equipment to the
ports on the switch.
IE340 Series Installation Guide
32
PoE Port
Priorities
If the power requirements of the powered devices exceed the switch’s
power budget, the switch denies power to some ports based on a system
called PoE port priorities. You may use this mechanism to ensure that
powered devices critical to the operations of your network are given
preferential treatment by the switch in the distribution of power should the
demands of the devices exceed the available capacity.
There are three priority levels:
Critical
High
Low
Ports set to the Critical level, the highest priority level, are guaranteed
power before any of the ports assigned to the other two priority levels.
Ports assigned to the other priority levels receive power only if all the
Critical ports are receiving power. Ports that are connected to your most
critical powered devices should be assigned to this level. If there is not
enough power to support all the ports set to the Critical priority level,
power is provided to the ports based on port number, in ascending order.
The High level is the second highest level. Ports set to this level receive
power only if all the ports set to the Critical level are already receiving
power. If there is not enough power to support all of the ports set to the
High priority level, power is provided to the ports based on port number, in
ascending order.
The lowest priority level is Low. This is the default setting. Ports set to this
level only receive power if all of the ports assigned to the other two levels
are already receiving power. As with the other levels, if there is not enough
power to support all of the ports set to the Low priority level, power is
provided to the ports based on port number, in ascending order.
Power allocation is dynamic. Ports supplying power to powered devices
may cease power transmission if the switch’s power budget is at
maximum usage and new powered devices, connected to ports with
higher priorities, become active.

SFP Slots
The following IE340 switches have four slots for 100/1000Base-X fiber
optic, MSA-compliant SFP transceivers:
IE340-12GP
IE340-12GT
IE340-20GP
The IE340L-18GP Switch has two SFP slots for Ethernet 1000Base-X
fiber optic, MSA-compliant SFP transceivers.
You can use transceivers to connect switches to other network devices
over large distances, build a high-speed backbone network between
network devices, or connect high-speed devices, such as servers, to your
network.
Refer to the product data sheet for a list of supported Ethernet
transceivers.
To protect SFP transceivers from heat-related damage, you should select
transceivers whose maximum operating temperatures exceed the
anticipated maximum ambient temperature at the switch installation site.
Table 3 provides recommendations for SFP maximum operating
temperatures for several ambient site temperatures.

Console Port
The Console port is a serial RS-232 port. You use the port to access the
AlliedWare Plus management software to configure the features.
Management sessions conducted through the Console port are called
local management sessions because you have to be at the location of the
switch. Local management sessions do not interfere with the network
operations of the switch and are not performed over the network.
Consequently, the switch does not have to have an IP address for this
type of management.
Local management sessions require the following items:
Terminal or a personal computer with a terminal emulation
program
Management cable
The switch comes with a management cable. If you need a replacement
cable, you can purchase one or build your own. Refer to Table 25 on
page 134 for the pin assignments of the Console port.
To establish a local management session with the switch, connect a
Terminal or a personal computer with a terminal emulation program to the
Console port, which has an RJ-45 style (8P8C) connector, with the
management cable.
The Console port has the following settings:
Default baud rate: 9600 bps (Range is 9600 to 115200 bps)
Data bits: 8
Parity: None
Stop bits: 1
Flow control: None
Note
These settings are for a DEC VT100 or ANSI terminal, or an
equivalent terminal emulation program.
Chapter 1: Overview
35
USB Port
The USB port can be used with a flash drive for the following management
functions:
Use Allied Telesis Autonomous Management Framework (AMF) to
provide a centralized network backup location.
Store backup copies of configuration files.
Transfer configuration files between switches.
Store or transfer log files.
Store or transfer debug files (for example, the output of the SHOW
TECH-SUPPORT command).
Boot the AlliedWare Plus management software and master
configuration file from flash drive.
Note
The port is compatible with USB v1.0 and v2.0 flash drives.
Operating the switch with a flash drive is optional.
Caution
Do not leave a flash drive in the USB port when the ambient
temperature exceeds 65°C.
Note
The IE340L-18GP switch does not have a USB port.
IE340 Series Installation Guide
36
Reset Button
The Reset button resets the switch. You might reset the switch if it is
experiencing a problem. The reset button is recessed in the chassis. To
press it, use a straightened paper-clip or similar object.
Caution
The switch does not forward network traffic during the reboot
process. Some network traffic may be lost. E113
Note
The reboot process may take two to three minutes.
Note
Unsaved changes to the configuration settings of the switch are
discarded when you reset the device.
Ground Screw
The ground screw is used to connect the chassis to the earth ground at
the installation site. The instructions for connecting the post are provided
later in this guide.
Warning
The switch must be connected to an earth ground. Do not operate
the device without an earth ground. E129
Chapter 1: Overview

PWR 1 and PWR 2 DC Power Connectors
The PWR 1 and PWR 2 connectors are for DC power supplies. You can
power the unit with one power supply or two power supplies for power
redundancy, which protects the device from power loss in the event a DC
power unit fails or loses power.
The switches support the following types of power sources:
AC/DC rectifiers
Un-interruptible power supplies
For power supply requirements, see “Power Supplies” on page 49.
Note
The AT-iMG008 Power Supply and Backup Unit from Allied Telesis
is not compatible with IE340 Switches.
IE340 Series Installation Guide
38
Alarm In Connector
The switch has a 2-pin Alarm In (ALM IN) connector for an external sensor
on the top panel. The switch can use an external sensor to monitor the
wiring room or cabinet for unauthorized access or for changes in the
room’s environment, such as the temperature or humidity. Here are
examples of the types of sensors you can attach to the connector:
Door
Temperature
Motion detector
Light
Humidity
The two pins of the connector, referred to as contact alarm 1 in the
operating system, act as a electrical circuit. The switch places a 3.3VDC
voltage on the circuit and monitors its status, which can be either closed or
open. A closed circuit is on, meaning that voltage can flow through the
circuit, while an open circuit is off, preventing the flow of voltage through
the circuit.
The switch performs one or more of the following functions when the state
of the external sensor changes to open or closed.
Transmits an SNMP trap.
Flashes the Fault LED.
Activates the device on the Alarm Out (ALM OUT) connector.
You use the ALARM FACILITY INPUT-ALARM command in the
AlliedWare Plus operating system to specify the state of the external
sensor that signals an alarm. Alarms remain active until their causes are
resolved. For instructions on the command, refer to the Software
Reference for IE340 Switches.
Here are the requirements for the external sensor:
It must be a dry contact.
It must not place any current on the circuit.
It must not use the voltage or current for its own operations.
It must be able to handle a minimum of 3.3VDC and 320uA.
Caution
The external sensor might damage the Alarm In connector if it
places a voltage on the circuit. E118
Chapter 1: Overview
39
The example in Figure 8 shows the Alarm In connector attached to a door
sensor. The sensor is installed such that it is closed (on) when the door is
closed and open (off) when the door is open.
Figure 8. Example 1 of the Alarm In (ALM IN) Connector
To have the switch generate an alarm when someone opens the door, you
enter the following ALARM FACILITY INPUT-ALARM command. The
command configures the switch to generate an alarm when the state of the
sensor changes from closed to open.
awplus(config)# alarm faci li ty input-alarm 1 ala rm -
position open
The alarm remains active until the door is closed again.
In the example in Figure 9 on page 40, the Alarm In connector is
connected to a temperature sensor. The sensor is configured to be open
(off) at temperatures of 30° C or below and closed (on) at temperatures
above 30° C.
Door Sensor:
Door closed - circuit closed
Door open - circuit open
Alarm In connector:
Alarm triggered when circuit
changes to open.
IE340 Series Installation Guide
40
Figure 9. Example 2 of the Alarm In (ALM IN) Connector
To have the switch trigger an alarm when the temperature exceeds 30° C,
you enter the following ALARM FACILITY INPUT-ALARM command:
awplus(config)# alarm facility input-alarm 1 alarm-
position close
The command configures the switch to signal the alarm when the sensor
changes to closed above 30° C. When the temperature falls below 30° C,
and the temperature sensor changes from closed to open, the switch
automatically cancels the alarm.
Note
External sensors are not available from Allied Telesis.
Temperature Sensor:
Temperature <30C - circuit open
Temperature >30C - circuit closed
Alarm In connector:
Alarm triggered when circuit
changes to closed.
Chapter 1: Overview
41
Alarm Out Connector
The switch has a 2-pin Alarm Out (ALM OUT) connector on the top panel
for an external alert device. The switch can use the device to alert you to
alarm conditions, such as power supply failures or ports without links. Here
are two examples of alert devices for the Alarm Out connector:
LEDs
Buzzers
The switch does not supply power on the Alarm Out circuit. Instead, the
circuit is an on or off dry contact relay. When an alarm occurs, the switch
changes the circuit from closed (on) to open (off). The circuit remains open
until the alarm is resolved, at which point the switch automatically closes it
again. The processes to resolving alarms can vary.
The external alert device has to provide the necessary power for the circuit
and be able to monitor the circuit for when it is closed or open. Here are
the power specifications for the circuit:
30VDC maximum
0.5A maximum
Caution
The external alert device must not exceed the above specifications.
The Alarm Out connector can be damaged by devices that exceed
the specifications. E119
You use the ALARM FACILITY RELAY command to specify the alarm
condition that opens the Alarm Out circuit. Examples of alarm conditions
are power supply failures, ports without links, and loop detections. For
instructions on the command, refer to the Software Reference for IE340
Switches.
An example of the feature is illustrated in Figure 10 on page 42. The Alarm
Out connector is attached to a blue LED alert device. The alert device is
configured such that its LED is off when the circuit is closed and on when
the circuit is open.
Now assume you want the switch to open the circuit and activate the LED
on the alert device whenever any port on the switch does not have a link to
a network device. Here are the ALARM FACILITY RELAY commands:
IE340-20GP:
awplus(config)# alarm faci li ty link-down
port1.0.1-port1.0.20 re lay
IE340 Series Installation Guide
42
IE340L-18GP:
awplus(config)# alarm facility link-down
port1.0.1-port1.0.18 relay
IE340-12GP and IE340-12GT:
awplus(config)# alarm facility link-down
port1.0.1-port1.0.12 relay
If the switch detects that a port does not have a link, it changes the circuit
from closed to open. The alert device, detecting the change to the circuit,
turns on the LED. When the switch detects that all its ports have links
again, it closes the circuit, which turns off the LED.
Note
Alarm devices are not available from Allied Telesis.
Figure 10. Example of the Alarm Out Port
DIN Rail Bracket
The switch comes with one DIN rail bracket pre-installed on the back
panel. The bracket is compatible with DIN 35 x 7.5mm rails.
Screw Holes for Wall Brackets
The back panel has four holes for securing the two wall brackets included
in the accessory kit.

Chapter 2: Beginning the Installation
59
Reviewing Site Requirements
Please observe the following requirements and guidelines when choosing
a site for the switch:
Warning
You must install the switch in a UL Listed 3X or 4X enclosure when
installing it in an outdoor environment.
The switch must be installed in a Restricted Access location.
The switch does not require an enclosure when installed in most
indoor environments.
The switch must be installed in a UL Listed or Nationally
Recognized Test Lab enclosure when used in a Measurement,
Control, or Laboratory indoor environment, as specified in UL/EN/
IEC 61010-1 and 61010-2-201.
The IE340L-18GP switch is not compliant with UL/EN/IEC 61010-1
and 61010-2-201 and should not be used in an indoor
Measurement, Control, or Laboratory environment.
You can install the switch on a concrete wall, wooden wall, or DIN
35x7.5mm rail.
You should not install the switch on a wall that has metal studs.
Metal studs might not be strong enough to safely support the
device.
You should not install the switch on sheetrock or similar material.
Sheetrock might not be strong enough to safely support the device.
The site should allow for easy access to the ports on the front of
the device, so that you can easily connect and disconnect cables,
and view the port LEDs.
The DC power source should be located near the device and be
easily accessible.
The site should not expose the device to moisture or water.
The site should be a dust-free environment.
Do not place objects on top of the switch.
When installing the device in an enclosure, verify that the
enclosure has adequate airflow so that the unit does not overheat.
The site should allow for adequate air flow around and through the
cooling fins on the sides of the switch. The following minimum open
spaces around the switch are recommended:
– Two inches (5.08cm) under and above the switch.
– Two inches (5.08cm) in front of the switch.
IE340 Series Installation Guide
60
– Two inches (5.08cm) on the left and right sides of
the switch.
Select an enclosure that is large enough for the switch, DC power
supply, and all other included equipment.
The enclosure size must be determined by considering multiple
factors, including the outside ambient temperature, total heat
generated by the installed equipment, sealed or unsealed
enclosure type, enclosure material, paint color, mounting method
(wall, pole, ground, etc.), and sun load. The smaller enclosure size
you choose, the higher the risk of overheating the product faces.
If the product overheats in an enclosure that was built without
taking into account these factors, the warranty of the product might
be voided. Consult Allied Telesis when assistance is needed.
The enclosure BTU/hour rating must be higher than the total BTU/
hour values of equipment installed in the enclosure, over the
expected operating temperature range. For the operating
temperature ratings, refer to Table 16 on page 128. For heat
dissipation, refer to Table 21 on page 130.
The switch’s maximum operating temperature depends on its
orientation on the wall and the type of enclosure. Allied Telesis
recommends installing the device vertically for best possible
ventilation and cooling.
If you install the switch in an metal enclosure, be sure to review the
manufacturer’s installation guide for rules and restrictions on site
requirements, and to follow all guidelines and safety warnings.
The switch and DC power source must be installed close to each
other so that the DC power cables are kept as short as possible to
minimize voltage loss.
Before installing the DC power supply, be sure to review the
manufacturer’s installation guide for rules and restrictions on site
requirements, and to follow all guidelines and safety warnings.
The site should include dedicated power circuits or power
conditioners to supply reliable electrical power to the network
devices.
The switch and power supply must be properly connected to a
protective earth ground.
The switch and power supply must be individually grounded to the
grounding conductor. Do not daisy-chain the ground wires.
If you install the switch in a metal enclosure, the enclosure must be
properly grounded to a protective earth ground following local
electrical codes and the instructions in the manufacturer’s
installation guide.
Chapter 2: Beginning the Installation
61
Powered devices connected to the LAN ports on the switch must
be grounded to the same grounding conductor at the service
entrance as the switch.
LAN ports should have additional lightning protections as specified
in 802.3at standard, Section 33.4.1.1.2, Environment B
Requirements, when connected to powered devices that are not
grounded to the same grounding conductor at the service entrance
as the switch.
Electromagnetic interference might occur between switches and
other devices when multiple switches are powered by a single DC
power supply. This can be addressed by installing clamp-on ferrite
beads on the DC power cables, between the DC power supply and
switches.
Recommendations for ground resistivity are given in Table 10.
The twisted pair cabling should not be exposed to sources of
electrical noise, such as radio transmitters, broadband amplifiers,
power lines, electric motors, and fluorescent lights.
Allied Telesis recommends using CAT6 STP or UTP for LAN ports.
These cables provide higher protection from radio frequency
interference.
Outdoor installation requires adequate electromagnetic immunity
due to the higher thread-level conditions. For guidelines, refer to
“Installing the Switch in an Outdoor Environment” on page 83.
The narrow spacing between SFP transceiver slots and adjacent
twisted pair ports can make it difficult to connect and disconnect
cables. Refer to Figure 13 on page 62. Allied Telesis recommends
installing and cabling SFP slots before cabling adjacent twisted
pair ports. You might need to use a flat tool to disconnect cables.

install the switch outdoors, read following requirements and precautions.
You must meet all requirements to install the switch outdoors.
Requirements for
Outdoor
Installation
Here are the requirements:
Warning
Install the switch in a UL-listed Type 3X or 4X enclosure when
installing the switch in an outdoor environment.
Follow the enclosure manufacturers installation recommendations
to maintain safety and protection from outdoor environment.
Verify that the enclosure BTU/hour rating is higher than the total
BTU/hour values of equipment installed in the enclosure over the
expected operating temperature range. For the operating
temperature ranges, see Table 16 on page 128.
The enclosure size should be determined by considering multiple
factors, such as the outside ambient temperature, total heat
generated from the installed equipment, sealed or unsealed
enclosure type, enclosure material, paint color, mounting method
(wall, pole, ground, etc.), and sun load. The smaller enclosure size
you choose, the higher risk of overheating the product faces. If the
product overheats in an enclosure that was built without taking into
account these factors, the warranty of the product might be voided.
Consult Allied Telesis when assistance is needed.
Immunity and
Precautions
The IE340 Switches are suitable for industrial applications, which require
electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) standards, such as
EN 61000-6-2 for immunity and EN 61000-6-4 for interference.
The generic standard EN 61000-6-2 specifies the immunity test levels in
relation to continuous and transient conducted and radiated disturbances.
Tests within the standard include Electrostatic Discharges (ESD),
Electrical Fast Transients (EFT), surge, Power Frequency Magnetic
Fields, and power interruptions. These tests use the same detailed
measurements and test methods used for the basic standard
EN 61000-4-x series.
The equipment connected to outdoor cables may be exposed to surges,
which can damage components and circuits.
The IE340 Switches satisfy the surge immunity defined by IEC 61000-4-5
test level 3 and the requirements for the installation class 3.
IE340 Series Installation Guide
84
The IE340 Switches have a surge immunity of up to 2 kV. This is sufficient
when interconnection cables are partly outdoor cables and close to the
grounding network. If this condition is not satisfied, Allied Telesis strongly
recommends installing primary surge protections, which are usually
provided by the use of solid state or gas tube arrestors located at the point
where the cable enters the building or the outdoor cabinet.
Note
The requirements may not be sufficient to protect against damages
in extreme environments and in cases such as close or direct
lightning strikes.
Lightning
Protection
Requirements
Lightning strikes the ground and follows the paths of least impedance to
cause damages. To provide an effective lighting protection system, you
must put the following fundamental measures in place:
Surge protection device must be installed at every service
entrance to stop the intrusion of lightning from outside.
Bonding must be accommodated to eliminate the opportunity for
lightning to side-flash internally. The bonding resistance between
any termination point and the related earthing rod should not
exceed 0.01 ohms.
Grounding electrode system must efficiently move the lightning to
its final destination away from the structure and its contents.The
resistance of the common grounding electrode should not exceed
5 ohms.
Cable conductors route lightning current over and through the
construction, without damage, toward the grounding electrode
system.
To avoid interference problems, use CAT6 Shielded Twisted Pair
(STP) cables to connect devices if a device, e.g. camera, is
installed outdoors, or a network cable is routed outdoors.
Avoid Ground Loop. STP cabling must be grounded on one side
only. Failure to do so can lead Ground Loop, which is a condition
created when a network has more than one ground point. Ground
Loop causes a voltage difference between connected networking
components. As a result, current loops potentially damage the
connected equipment.
Use appropriate grounding. Systems without appropriate
grounding can experience either complete system failures or
intermittent problems that are hard to diagnose. Improper
installation of electrical grounding components can make the
components work ineffectively. Installing a system with the proper
grounding equipment and following proper installation guidelines
can reduce potential down time as well as costly repairs to system
electronics.
Chapter 3: Installing the Switch
85
Note
The users of the plant or those responsible for the installation should
apply the necessary measures (e.g. shielding, bonding, and
grounding protection) to ensure that the interference voltages
caused by lighting strokes do not exceed the available immunity
level.
IE340 Series Installation Guide

IE340 Series Installation Guide
88
Cabling the Twisted Pair Ports
Here are the guidelines to cabling the twisted pair ports:
The ports have 8-pin RJ45 connectors.
The connectors on the cables should fit snugly into the ports, and
the tabs should lock the connectors into place.
The default speed setting for the ports is Auto-Negotiation. This
setting is appropriate for ports connected to network devices that
also support Auto-Negotiation.
The default speed setting of Auto-Negotiation is not appropriate for
ports connected to network devices that do not support Auto-
Negotiation and have fixed speeds of 10 or 100 Mbps. For those
switch ports, disable Auto-Negotiation and set the port’s speed
manually to match the speeds of the network devices.
The 10/100/1000Base-T ports must be set to Auto-Negotiation, the
default setting, to operate at 1000Mbps.
The default duplex mode setting for the ports is Auto-Negotiation.
This setting is appropriate for ports connected to network devices
that also support Auto-Negotiation for duplex modes.
The default duplex mode setting of Auto-Negotiation is not
appropriate for ports connected to network devices that do not
support Auto-Negotiation and have a fixed duplex mode. Disable
Auto-Negotiation on those ports and set their duplex modes
manually to avoid the possibility of duplex mode mismatches. A
switch port using Auto-Negotiation defaults to half-duplex if it
detects that the end node is not using Auto-Negotiation. This can
result in a mismatch if the end node is operating at a fixed duplex
mode of full-duplex.
The default wiring configuration of the ports is automatic MDIX
detection, which configures the MDI/MDIX setting automatically.
This setting is appropriate for switch ports that are connected to
network devices that also support the feature.
The default wiring configuration of automatic MDIX detection is not
appropriate for ports that are connected to network devices that do
not support the feature. On those ports, you should disable
automatic MDIX detection and set the wiring configuration
manually with the POLARITY command.
Chapter 4: Cabling the Ports
89
The appropriate MDI/MDI-X setting for a switch port connected to a
10/100Base-T network device with a fixed wiring configuration
depends on the setting of the network device and whether the
switch and network device are connected with straight-through or
crossover cable. If you are using straight-through twisted pair
cable, the wiring configurations of a port on the switch and a port
on a network device must be opposite each other, such that one
port uses MDI and the other MDI-X. For example, if a network
device has a fixed wiring configuration of MDI, you must disable
auto-MDI/ MDI-X on the corresponding switch port and manually
set it to MDI-X. If you are using crossover twisted pair cable, the
wiring configurations of a port on the switch and a port on a
network device must be the same.
Ethernet cables that are connected to outdoor equipment, such as
CCTVs mounted on poles, might be subjected to surges from
lightning or power cross events. Properly rated primary protection
devices must be installed on the cables before connecting them to
the switch.
The narrow spacing between SFP transceiver slots and adjacent
twisted pair ports can make it difficult to connect and disconnect
cables. Refer to Figure 13 on page 62. Allied Telesis recommends
installing and cabling SFP slots before cabling adjacent twisted
pair ports. You might need to use a flat tool to disconnect cables.
IE340 Series Installation Guide
90
Installing SFP Transceivers
Please review the following guidelines before installing SFP transceivers:
SFP transceivers are hot-swappable. You may install them while
the device is powered on.
For a list of supported transceivers, refer to the product data sheet.
The operational specifications and fiber optic cable requirements
of the transceivers are provided in the documents included with the
devices.
You should install a transceiver before connecting its fiber optic
cable.
Fiber optic transceivers are dust sensitive. Always keep the plug in
the optical bores when a fiber optic cable is not installed, or when
you store the transceiver. When you do remove the plug, keep it
for future use.
Unnecessary removal and insertion of a transceiver can lead to
premature failure.
The narrow spacing between SFP transceiver slots and adjacent
twisted pair ports can make it difficult to connect and disconnect
cables. Refer to Figure 13 on page 62. Allied Telesis recommends
installing and cabling SFP slots before cabling adjacent twisted
pair ports. You might need to use a flat tool to disconnect cables.
Warning
A transceiver can be damaged by static electricity. Be sure to
observe all standard electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions,
such as wearing an anti-static wrist strap, to avoid damaging the
device. E86
The illustrations in the following procedure show a transceiver with a
duplex LC connector. The connectors on your transceivers may be
different.
To install SFP transceivers in the chassis, perform the following
procedure:
1. Remove the dust plug from a transceiver slot. Figure 29 on page 91
shows the dust plug removed from slot 1.
Chapter 4: Cabling the Ports
91
Figure 29. Removing the Dust Plug from an SFP Slot
2. Remove the transceiver from its shipping container and store the
packaging material in a safe location.
3. Position the transceiver with its handle on the right and slide it into the
slot until it clicks into place. Refer to Figure 30.
Figure 30. Installing an SFP Transceiver
Note
If you are ready to attach the fiber optic cable to the transceiver,
continue with the next step. Otherwise, repeat steps 1 to 3 to install
the remaining transceivers in the switch.

Wiring the ALM IN and ALM OUT Connectors
For background information on the alarm connectors, refer to “Alarm In
Connector” on page 38 and “Alarm Out Connector” on page 41. Here are
general guidelines to the alarm connectors:
Use 24 to 18 AWG stranded wire properly rated for the installation
site.
The maximum length of an alarm cable is two meters.
Alarm cables must be contained within the cabinet or building. Do
not expose alarm cables to the outside environment.
The switch provides the voltage for the ALM IN circuit. Here are the
requirements for the external sensor for the ALM IN connector:
It must be a dry contact.
It must not place any current on the circuit.
It must not use the voltage or current from the switch on the circuit
for its own operations.
It must be able to handle a minimum of 3.3VDC and 320uA.
Caution
The external sensor might damage the Alarm In connector if it
places a voltage on the circuit. E118
The switch does not provide voltage on the ALM OUT connector circuit.
The external alert device has to provide the necessary power. Here are
the power requirements for the ALM OUT connector:
30VDC maximum
0.5A maximum
Caution
The power from the external alert device must not exceed the above
specifications. Otherwise, the Alarm Out connector circuit might be
damaged. E123
Note
The ALM OUT connector can sync 0.5A at 30VDC maximum.You
must provide a series resistance to limit current, if necessary.

Starting a Local Management Session
This section contains the procedure for starting a local management
session on the switch. Please review the following information before
performing the procedure:
The initial management session with the switch must be a local
session.
Local management sessions are conducted through the Console
port on the front panel.
Local management sessions do not interfere with the network
operations of the switch.
The switch comes with one 2 m (6.6 ft) management cable, with
RJ-45 and DB-9 connectors, for local management sessions. Refer
to Table 11 on page 65.
The switch does not need an IP address for local management
sessions.
You cannot initially manage the switch remotely with Telnet, SSH,
or web browser because the switch does not have a default IP
address and the DHCP client is disabled.
To start a local management session, perform the following procedure:
1. Connect the RJ-45 connector on your management cable to the
Console port on the switch.
2. Connect the other end of the cable to an RS-232 port on a terminal or
personal computer with a terminal emulation program.
3. Configure the VT-100 terminal or terminal emulation program as
follows:
Baud rate: 9600 bps (The baud rate of the Console port is
adjustable from 1200 to 115200 bps. The default is 9600 bps.)
Data bits: 8
Parity: None
Stop bits: 1
Flow controller: None
Note
The port settings are for a DEC VT100 or ANSI terminal, or an
equivalent terminal emulator program.
IE340 Series Installation Guide
114
Note
The baud rate must be set to the default 9600 bps to configure the
boot loader.
4. Press Enter. You are prompted for the name and password of the
manager account.
5. Enter the user name and password. The default values are “manager”
and “friend” (without the quotes), respectively.
Note
User names and passwords are case sensitive.
The switch starts the local management session and displays the
following prompt:
awplus>
The prompt indicates the command line interface is in the User Exec
mode.
6. Go to “Verifying PoE” on page 115.
Chapter 5: Powering On the Switch
115
Verifying PoE
This section contains procedures for verifying and, if necessary,
configuring the PoE budget on IE340 PoE PSE Switches. The procedures
are listed here:
“Verifying the PoE Budget,” next
“Configuring the Provisioned PoE Budget” on page 116
Verifying the PoE
Budget
The PoE budget is the maximum wattage the switch has available for the
powered devices on its twisted pair ports. The budget should be 240W for
power supplies that meet the specifications in “Power Supplies” on
page 49.
The procedure assumes you have already started a local management
session on the switch. For instructions, refer to “Starting a Local
Management Session” on page 113. To confirm the PoE budget, perform
the following procedure:
1. Enter the ENABLE command at the User Exec mode to move to the
Privileged Exec mode, as shown here:
awplus> enable
awplus#
2. Enter the SHOW POWER-INLINE command at the Privileged Exec
mode prompt, as shown here:
awplus# show power-inline
3. Examine the Power Allocated field in the command output.
It should be 240W. This is the maximum PoE budget for the powered
devices on the ports of the switch sourcing PoE.
If the power budget is 240W, go to the next step.
If the power budget is less than 240W, either the power supply
does not meet the specifications in “Power Supplies” on page 49 or
it has a problem. If the latter, refer to Chapter 6, “Troubleshooting”
on page 119 for troubleshooting suggestions.
4. Review the following information.
Ports connected to non-PoE devices do not require any further
configuration steps. The ports function as regular networking ports, but
without power for PoE devices.
IE340 Series Installation Guide
116
The default PoE values for ports sourcing PoE are listed here:
PoE is enabled.
The wiring configuration is Alternative A. (This parameter is not
adjustable.)
No further configuration steps are required for ports connected to the
following types of powered devices:
PoE or PoE+ devices that comply with PoE standards and support
both Alternatives A and B.
Legacy devices that only support Alternative A.
The above devices should now be receiving power from the ports on
the switch.
Configuring the
Provisioned PoE
Budget
The procedure in this section explains how to verify and adjust, if
necessary, the provisioned or nominal PoE budget for IE340 PoE PSE
switches. This value is the maximum wattage the switch is expecting from
the power supply for the powered devices on its ports. The provisioned
budget should be the same as or less than the actual PoE budget from the
power supply. If the provisioned budget is above the actual budget, the
switch may experience problems. For instance, it may attempt to distribute
more power than it actually has available from the power supply or display
the PoE Status LEDs incorrectly.
The default nominal or provisioned PoE budget is 240W. The default value
corresponds to the maximum PoE budget for power supplies that meet the
specifications in “Power Supplies” on page 49. If you purchase a power
supply that does not meet the specifications, the actual PoE budget may
be less, in which case you should perform the following procedure to
adjust the provisioned budget to match the actual value.
To verify and adjust the maximum provisioned PoE budget for the switch,
perform the following
1. In the Privileged Exec mode, enter the SHOW POWER-INLINE
command:
awplus# show power-inline
2. Compare the Nominal Power and Power Allocated fields in the
command output. The Nominal Power field is the provisioned PoE
budget of the switch. It is the wattage the switch is expecting from the
power supply for PoE devices. The Power Allocated is the actual
wattage the switch is receiving from the power supply. The default
value for the provisioned budget is 240W.
Chapter 5: Powering On the Switch
117
3. Do one of the following:
If the values in the Nominal Power and Power Allocated fields are
the same, no further installation steps are required. Refer to the
Software Reference for the IE340 Switches for management
instructions.
If the values are different, continue with the next step:
4. Enter the CONFIGURE TERMINAL command to move to the Global
Configuration mode:
awplus# configure terminal
awplus(config)#
5. In the Global Configuration mode. enter the POWER INLINE
WATTAGE MAX command to change the nominal value to be either
equal to or less than the actual wattage value. The format of the
command is given here:
power inline wattage max
max
The max variable is the value from the Power Allocated field from the
SHOW POWER-INLINE command. For example, if the Power
Allocated field has the value 180W, the command would be:
awplus(config)# power inline wattage max 180
The provisioned PoE budget of the switch is now set. Refer to the
Software Reference for the IE340 Switches for management
instructions.

PWR 1 and PWR 2 LEDs
Problem: A DC power supply is connected to the switch, but the
corresponding PWR 1 or PWR 2 LED on the front panel is off.
Solutions: The unit is not receiving power from the power supply or the
power is outside the operating range of the switch. Try the following:
Verify that the DC power source is powered on and operating
normally.
Review the DC power source’s documentation to verify that it is
compatible with the switch. The power supply requirements for the
switch are given in “Power Supplies” on page 49.
Verify that the PWR 1 -PWR 2 connector is fully inserted into the
slot in the top panel of the switch.
Verify that the DC wires are securely connected to the PWR 1 -
PWR 2 connector on the switch and to the DC power supply.
Verify that the DC positive and negative wires from the power
supplies are connected to the correct connectors on the DC PWR
1 - PWR 2 connectors on the switch.
Verify that the DC power wires are connected to the PWR 1 - PWR
2 connector and not to the ALM IN or ALM OUT connector.
Try using a different DC power source.
Try replacing the DC power wires.
Try connecting the DC power source to a different device.
Test the output voltage from the power source to verify that it is
within the operating range of the switch.
Chapter 6: Troubleshooting
121
Twisted Pair Ports
Problem: The switch is powered on and forwarding traffic, but all the port
LEDs are off.
Solutions: The port LEDs may have been turned off with the
ECOFRIENDLY LED command in the AlliedWare Plus operating system.
To turn on the LEDs, establish a management session with the unit and
issue the NO ECOFRIENDLY LED command in the Global Configuration
mode. The default setting for the LEDs is on.
Problem: A twisted pair port on the switch is connected to a network
device but the port’s LINK/ACT LED is off.
Solutions: The port is unable to establish a link to a network device. Try
the following:
Verify that the port is connected to the correct twisted pair cable.
This is to eliminate the possibility that the port is connected to the
wrong network device.
Verify that the network device connected to the twisted pair port is
powered on and is operating properly.
Verify that the network cable is securely connected to the ports on
the switch and remote network device.
Try connecting another network device to the twisted pair port with
a different cable. If the twisted pair port is able to establish a link,
then the problem is with the cable or the other network device.
Verify that the twisted pair cable does not exceed 100 meters (328
feet).
Verify that you are using the appropriate category of twisted pair
cable. Refer to “Cable Requirements” on page 28.
Use the switch’s management software to verify that the port is
enabled.
If the remote network device is a managed device, use its
management firmware to verify that its port is enabled.
Note
A 1000Base connection might require five to ten seconds to
establish a link.
IE340 Series Installation Guide
122
Problem: Network performance between a twisted pair port on the switch
and a network device is slow.
Solution: There might be a duplex mode mismatch between the port and
the network device. This can occur when a twisted pair port using Auto-
Negotiation is connected to a remote device that has a fixed speed of 10
or 100 Mbps and a fixed duplex mode of full duplex. If this is the cause of
the problem, adjust the duplex mode of the port on the network device or
switch so that both ports are using the same duplex mode. For the
switch, use the management software to determine the duplex mode
settings of the ports.
Chapter 6: Troubleshooting
123
SFP Slots
Problem: The LINK/ACT LED for an SFP transceiver is off.
Solutions: The fiber optic port on the transceiver cannot establish a link to
a network device. Try the following:
Verify that the remote network device connected to the fiber optic
port is operating properly.
Verify that the fiber optic cable is securely connected to the port on
the SFP module and to the port on the remote network device.
Check that the SFP transceiver is fully inserted in the slot in the
switch.
Verify that the operating specifications of the fiber optic ports on
the transceiver and remote network device are compatible.
Verify that the correct type of fiber optic cabling is being used.
Verify that the port is connected to the correct fiber optic cable.
This is to eliminate the possibility that the port is connected to the
wrong remote network device.
Try connecting another network device to the fiber optic port using
a different cable. If the port is able to establish a link, then the
problem is with the cable or with the other network device.
Use the switch’s management software to verify that the port is
enabled.
If the remote network device is a managed device, use its
management firmware to verify that its port is enabled.
Test the attenuation of both directions on the fiber optic cable with
a fiber optic tester to determine whether the optical signal is too
weak (sensitivity) or too strong (maximum input power).
IE340 Series Installation Guide
124
Power Over Ethernet
Problem: The switch sourcing PoE is not providing power to the connected
PoE powered devices
Solutions: Try the following:
Check that the device’s power requirements do not exceed those
listed in Table 1 on page 29. The power requirements should be
included in the device’s documentation or data sheet.
Start a local or remote management session on the switch and
enter the SHOW POWER-INLINE command. Subtract the Actual
Power Consumption value from the Power Allocated value to
determine the amount of unused power. The switch cannot support
the powered device if this value is less than the device’s power
requirements.
Verify that you are using the appropriate category of twisted-pair
cable by referring to “Cabling Requirements for PoE Devices” on
page 30.
Try replacing the twisted pair cable.
Use the management software on the switch to determine whether
PoE/PoE+ is enabled on the port. The default setting is enabled.
Use the SHOW POWER-INLINE command to determine whether
the PoE power setting for the port was reduced to a value below
the power requirements of the device.
Try connecting the device to a different port on the switch.

Note
The enclosure size should be determined by considering multiple
factors. This includes the outside ambient temperature, total heat
generated from the installed equipment, sealed or unsealed
enclosure type, enclosure material, paint color, mounting method
(wall, pole, ground, etc.), and sun load. The smaller enclosure size
you choose, the higher risk of overheating the product faces.
If the product overheats in an enclosure that was built without taking
into account these factors, the warranty of the product might be
voided. Consult Allied Telesis when assistance is needed.
