Installation Guidelines
- Ensure all power to the installation area is de-energized before mounting or connecting the device.
- Securely mount the SCALANCE XB213-3 switch onto a standard DIN rail in a suitable industrial enclosure, ensuring adequate ventilation.
- Connect the required 10/100 Mbps RJ45 Ethernet cables to the respective ports, ensuring proper cable routing and strain relief.
- For fiber optic connections, connect Multi-Mode Fiber Optic (MM FO) ST cables to the designated ports, observing proper fiber handling procedures.
- Connect the console cable to the console port for initial configuration or diagnostic access, if required.
- Connect the redundant power supply leads to the designated terminals, observing correct polarity and ensuring secure connections.
- Verify all connections are firm and correctly seated before re-energizing the system.
- Observe the diagnostics LEDs to confirm proper power-up and network link status after power restoration.
