Read this manual completely and gather all information on the product. Make sure that you understand it fully. Check that your application does not exceed the safe operating specifications for this product.
SAFETY DURING INSTALLATION
The product must be installed by qualified service personnel and built into an
apparatus cabinet or similar, where access is restricted to service personnel
only.
Refer to Compliance Information to see the required level of qualified service
personnel according to safety standards.
During installation, ensure a protective earthing conductor is first connected
to the protective earthing terminal (only valid for metallic housings).
Westermo recommends a cross-sectional area of at least 4 mm2.
Upon removal of the product, ensure that the protective earthing conductor is
disconnected last.
HAZARDOUS VOLTAGE
Do not open an energized product. Hazardous voltage may occur when connected
to a power supply.
PROTECTIVE FUSE
The power supply wiring must be sufficiently fused. The fuse must be IEC 60127
certified and rated for T1.25 A and 250 V.
It must be possible to disconnect manually from the power supply.
Ensure compliance with national installation regulations.
This product has no internal fuse and should be connected via an external fuse
for protection.
REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE
To reduce the risk of fire, use only telecommunication line cords with a cable
diameter of AWG 26 or larger. Regarding power cable dimensions, see Interface
Specifications.
HOT SURFACE
Be aware that the surface of this product may become hot. When it is operated
at high temperatures, the external surface may exceed Touch Temperature Limit
according to the product’s relevant electrical safety standard.
ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD)
Prevent electrostatic discharge damage to internal electronic parts by
discharging your body to a grounding point (e.g. use a wrist strap).
Care Recommendations
Follow the care recommendations below to maintain the full operation of the product and to fulfill the warranty obligations:
- Do not drop, knock or shake the product. Rough handling above the specification may cause damage to internal circuit boards.

Description
Viper-408 is a switch developed for rail and industrial applications. To meet the environmental requirements from rail and harsh industrial applications the switch has rugged M12 Ethernet connectors and full metal housing. The switch fulfills IP65 degree of protection when all ports are protected/connected. Our unique FRNT (Fast Recovery of Network Topology) technology is the fastest protocol on the market to reconfigure a network in the event of any failure of a link or hardware. Real-time properties are implemented in order to achieve determinism for real-time-critical applications. Viper408 supports QoS (Quality of Service) with four priority queues and strict priority scheduling as well as HoL (Head of Line Blocking Prevention). All to assure that the data network is deterministic.

Fault Contact
The Viper switch is equipped with a potential free normally closed fault contact. The fault contact is a solid-state component (relay) that requires power to work and it is transient protected. Additionally, the fault contact is opened when any of the following conditions are met:
- No voltage on the power supply pin, a voltage level outside the legal voltage range, or current limitation on the voltage source is applied on the power input.
- Link alarm i.e. missing link on any Ethernet port that has link alarm enabled.
- Redundancy Mode activated i.e. one or more FRNT link is down.
A description of how the connection to the fault contact could be done is shown below. The relay is closed when the unit is OK and open at failure. The relay is of semiconductor type (no moving parts). It is specified for max current 250 mA continuous, 500 mA peak (10 ms), operational voltage up to 110 V, protected by a 150 VDC-varistor, ON-resistance less than 10 Ohm, and leakage current max 1 µA.

Configuration
The units can easily be configured via the onboard Web-based configuration
tool. Local IP addresses can also be configured by using the Westermo IP
Configuration tool, from the IP Configuration tool it is then possible to
browse into the unit for further configuration.
IP Address
When delivered, the default IP address of the Viper is 192.168.2.200.
Default gateway 192.168.2.200
If the default address of the unit is valid in the connected network it is
possible to access the unit directly from a web browser.
Change Local IP Address
The local address of Viper can be configured using the IP Configuration tool,
then it is possible to browse into the unit for further configuration. The IP
Configuration program is available on the CD or for download from the Westermo
web page: http://www.westermo.com, choose
Downloads/Software/Ethernet/Ethernet switches Name: IP config
Westermo.zip
Install the software and start the application from a PC on the network
connected to the same network as the Viper. Make sure that the Default IP of
the configuration software (see figure below) is in the same subnet as your
PC.
**** If you are not sure about the subnet – consult your network administrator. IP Config version must be 10.0.0 or higher.
By clicking the “Scan for Devices” button the IP Configuration tool will
detect the switches/routers in the network. The software will list all
Westermo managed switches or routers connected to the network. Information as
in figure 1 will appear for each detected unit connected to the same network
as your PC.
If you only want to change the IP address and the subnet mask, this can be
done within the IP config tool.
By clicking the listed Viper that you wish to be re-configured you will be asked if you would like to access it via the web figure 2. Click the abort button, enter the preferred IP address, Subnet mask, and IP gateway address and click the Set button to confirm the settings in the unit (see figure 3).
**** If you are not sure about the settings – consult your network administrator.
Click the Close button to get back to the main view. You will then be asked if you would like to quit. Click the OK button, figure 4, and you will be back to the main view of the IP Configuration program(see figure 1).
Click the Scan for switches button again and the settings you configured will appear in the list. Now you can access the Viper via the browser for further configuration by clicking the unit with an IP address that fits your subnet. Figure 2 will appear and when you click the OK button and a web browser will be opened and redirected to the Viper unit log-in page (see figure 5).
Log in via Web
You will be prompted with a Login screen where
the default settings for Username and Password are:
Username: admin
Password: westermo
The unit can be easily configured via the onboard Web-based configuration
tool.
The network interface and switch properties can be configured and stored.
The Web tool also has an extended integrated help function describing all
configuration options.
Max 10 characters can be used in the login. The following characters are not
valid.
ASCII 34 = ”
ASCII 35 = #
ASCII 39 = ’’
ASCII 40 = (
ASCII 92 = \
Mounting
There are four 6 mm boreholes intended for mounting the unit. The unit can be mounted vertical or horizontal. The unit is wall mounted.
Removal
Disconnect all cables and unscrew the unit from the wall.
Cooling
This unit uses convection cooling. Avoid obstructing the airflow around the
unit. Spacing is recommended for the use of the unit in the full operating
temperature range and service life.
Factory Reset
The factory reset option restores the switch to its original factory
condition.
The switch will be restored using the following settings.
- IP address 192.168.2.200
- Subnet mask 255.255.255.0
- Gateway 192.168.2.1
- All Ethernet ports are enabled and set to Auto Negotiate
- All applications are disabled
- Password reset to westermo
To perform a Factory Reset follow the procedure below. Read all steps before starting. If you have any doubts about whether the reset is performed or not, do NOT unplug the power supply, wait for confirmation according to step 5.
- Disconnect the power
- Connect cables between port x1-x6 and port x2-x5.
- Apply power
- Wait for approximately 90 seconds. (Some LEDs will flash during start-up
- When the Green LED’s on all Ethernet ports are constantly on, then remove the cables connected to ports x1-x6 and x2-x5.
- It is now safe to remove the power and restart the switch.
- When the switch has started up it will have the default settings.
**** If the power is removed before the factory reset has finished, the switch may become unusable.
Dimensions
Measurements are stated in millimeters.
