Wiring the Power and Alarm Inputs

The Wall-mount Managed Switch features a strong dual power input system incorporated into the customer’s automation network to enhance system reliability and uptime.

Power Input Range

Model

| PWR1| PWR2
---|---|---
WGS-6325-8UP2X| DC 48-54V, 11A max

Note: Maximum power requirements also rely on the real site application.

PLANET-Technology-WGS-6325-8UP2X-Flat-Type-L3-Ring-Managed-Gigabit-PoE-
Switch-FIG-7

NOTE
Dual power input is required for maximum PoE loading

  • Single power input: Max. 240 watts PoE budget
  • Dual power input: Max. 480 watts PoE budget

CAUTION
PWR1 and PWR2 must provide exactly the same DC voltage for power load balance while operating with dual power input.

Terminal Block Connector Pinout
The Front Panel of the Wall-mount Managed Switch consists of one spring terminal block connector within 4 contacts. Please follow the steps below to insert the power wire.

Insert positive/negative DC power wires into Contacts V1+ and V1- for Power 1, or Contacts V2+ and V2- for Power 2.

Wiring Completed in Three Steps

  • Step 1: Press the flat-blade screwdriver diagonally into the release hole.
  • Step 2: Leave the flat-blade screwdriver pressed into the release hole and insert the wire into the terminal hole. Insert the wire until the stripped portion is no longer visible to prevent shorting.
  • Step 3: Remove the flat-blade screwdriver from the release hole. After you connect the wires, pull gently on the wire to make sure that it will not come off and the wire is securely fastened to the terminal block.PLANET-Technology-WGS-6325-8UP2X-Flat-Type-L3-Ring-Managed-Gigabit-PoE-Switch-FIG-9 PLANET-Technology-WGS-6325-8UP2X-Flat-Type-L3-Ring-Managed-Gigabit-PoE-Switch-FIG-10

NOTE
The wire gauge should be in the range of 12 to 16 AWG.

Wiring the Alarm Contact
The alarm contacts are in the middle of the terminal block connector as the picture shows below. Inserting the wires, the Wall-mount Managed Switch will detect the event status of the port or power failure and then forms an open circuit. The following illustration shows an application example for wiring the alarm contacts.
