Note: The “OK” and “Fail” port indicator lights are only for infrared connections (where an
EthIR Beam is connected to one of the lower ports via an RJ45 cable). If using a particular
port for “Pass Through” mode (an Ethernet connection) the port indicator light for that port
will not light up (see Pass Through Mode (ES208 / 216 only) on page 2-5).
EthIR Switch (ES101/301/3011b/1000)
The EthIR Switch single port version is able

connectivity.
The adjacent figure illustrates the port panel
into which device cables are plugged:
9 mini-dim connector (for EthIR
Beam)
9 RJ45 Ethernet uplink port
9 power jack
In addition, the dual port model also offers
an additional Ethernet port that can be
connected to an Ethernet hub or available
for a desktop computer.
