FAQ

Q: What fiber type does this switch support?
A: Refer to the product label for specific fiber connector type (typically ST or SC multimode for DeltaV fiber switches).

Q: Can this be used in a redundant network ring?
A: As a single-port device, it is typically used at the network edge. For ring redundancy, multi-port switches (e.g., KJ1740X1-BA1) are recommended.

Q: Is grounding required?
A: Yes, proper chassis grounding is essential for EMC performance and safety in hazardous areas.

Installation Guidelines

1. Mount on a DIN rail or panel in a suitably rated enclosure.
2. Connect 24 VDC power to the terminal block.
3. Attach the fiber patch cable to the port and verify link LED illumination.
4. Ensure the enclosure maintains IP rating for the installed environment.

Selection Tips

• Choose KJ1710X1-BA1 when you need a single fiber port extension in a DeltaV network.
• Verify fiber connector type (ST/SC/LC) matches your plant cabling standard.
• For multi-port fiber switching, consider the 4-port KJ1740X1-BA1.
