ONT-S207CW-62TS-SE / Binardat 2G06-04210GSM
Overview
ONT-S207CW-62TS-SE and Binardat 2G06-04210GSM are managed switches with identical hardware:
- CPU: RTL8372N (confirmed via serial: "Detecting CPU: RTL8372N")
- Flash: GD25Q128E (16MB)
- Ports: 4x 2.5G RJ45 + 2x 10G SFP+
- Console: 115200 baud (RTLPlayground firmware) / 9600 baud (stock firmware)
Note: These devices use PCB-SWTG024AS-A-2.0.1 but with different port mapping and LED configuration than the stock PCB-SWTG024AS-A-2.0.1 firmware. Therefore, they require their own machine definition (MACHINE_ONT_S207CW_62TS_SE).

Port to Logical Mapping
| Physical Port | Logical Port | Type | LED Set | Web UI Display |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 0 | RJ45 | 0 | Port 1 |
| 2 | 1 | RJ45 | 0 | Port 2 |
| 3 | 2 | RJ45 | 0 | Port 3 |
| 4 | 3 | RJ45 | 0 | Port 4 |
| 5 | 4 | SFP+ (SDS0) | 1 | Port 5 |
| 6 | 5 | SFP+ (SDS1) | 1 | Port 6 |
Important: The web UI will show ports in the correct physical order (1-4 RJ45, 5-6 SFP) because the logical-to-physical mapping preserves the order.

Flashing Instructions
Prerequisites
- GD25Q128E flash chip (16MB)
- CH341A SPI programmer (recommended)
- flashrom tool (Linux) or Flashrom GUI (Windows)
Via CH341A (Direct Flash)
Linux (flashrom):
# Install flashrom first
sudo apt install flashrom
# Flash the firmware (may need sudo)
flashrom -p ch341a_spi -c "GD25Q128E/GD25B128E/GD25R128E/GD25Q127C" -w rtlplayground-ONT_S207CW_62TS_SE-v11.bin --noverify-all
Alternative command (if above fails):
flashrom -p ch341a_spi -c "GD25Q128E" -w rtlplayground-ONT_S207CW_62TS_SE-v11.bin
Via Loader Mode (Web UI Upgrade)
The OEM upgrade file can be flashed via the device's loader mode:
-
Enter Loader Mode:
- Power off the switch
- Hold the reset button
- Power on while holding reset
- Release after ~5 seconds
- Switch should be accessible at
192.168.10.247
-
Upload via HTTP:
curl -T rtlplayground_oem_upgrade-ONT_S207CW_62TS_SE-v11.bin http://192.168.10.247/firmware -
Or via Web Browser:
- Access
http://192.168.10.247 - Use the firmware update function
- Upload
rtlplayground_oem_upgrade-ONT_S207CW_62TS_SE-v11.bin - Wait for completion and reboot
- Access
Via RTLPlayground Web UI (After First Flash)
Once RTLPlayground firmware is running:
- Access web interface at
http://192.168.2.1 - Navigate to System > Firmware Update
- Upload the
.binfile - Wait for flash completion and reboot
Recovery
If flashing fails and the switch does not boot:
Method 1: Loader Mode Recovery
- The loader mode always remains accessible
- Switch boots to
192.168.10.247when in loader mode - Flash via:
curl -T firmware.bin http://192.168.10.247/firmware
Method 2: Serial Recovery (if loader mode fails)
- Connect UART: 115200 baud, 8N1
- Use CH341A to flash directly:
flashrom -p ch341a_spi -c "GD25Q128E" -w firmware.bin
Method 3: SOIC8 Clip
- Connect SOIC8 clip to CH341A
- Use flashrom as above
- Chip: GD25Q128E (16MB)

Known Issues & Fixes
✅ Issue: LEDs showing wrong colors (FIXED in v11)
Symptom: All RJ45 ports show green at all speeds, SFP LEDs incorrect Root Cause: Wrong LED mux configuration and LED set assignments Fix: Use v11 firmware with:
- Original firmware LED mux values (extracted from stock firmware)
- Correct LED set to physical port mapping
- Proper LED color logic (Green=2.5G/10G, Orange=1G/2.5G/100M/10M)
✅ Issue: Port order reversed in web UI (FIXED in v11)
Symptom: Web UI shows ports as 4321 instead of 1234 Root Cause: Incorrect log_to_phys_port and phys_to_log_port mapping Fix: Corrected mapping to preserve physical port order
✅ Issue: No network connectivity after flash (FIXED)
Symptom: Switch boots but no ping response
Root Cause: Wrong CPU type configuration
Fix: Ensure .isRTL8373 = 0 (this is RTL8372N, not RTL8373)
✅ Issue: SFP modules not detected (FIXED)
Symptom: SFP ports not working Root Cause: Wrong SFP port SDS assignments Fix: Correct SDS0/SDS1 assignments and GPIO pins
Version History
| Version | Date | Changes | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| v3 | 2026-09-14 | Initial PCB_SWTG024AS_A_2_0_1 config | ❌ Port order wrong, LEDs wrong |
| v10 | 2026-09-17 | LED colors corrected | ⚠️ LEDs better, port order still wrong |
| v11 | 2026-09-18 | Separate machine def, correct port mapping, original LED mux | ✅ All working |
Notes
- This device shares PCB-SWTG024AS-A-2.0.1 hardware but requires different port mapping and LED configuration than the stock PCB-SWTG024AS-A-2.0.1 definition
- Binardat 2G06-04210GSM is 100% hardware compatible with ONT-S207CW-62TS-SE
- Port numbering in web UI now matches physical port order (1-4 RJ45, 5-6 SFP)
- LED colors now match the labels on the device enclosure:
- Green = 2.5G (RJ45) / 10G (SFP)
- Orange = 1G/100M/10M (RJ45) / 1G/2.5G (SFP)
- The Loader Mode always remains accessible at 192.168.10.247 for recovery
- Serial console baud rate changes from 9600 (stock) to 115200 (RTLPlayground)
