Growatt Shine LAN-X Ethernet Direct Connection

Growatt Shine LAN-X Ethernet Direct Connection

The Growatt ShineLAN-X is a wired Ethernet monitoring datalogger for Growatt -X, -XE and -XH series inverters. It plugs into the inverter's USB port and connects via an RJ45 Ethernet cable directly to a router or network switch, providing a stable, interference-free connection to ShineServer and the ShinePhone app. Setup is fully plug-and-play via DHCP. Max LAN range: 100 m (Cat5e). Built-in storage retains up to one month of data with automatic retransmission on reconnection. IP65. Operating range: −30°C to +60°C. Dimensions: 152 × 47 × 28 mm, 84 g. Compatible with Growatt MIC, MIN, MOD, MID, MAC and MAX -X series inverters with a USB port. The ideal choice where Wi-Fi is unreliable, unavailable or not permitted.

ℹ Compatibility: ShineLAN-X is compatible with the Growatt -X monitoring range only. Verify your inverter model ends in -X, -XH or -XE before ordering.
ℹ Installer Code Policy: Growatt is introducing an Installer Code Policy in the UK and Ireland. Installers must register a code before commissioning.
Key Features
Wired Ethernet — Maximum Stability, Zero Radio Interference
The ShineLAN-X communicates via a direct Ethernet cable, making it immune to: 2.4 GHz congestion from other Wi-Fi networks, thick walls and building materials that attenuate wireless signals, and router band-steering that can cause 2.4 GHz-only Wi-Fi dongles to fail. For inverters in basements, plant rooms, outbuildings or metal enclosures, a Cat5e cable run from the nearest switch is the most reliable solution.
Wired Ethernet100m rangeNo Wi-Fi issues
Plug-and-Play — DHCP Auto-Configure, No App Setup Needed
Connect the RJ45 cable between the ShineLAN-X and a router LAN port. The device obtains an IP address via DHCP and begins uploading data automatically. No Wi-Fi password entry, no AP mode, no app pairing. For static IP configuration, the built-in interface is available at 192.168.0.254.
DHCP zero-touchNo password entryStatic IP available
One Month Built-In Storage with Auto-Retransmission
Local flash memory stores up to one month of inverter data. During connectivity interruptions, generation data continues to be logged. On reconnection, all stored data is automatically retransmitted to ShineServer with no gaps in the monitoring history.
1 month storageAuto-retransmitGap-free history
IP65 — Suitable for Outdoor and Damp Environments
IP65 rating provides dust-tight protection and resistance to water jets. Operating range −30°C to +60°C. Compatible with outdoor inverter locations, garages, loft spaces and unheated enclosures.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why choose a wired LAN dongle over a Wi-Fi dongle?
A wired Ethernet connection is immune to 2.4 GHz interference, works through thick walls and metal structures that attenuate Wi-Fi, does not require password management or re-pairing after a router change, and provides stable 100 m range via Cat5e. For inverters in basements, garages, loft spaces or commercial plant rooms, the LAN dongle is the more reliable choice.
Which Growatt inverters is the ShineLAN-X compatible with?
All Growatt -X, -XE and -XH series inverters with a USB port: MIC TL-X, MIN TL-X, MOD TL3-X, MID TL3-X, MAC TL3-X, MAX TL3-X, TL3-LV, SPH-UP. Not compatible with older -S series inverters.
How do I access the static IP configuration page?
Connect the ShineLAN-X directly to your PC with an Ethernet cable (no router). Set your PC adapter to IP 192.168.0.2, mask 255.255.255.0, gateway 192.168.0.1. Open a browser and navigate to 192.168.0.254.
What happens if my internet connection drops?
Data is logged locally for up to one month. On reconnection, all stored data is retransmitted automatically. No data is lost.
Is there a difference between the ShineLAN-X and ShineWiLan-X2?
Yes. The ShineLAN-X provides Ethernet (wired) connection only. The ShineWiLan-X2 adds Wi-Fi (2.4 GHz) and Bluetooth (BLE 4.2) to the same unit. If wired Ethernet is your only requirement, the ShineLAN-X is the simpler choice. If you also need Wi-Fi or Bluetooth capability, choose the ShineWiLan-X2.
