DIN-Rail Mounting The plastic DIN-rail attachment plate should already be fixed to the rear panel of the EDS when you take it out of the box. If you need to reattach the DIN-rail attachment plate, make sure the DIN-rail kit is situated towards the top, as shown in the figures below.
Wiring Requirements ATTENTION Safety First! Be sure to disconnect the power cord before installing and/or wiring your Moxa EtherDevice Switch. Calculate the maximum possible current in each power wire and common wire. Observe all electrical codes dictating the maximum current allowable for each wire size. If the current goes above the maximum ratings, the wiring could overheat, causing serious damage to your equipment.
Wiring the Power Inputs The two left-most contacts of the 3-contact terminal block connector on the EDS’s top panel are used for the DC input. Top and front views of one of the terminal block connectors are shown here. STEP 1: Insert the negative/positive DC wires into the V-/V+ terminals.
RJ45 (8-pin) to RJ45 (8-pin) Straight-Through Cable Wiring RJ45 (8-pin) to RJ45 (8-pin) Cross-Over Cable Wiring LED Indicators The front panel of the Moxa EtherDevice Switch contains several LED indicators. The function of each LED is described in the table below. Color State Description...
Switching, Filtering, and Forwarding Each time a packet arrives at one of the switched ports, a decision is made to either filter or forward the packet. Packets with source and destination addresses belonging to the same port segment will be filtered, constraining those packets to one port, and relieving the rest of the network from the need to process them.
