Overview The IMC-21GA series includes industrial 10/100/1000BaseT(X) to 100/1000BaseFX media converters that provide a cost-effective solution, and are specially designed for reliable and stable operation in industrial environments. Package Checklist Moxa’s IMC-21GA is shipped with the following items. If any of these items are missing or damaged, please contact your customer service representative for assistance.
Mounting Dimensions DIN Rail Mounting The aluminum DIN rail attachment plate should be fixed to the back panel of the IMC-21GA when you take it out of the box. If you need to reattach the DIN rail attachment plate to the IMC-21GA, make sure the stiff metal spring is situated towards the top.
• Do not run signal or communications wiring and power wiring in the same wire conduit. To avoid interference, wires with different signal characteristics should be routed separately. • You can use the type of signal transmitted through a wire to determine which wires should be kept separate.
Communication Connections RJ45 Ethernet Port Connection The IMC-21GA has one 10/100/1000BaseT(X) Ethernet port located on the front panel for connecting to Ethernet-enabled devices. When connected to a 10/100 Mbps Ethernet port, the pinouts and cable wiring diagrams for both MDI (NIC-type) and MDI-X (HUB/switch-type) ports for both straight-through and cross-over Ethernet cables are: MDI Port Pinouts MDI-X Port Pinouts...

1000BaseSFP Fiber Port Connection The Gigabit Ethernet ports on the IMC-21GA are 1000BaseSFP Fiber ports, which require using Gigabit mini-GBIC fiber transceivers to work properly. The concept behind the LC port and cable is straightforward. Suppose you are connecting devices I and II; contrary to electrical signals, optical signals do not require a circuit in order to transmit data.
ATTENTION The IMC-21GA is only compatible with transceiver modules from Moxa's SFP-1G series and SFP-1FE series. If you are using the SFP-1FESLC-T, SFP-1FELLC-T, or SFP-1FEMLC-T, use version V1.3 or above to ensure that the IMC-21GA's media converter functionality works properly. ATTENTION This is a Class 1 Laser/LED product.
LED Indicators The front panel of the Moxa IMC-21GA contains several LED indicators. The function of each LED is described in the table below.
