Overview The EDS-G308 series is equipped with 8 Gigabit Ethernet ports and up to 2 fiber optic ports, making it ideal for applications that demand high bandwidth. The EDS-G308 series provides an economical solution for your industrial Gigabit Ethernet connection, and the built-in relay warning function alerts maintainers when power failures or port breaks occur.

DIN-Rail Mounting The aluminum DIN-rail attachment plate should already be fixed to the back 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 stiff metal spring is situated towards the top, as shown in the figures below.
STEP 3: Once the screws are fixed in the wall, insert the four screw heads through the large parts of the keyhole-shaped apertures, and then slide the EDS downwards, as indicated. Tighten the four screws for added stability. ATEX Information 1.

You should also pay attention to the following items: • Use separate paths to route wiring for power and devices. If power wiring and device wiring paths must cross, make sure the wires are perpendicular at the intersection point. NOTE: Do not run signal or communications wiring and power wiring in the same wire conduit.
Wiring the Redundant Power Inputs The top two contacts and the bottom two contacts of the 6-contact terminal block connector on the EDS’s top panel are used for the EDS’s two AC/ DC inputs. Top and front views of one of the terminal block connectors are shown here.
