Page 5: First-Time Installation And Configuration
FAULT LED will light up in red if the power failure alarm is enabled. NOTE The VPort 354 series support power input specifications of 12-32 VDC for 12/24 VDC power input, or 18-30 VAC for 24 VAC power input (note that this is different from Moxa EDS switch’s 12-45... - Page 6 Step 4: Connecting motorized PTZ cameras and serial devices. The VPort 354 has 2 RS-232/422/485 ports. One is a COM PORT with DB9 male connector, and the other is a PTZ PORT with 5-pin terminal block connector. Both ports can be used for connecting PTZ control cables for controlling PTZ cameras over the TCP/IP network.

Wall Mounting (optional) NOTE Wall-mounting kit (WK-46) ordered separately For some applications, you will find it convenient to mount the VPort 354 on a wall, as illustrated below. STEP 1: Remove the aluminum DIN-Rail attachment plate from VPort 354, and then attach the wall mount plates, as shown in the diagrams below. -
Page 13: Wiring Requirements
Wiring Requirements WARNING Safety First! Be sure to disconnect the power cord before installing and/or wiring your Moxa VPort 354. 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. -
Page 14: Wiring The Redundant Power Inputs
Wiring the Redundant Power Inputs The VPort 354 has two sets of power input, power input 1 and power input 2, which are located on the 10-pin and 8-pin terminal block connectors. Top and front views of the terminal block connectors are shown here. STEP 1: Insert the negative/positive DC or AC wires into the V-/V+ terminals. -
Page 15: Wiring The Digital Inputs
Wiring the Digital Inputs VPort 354 has four sets of digital input, DI1, DI2, DI3 and DI4. Each DI consists of two contacts of the 10-pin terminal block connector on VPort’s top panel. Top and front views of one of the terminal block connectors are shown here. -

10/100BaseT(X) Ethernet Port Connection The 10/100BaseT(X) ports located on the VPort 354’s front panel are used to connect to Ethernet-enabled devices. Below we show pinouts for both MDI (NIC-type) ports and MDI-X (HUB/Switch-type) ports, and also show cable wiring diagrams for straight-through and cross-over Ethernet cables. - Page 17 SC-Port Pinouts SC-port to SC-port Cable Wiring NOTE The 2 Ethernet ports on the VPort 354’s front panel can be used as cascade links or to provide port redundancy. When used as cascade links, you will need to calculate the number of video streams in order to optimize the transmission bandwidth.
