Overview The ToughNet TN-5516/5518 series M12 managed Ethernet switches are designed for industrial applications in harsh environments. The TN series switches use M12 and other circular connectors to ensure tight, robust connections, and guarantee reliable operation against environmental disturbances, such as vibration and shock. The wide selection of 12/24/36/48 VDC, 72/96/110 VDC, or 110/220 VDC/VAC dual redundant power supplies increases the reliability of your communications.
IEEE 1588 PTP (Precision Time Protocol) for the precise time synchronization of networks. DHCP Option 82 for IP address assignment with different policies. Modbus/TCP industrial Ethernet protocol. Turbo Ring, Turbo Chain,and RSTP/STP (IEEE802.1w/D). IGMP Snooping and GMRP for filtering multicast traffic from industrial Ethernet protocols.

TN-5518 Series Panel/Wall Mounting STEP 1: Mounting the TN-5516/5518 to a wall requires 4 screws. Use the ToughNet switch as a guide to mark the correct positions of the 4 screws. STEP 2: Use the 4 screws in the panel mounting kit. If you 6.0 - 7.0 mm would like to use your own screws, make sure the screw head is between 6.0 mm and 7.0 mm in...
STEP 3: Once the screws are fixed in the wall, hang the ToughNet switch on the 4 screws through the large opening of the keyhole-shaped apertures, and then slide the switch downwards. Tighten the four screws for added stability. NOTE To provide greater protection from vibrations and shocks, use screws with shaft diameter between 6.0 mm and 7.0 mm, and fix the ToughNet switch onto the wall directly through the large...
To remove the Moxa ToughNet Switch from the DIN-Rail, use a screwdriver to pull out the two spring-loaded brackets from the bottom until they are fixed in the “locked” position. Then reverse Step 3 and 4 above. DIN-Rail Wiring Requirements WARNING Turn the power off before disconnecting modules or wires.
Please read and follow these guidelines: 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 through the same wire conduit.

Connecting the Relay Outputs Each TN-5516/5518 switch has two sets of relay outputs—relay output 1 and relay output 2.The M12 A-coded 5-pin male connector on the TN-5516/5518 front panel is used for the two relay outputs. Use a power cord with an M12 A-coded 5-pin female connector to connect the relay contacts.

10/100/1000BaseT(X) Ethernet Port Connection The TN-5518-2GTX models have two Gigabit Ethernet ports with RJ45-type circular connectors. The 10/100/1000BaseT(X) ports located on the bottom of the TN-5518 are used for connecting Ethernet-enabled devices. These two ports support standard Ethernet cables with RJ45 connectors; however, they will not be vibration or water-proof.
NOTE 1. “Hardware-based IP configuration” only supports IPv4 address settings. 2. “Hardware-based IP configuration” is enabled only when the 3 rotary switches are set to values ranging from 001 to 254. The ToughNet switch’s IP address will be configured as “192.168.127.xxx”, where “xxx”...
With the maximum segment length of category 5 twisted-pair cable being 100 meters, cable length must be considered when designing a network that utilizes this function. For example, the total length of the cables from Switch A to B and from B to C must be no more than 100 meters. This way, if the two adjacent nodes (switch B and C for example) encounter a power failure, there will be no stoppage, provided that the total length of the cables A-to-B, B-to-C, and C-to-D are no more than 100 meters.
