Grounding the Moxa Industrial Rackmount Switch
Grounding and wire routing help limit the effects of noise due to
electromagnetic interference (EMI). Run the ground connection from the ground
screw to the grounding surface prior to connecting devices.
NOTE Using a shielded cable achieves better electromagnetic compatibility.
Connecting the Power Inputs
The IKS-6728A-8PoE switches support 4 types of power supply.
- IKS-6728A-8PoE-4GTXSFP-HV-HV-T: Two isolated 110/220 VAC (85 to 264 VAC) power supplies for switch and two isolated 48 VDC power inputs for PoE+ ports
- IKS-6728A-8PoE-4GTXSFP-HV-T: One isolated 110/220 VAC (85 to 264 VAC) power supply for the switch and one isolated 48 VDC power input for the PoE+ ports
- IKS-6728A-8PoE-4GTXSFP-48-48-T: Two isolated 48 VDC power supplies for switch and PoE+ ports
- IKS-6728A-8PoE-4GTXSFP-48-T: One isolated 48 VDC power supply for switch and PoE+ ports
For the HV models, the 110/220 VAC power supplies provide power for switch operation. Separate 48 VDC power supplies are required to provide power to all PoE+ ports (50 to 57 VDC is recommended for IEEE 802.3at devices). For the 48 VDC models, the 48 VDC power supplies provide power for switch operation and to all PoE+ ports (50 to 57 VDC is recommended for IEEE 802.3at devices).
The IKS-6700A switches support 3 types of power supply:
- IKS-6726A/6728A HV series: Two isolated 110/220VAC (85 to 264 VAC) power supplies for switch
- IKS-6726A/6728A 24/48VDC series: Two isolated 24 or 48VDC power supplies for switch
Wiring Requirements
WARNING
Do not disconnect modules or wires unless power has been switched off or the area is known to be non-hazardous. The device may only be connected to the supply voltage shown on the type plate. The device is designed for operation with a Safety Extra-Low Voltage (SELV) or an isolated power supply, which means that they may only be connected to the supply voltage connections and to the signal contact with a SELV or an isolated power supply in compliance with IEC 60950-1/EN 60950-1 or UL 508.
AC Power Inlets
The connection for PWR1 (power supply 1) and PWR2 (power supply 2) are located
on the rear panel (shown below). Be sure to use a standard power cord with an
IEC C13 connector, which is compatible with the AC power inlet.
DC Power Terminal Blocks
The connection for EPS1 (external power supply 1) / PWR1 (power supply 1) and
EPS2 (external power supply 2) / PWR2 (power supply 2) are located on the rear
panel (shown below).
STEP 1:
Insert the negative/positive DC wires into the V-/V+ terminals, respectively.
STEP 2:
To keep the DC wires from pulling loose, use a screwdriver to tighten the
wire-clamp screws. Wiring the Relay Contact Each switch has one relay output.
FAULT:
The relay contact of the 2-pin terminal block connector is used to detect
user-configured events. The two wires attached to the fault contacts form an
open circuit when a user-configured event is triggered. If a user-configured
event does not occur, the fault circuit remains closed.
USB Connection
The switch has two USB ports, one type B USB-serial console port and one type
A USB host port, located on the front panel. Use a USB cable (type A male to
type B male) to connect the USB-serial console port to your PC’s COM port, and
install the USB driver (available in the software CD) on the PC. You may then
use a console terminal program, such as Moxa’s PComm Terminal Emulator, to
access the console configuration utility of the switch. Use Moxa’s USB
Automatic Backup Configurator ABC-02-USB to connect to the USB host port to
backup and restore configuration files, auto-load configuration files, upgrade
firmware, and backup system log files.
The Reset Button
Depress the Reset button for five continuous seconds to load the factory default settings. Use a pointed object, such as a straightened paper clip or toothpick, to depress the Reset button. When you do so, the STATE LED will start to blink about once per second. Continue to depress the STATE LED until it begins blinking more rapidly; this indicates that the button has been depressed for five seconds and you can release the Reset button to load factory default settings.
NOTE DO NOT power off the switch when loading default settings.
LED Indicators
The front panel of the IKS switch contains several LED indicators. The function of each LED is described in the table below.
| LED | Color | State | Description |
|---|
System LEDs
PWR1*
|
AMBER
| On| Power is being supplied to the main
module’s power input PWR1
Off| Power is not being supplied to the main
module’s power input PWR1
PWR2*
|
AMBER
| On| Power is being supplied to the main
module’s power input PWR2
Off| Power is not being supplied to the main
module’s power input PWR2

*: On the IKS-6700A/IKS-6728A-8PoE-4GTXSFP-48-48-T model, both
PWR1 and PWR2 LED will be “On” with a single power input. This is because both internal power units are operating as redundant secondary power with the single input.

Rack Mounting Instructions
- Elevated Operating Ambient: If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient. Therefore, consideration should be given to installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma) specified by the manufacturer.
NOTE In order to ensure reliable operations, please make sure the operating temp. of the environment does not exceed the spec. When mounting an IKS rack-mounted switch with other operating units in a cabinet without forced ventilation, it is recommended that 1U of space is reserved between each rack- mounted switch and/or device.
