Mounting Dimensions
DIN-Rail Mounting
The metal DIN-rail kit is fixed to the back panel of the EDS-G512E-8PoE
series when you take it out of the box. Mount the EDS-G512E-8PoE series
on corrosion-free mounting rails that meet the EN 60715 standard.
Installation:
STEP 1 : Insert the upper lip of the DIN rail into the DIN-rail mounting
kit.
STEP 2 : Press the EDS-G512E-8PoE series towards the DIN rail until it
snaps into place
Removal:
STEP 1 : Pull down the latch on the mounting kit with a screwdriver.
STEP 2 & 3: Slightly pull the EDS-G512E-8PoE series forward and lift up
to remove it from the DIN rail.
Wall Mounting (Optional)
For some applications, you will find it convenient to mount Moxa EDSG500E
series on the wall, as shown in the following illustrations:
STEP 1 : Remove the aluminum DIN rail attachment plate from the rear
panel of the-G512E-8PoE series, and then attach the wall mount plates with M3
screws, as shown in the figure at the right
STEP 2 : Mounting the EDS-G512E-8PoE series on the wall requires 4
screws. Use the EDS-G512E-8PoE series, with wall mount plates attached, as a
guide to mark the correct locations of the 4 screws. The heads of the screws
should be less than 6.0 mm in diameter, and the shafts should be less than 3.5
mm in diameter, as shown in the figure on at right.
NOTE: Before tightening the screws into the wall, make sure the screw
head and shank size are suitable by inserting the screw through one of the
keyhole-shaped apertures of the Wall Mounting Plates Do not screw the screws
in all the way—leave about 2 mm to allow room for sliding the wall mount panel
between the wall and the screws.
STEP 3 : Once the screws are fixed to the wall, insert the four screw heads through the wide parts of the keyhole-shaped apertures, and then slide the EDS-G512E-8PoE downwards, as indicated in the figure at the right. Tighten the four screws for more stability
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 devices may only be connected to the
supply voltage shown on the type plate. The devices are designed for operation
with a Safety Extra-Low Voltage. Thus, they may only be connected to the
supply voltage connections and to the signal contact with the Safety Extra-Low
Voltages (SELV) in compliance with IEC950/ EN60950/ VDE0805.
ATTENTION: This unit is a built-in type. When the unit is installed in
another piece of equipment, the equipment enclosing the unit must comply with
fire enclosure regulation IEC 60950/EN60950 (or similar regulation).
Safety First: Be sure to disconnect the power cord before installing
and/or wiring your Moxa EtherDevice Switch. 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.
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. 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. The rule of thumb is that wiring that shares similar electrical characteristics can be bundled together
-
You should separate input wiring from output wiring
-
We advise that you label the wiring to all devices in the system. Grounding the Moxa EDS-G512E-8PoE Series 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.
ATTENTION: This product is intended to be mounted to a well-grounded mounting surface such as a metal panel.
Wiring the Relay Contact
The EDS-G512E-8PoE series has one set of relay output. This relay contact uses two contacts of the terminal block on the EDS-G512E-8PoE’s top panel. Refer to the next section for detailed instructions on how to connect the wires to the terminal block connector, and how to attach the terminal block connector to the terminal block receptor. In this section, we illustrate the meaning of the two contacts used to connect the relay contact. FAULT: The two contacts of the 6-pin terminal block connector are 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
Wiring the Redundant Power Inputs
The EDS-G512E-8PoE series has two sets of power inputs—power input 1 and power input 2. The top and front views of one of the terminal block connectors are shown here.
- 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 small flat-blade screwdriver to tighten the wire-clamp screws on the front of the terminal block connector.
- STEP 3: Insert the plastic terminal block connector prongs into the terminal block receptor, which is located on the EDS-G512E-8PoE’s top panel
Wiring the Digital Inputs
The EDS-G512E-8PoE series has one set of digital input (DI). The DI consists
of two contacts of the 4-pin terminal block connector on the EDS-G512E-8PoE’s
top panel, which are used for the two DC inputs. The top and front views of
one of the terminal block connectors are shown here. STEP 1: Insert the
negative (ground)/positive DI wires into the ┴/I terminals, respectively.
STEP 2: To keep the DI wires from pulling loose, use a small flat-blade
screwdriver to tighten the wire-clamp screws on the front of the terminal
block connector.
STEP 3: Insert the plastic terminal block connector prongs into the
terminal block receptor, which is located on the EDS-G512E-8PoE’s top panel
Communication Connections
Each EDS-G512E-8PoE series switch has 4 types of communication ports:
- 1 USB console port (type B connector)
- 1 USB storage port (type A connector)
- 8 10/100/1000BaseT(X) Ethernet ports
- 4 100/1000Base SFP slots
USB Console Connection
The EDS-G512E-8PoE series has one USB console port (type B connector), located on the top panel. Use the USB cable (provided in the product package) to connect the EDS-G512E-8PoE’s console port to your PC’s USB port and install the USB driver on the PC. You may then use a console terminal program, such as Moxa PComm Terminal Emulator, to access the EDS-G512E-8PoE’s console configuration utility.

100/1000BaseSFP (mini-GBIC) Fiber Port
- The Gigabit Ethernet ports on the EDS-G512E-8PoE series are 100/1000BaseSFP Fiber ports, which require using the 100M or 1G mini-GBIC fiber transceivers to work properly. Moxa provides completed transceiver models for different distance requirements.
- The concept behind the LC port and cable is quite straightforward. Suppose that you are connecting devices I and II; contrary to electrical signals, optical signals do not require a circuit in order to transmit data. Consequently, one of the optical lines is used to transmit data from device I to device II, and the other optical line is used to transmit data from device II to device I, for full-duplex transmission.
- Remember to connect the Tx (transmit) port of device I to the Rx (receive) port of device II, and the Rx (receive) port of device I to the Tx (transmit) port of device II. If you make your own cable, we suggest labeling the two sides of the same line with the same letter (A-to-A and B-to-B, as shown below, or A1-to-A2 and B1-to-B2).

ATTENTION: This is a Class 1 Laser/LED product. To avoid causing serious damage to your eyes, do not stare directly into the Laser Beam.
Reset Button
There are two functions available on the Reset Button. One is to reset the
Ethernet switch to factory default settings by pressing and holding the Reset
button for 5 seconds. Use a pointed object, such as a straightened paper clip
or toothpick, to depress the Reset button. This will cause the STATE LED to
blink once a second. After depressing the button for 5 continuous seconds, the
STATE LED will start to blink rapidly. This indicates that factory default
settings have been loaded and you can release the reset button. When the
ABC-02-USB is connected to the EDS-G512E-8PoE Ethernet switch, the reset
button allows quick configuration and backs up log files to the ABC-02-USB.
Press the Reset button on top of the EDS-G512E-8PoE, the Ethernet switch will
start backing up current system configuration files and event logs to the
ABC-02-USB.
NOTE: Do NOT power off the Ethernet switch when loading default
settings.
Turbo Ring DIP Switch Settings
EDS-G512E-8PoE series are plug-and-play managed redundant Ethernet switches.
The proprietary Turbo Ring protocol was developed by Moxa to provide better
network reliability and faster recovery time. Moxa Turbo
Ring’s recovery time is less than 300 ms (Turbo Ring) or 50 ms (Turbo Ring V2)
—compared to a 3- to 5-minute recovery time for commercial switches—decreasing
the possible loss caused by network failures in an industrial setting.
There are 4 Hardware DIP Switches for Turbo Ring on the top panel of the EDS-
G512E-8PoE series that can help set up the Turbo Ring easily within seconds.
If you do not want to use a hardware DIP switch to set up the Turbo Ring, you
can use a web browser, telnet, or console to disable this function.
NOTE: Please refer to the Turbo Ring section in the Communication
Redundancy User’s Manual for more detailed information about the setting and
usage of Turbo Ring and Turbo Ring V2.
EDS-G512E-8PoE Series DIP Switches: The default setting for each DIP
Switch is OFF. The following table explains the effect of setting the DIP
Switch to the ON position

| OFF : Do not use this EDS as a ring coupler.| OFF : DIP switches 1, 2, and 3 will be disabled.
NOTE: You must enable the Turbo Ring function first before using the DIP
switch to activate the Master and Coupler functions.
NOTE: If you do not enable any of the EDS-G512E-8PoE series switches to
be the Ring Master, the Turbo Ring protocol will automatically choose the EDS-
G512E-8PoE series with the smallest MAC address range to be the Ring Master.
If you accidentally enable more than one EDS-G512E-8PoE series to be the Ring
Master, these EDS-G512E-8PoE series switches will auto-negotiate to determine
which one will be the Ring Master.
