Mounting Dimensions

Unit: mm (inch)

Wall Mounting

In most applications, wall mounting the TAP-213 is the most commonly used method, which makes installation easier as illustrated below:
STEP 1:
Attach the wall-mounting plates with M4 screws.

STEP 2:

Mounting the TAP-213 to a wall requires 4 screws. Use the TAP-213 device, with wall-mounting plates attached, as a guide to mark the correct locations of the 4 screws. The heads of the screws should be 6.0 mm in diameter, and the shafts should be less than 3.5 mm in diameter, as shown in the figure at the right.
Do not drive the screws in all the way—leave a space of about 2 mm to allow room for sliding the wall-mount panel between the wall and the screws.

NOTE Test the screw head and shank size by inserting the screw into one of the keyhole-shaped apertures of the wall-mounting plates before driving the screws into the wall.

STEP 3: Once the screws are driven into the wall, insert the four screw heads through the large opening of the keyhole-shaped apertures in the wall mount plates, and then slide the TAP-213 downwards, as indicated to the right. Tighten the four screws for added stability.

DIN-Rail Mounting (Optional)

The DIN-rail mounting method is used in industrial or railway applications. You will require a DIN-rail attachment plate, which is an optional accessory, to mount the TAP-213  to a DIN rail. When you attach the DIN-rail attachment plate to the TAP-213, make sure that the stiff metal spring is situated towards the top as shown in the following  instructions:

STEP 1:

Attached are the DIN-rail mounting plates to the TAP-213 using M3 screws.
STEP 2: Insert the top of the DIN rail into the slot just below the stiff metal spring.
STEP 3: The DIN-rail attachment unit will snap into place as shown in the figure below:
To remove the TAP-213 from the DIN rail, simply reverse Steps 2 and 3.

Pole Mounting (Optional)

You might find it more convenient to mount the TAP-213 on a pole for some applications, as illustrated below. The edges of the iron rings that are part of the pole-mounting kit are sharp. We suggest that you wear gloves to protect your hands during the installation process.

STEP 1: Attach the pole-mounting kit to the TAP-213 using M4 screws.
STEP 2:

Install the TAP-213 on a pole and use a flathead screwdriver to fasten the screws on the rings of the pole-mounting kit to secure it to the pole.

Wiring Requirements

WARNING
Safety First!
Be sure to disconnect the power cord before installing and/or wiring your TAP-213.

WARNING
Safety First!
Calculate the maximum possible current in each power wire and common wire. Observe all electrical codes that dictate the maximum current allowed for each wire size.
If the current goes above the maximum ratings, the wiring could overheat, causing serious damage to your equipment.

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. 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 with similar electrical characteristics can be bundled together.
  • Keep input wiring and output wiring separate.
  • It is strongly advised that you label wiring to all devices in the system for easy identification.

**** ATTENTION

This product is intended to be supplied by a Listed Power Unit marked “Class 2” or “LPS” and rated O/P: 24 to 110 VDC, 15 W (max.)

**** ATTENTION

Make sure the external power adapter (includes power cords and plug assemblies) provided with the unit is certified and suitable for use in your country.

Grounding the Moxa TAP-213

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.

Connecting the Power Supplies

The TAP-213 Tough AP series supports two types of power supplies— PWR1 and PWR2. The 4-pin male M12 A-coded connector on the TAP213 front panel is used for the dual power inputs. You can use the metal M12 male 4-pin A-coded screw- type crimp circular connector with pins for power connection included with the product or purchase the M12 power cable (optional) CBL-M12(FF4P)/Open- BK-100-IP68 for lab use/tests.

Pinouts for the power input (4-pin male M12 A-coded) port:

Pin No. Power Input
1 V1+
2 V2+
3 V1-
4 V2-

ATTENTION

Before connecting the TAP-213 to the DC power inputs, make sure the DC power source voltage is stable.

Communication Connections

10/100/1000BaseT(X) Ethernet Port Connection
The TAP-213 has a 10/100/1000BaseT(X) Ethernet port (LAN1 8-pin shielded M12 X-coded connector). The  10/100/1000TX port located on the front panel is used to connect to Ethernet-enabled devices. Most users configure this port for Auto MDI/MDI-X mode, in which case the port’s pinouts are adjusted automatically depending on the type of Ethernet cable used (straight-through or cross-over), and the type of device (NIC-type or HUB/Switch-type) connected to the port.

Pinouts for the 10/100/1000BaseT(X) (M12 8-pin female Xcoded) port

Pin No.1 GbE Conn. FE Conn. PoE Inputs

4 DB- RD- -B, PoE Negative
5 DD+ +D, PoE Negative
6 DD- -D, PoE Negative
7 DC- -C, PoE Positive
8 DC+ +C, PoE Positive

100/1000Base Fiber Port Connection
The TAP-213 has a 100/1000Base socket, which you can use to connect SFP modules. You must use a fiber transceiver with the SFP module for the module to work properly.  The concept behind the fiber port and cable is that, unlike electric signals, optical signals do not require a circuit in order to transmit data. Suppose you want to connect two devices, device 1 and device 2, one of the optical lines is used to transmit data from device 1 to device 2, and the other optical line is used to transmit data from device 2 to device 1, for full-duplex transmission. Remember to connect the Tx (transmit) port of device 1 to the Rx (receive) port of device 2, and the Rx port of device 1 to the Tx port of device 2. If you are using your own cable, we suggest labeling the two sides of a line with the same letter (A-A and B -B, as shown in the example below), or A1-A2 and B1- B2).
