Description
The Moxa EDS-510A-1GT2SFP is a high-performance, 10-port redundant managed industrial Ethernet switch engineered for harsh, data-intensive automation environments. It features 7 standard 10/100BaseT(X) ports alongside 3 combo Gigabit ports (1 fixed 10/100/1000BaseT(X) port and 2 100/1000BaseSFP slots), making it ideal for forming high-speed industrial network backbones. With integrated network redundancy technologies like Turbo Ring and Turbo Chain, this switch ensures maximum system uptime and zero packet loss in critical industrial operations.
⚙️ Technical Specifications
- 📐 Dimensions: 80.2 mm x 135 mm x 105 mm (Rugged IP30 aluminum housing)
- ⚖️ Weight: 1.17 kg
- 🌍 Country of Origin: Taiwan
🏭 Applications
- Wind power, solar farms, and smart grid utility sub-stations
- High-bandwidth maritime and offshore vessel network backbones
- Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) and roadside traffic monitoring
- Plant-wide Distributed Control Systems (DCS) and SCADA data aggregation
🛠️ Usage Instructions
- Verify that the supply voltage matches the dual redundant input parameters (12–45V DC) before switching on power.
- Use the integrated web console, serial CLI, or Moxa’s MXview network management software to configure advanced managed features like VLANs and QoS.
- Ensure compatible SFP fiber optic transceiver modules are used in the Gigabit slots to maintain optimal optical budget margins.
- Test the hardware relay output functionality regularly to ensure local alarm generation is active for power or port connection failures.
🔧 Mechanical Installation Requirements
- Fixing Method: Rigidly snaps onto standard 35 mm DIN rails, or can be surface wall-mounted inside a panel box using specialized optional metal attachment plates.
- Space Clearance: Maintain a minimum clear perimeter of 50 mm above and below the device to permit unhindered ventilation airflow through the casing slots.
- Heat Dissipation: Features an advanced fanless thermal design. To avoid overheating, the ambient temperature inside the closed cabinet enclosure must not exceed 60°C (or up to 75°C for “T” wide-temperature variants).
🔌 Electrical Wiring Guide
- Terminal Definitions: * Terminals V1+, V1-: Primary 12–45V DC Power Input
- Terminals V2+, V2-: Backup/Redundant 12–45V DC Power Input
- Terminals Fault (1, 2): Digital Relay Output Contact (Dry Contact, 1A @ 24V DC)
- Grounding Screw: M3 threaded grounding post located on top of the metal enclosure
- Wire Gauge: Implement 0.75 mm² to 1.5 mm² (18 to 16 AWG) copper wire for the primary power inputs and the discrete alarm contact loop.
- Grounding Norms: Connect the top-panel chassis grounding screw directly to the cabinet’s single-point earth rail using a short, low-impedance conductor to maximize protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and lightning surges.
📡 Communication Configuration
- IP Address: Factory default static management network setup is: 192.168.127.253 (Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0).
- Station ID: Not applicable for standard network layer routing. The unit uses standard hardware MAC addresses alongside software-defined Device Names for tracking within industrial networks.
- Baud Rate: The RS-232 serial console port utilizes a fixed configuration of 115200 bps, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, and no parity for initial physical command-line management setup.
❓ Frequently Asked Questions (Q&A)
- Q: What does a solid amber light on the “Master” panel LED mean?
- A: This indicates that the switch has been successfully configured as the Ring Master of a Moxa Turbo Ring network topology and is monitoring the redundant link status.
- Q: How does the redundant power input transfer operate during a failure?
- A: The EDS-510A-1GT2SFP features seamless hardware-level power redundancy. If the primary power line drops out, the secondary supply automatically carries the complete current load instantly without rebooting the switch.
- Q: How can I reset the switch to factory default settings if the password is lost?
- A: Locate the recessed “Reset” button on the top panel. Use a pointed object (like a straightened paper clip) to press and hold the button down for at least 5 seconds to wipe the internal NVRAM back to standard presets.
