EDS-2018-ML Series

STEP 2:

Mounting EDS on the wall requires 4 screws. Use the
switch, 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 at the right.

NOTE

Before tightening screws into the wall, make sure the screw head
and shank size are suitable by inserting the screw into one of the
keyhole-shaped apertures of the Wall Mounting Plates.

STEP 3:

Once the screws are fixed in the
wall, insert the four screw heads
through the large parts of the
keyhole
then slide EDS downwards, as
indicated. Tighten the four
screws for added stability.

WARNING

1. External metal parts are hot. Take necessary precautions if it
is necessary to touch.

For some applications, you will find it convenient to mount EDS on the
wall, as illustrated below.

STEP 1:

Remove the aluminum DIN-Rail attachment plate from EDS’s rear panel,
and then attach the wall mount plates, as shown in the diagram below.

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.

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 that shares similar electrical characteristics can be
bundled together.

• Keep input wiring and output wiring separated.

• It is strongly advised that you label wiring to all devices in the system
when necessary.

The 10/100/1000BaseT(X) ports located on Moxa EtherDevice Switch’s
front panel are used to connect to Ethernet-enabled devices. Most users
will choose to configure these ports 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.

In the following section, we give pinouts for both MDI (NIC-type) ports
and MDI-X (HUB/Switch-type) ports. We also give cable wiring diagrams

100/1000Base-X Fiber Port

LC-port Pinouts

LC-port to LC-port Cable Wiring

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.

The Fiber ports on the EDS-2010/2018-ML Series are SFP type slots,
which support both 100Base-FX and 1000Base-X speeds. Moxa provides
complete transceiver models for various distance requirements.

The concept behind the LC port and cable is quite straightforward.
Suppose you are connecting devices I and II. Unlike 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).

Redundant Power Inputs

Both power inputs can be connected simultaneously to live DC power
sources. If one power source fails, the other live source acts as a backup,
and automatically supplies all of EDS’s power needs.

Alarm Contact

The Moxa EtherDevice Switch has one Alarm Contact located on the top
panel. For detailed instructions on how to connect the Alarm Contact
power wires to the two middle contacts of the 6-contact terminal block
connector, see the Wiring the Alarm Contact section on page 10. A typical
scenario would be to connect the Fault circuit to a warning light located in
the control room. The light can be set up to switch on when a fault is
detected.

The Alarm Contact has two terminals that form a Fault circuit for
connecting to an alarm system. The two wires attached to the Fault
contacts form an open circuit when (1) EDS has lost power from one of
the DC power inputs, or (2) one of the ports for which the corresponding
PORT ALARM DIP Switch is set to ON is not properly connected. If neither
of these two conditions occurs, the Fault circuit will be closed.

Auto MDI/MDI-X Connection

The Auto MDI/MDI-X function allows users to connect the EDS’s
10/100/1000BaseT(X) ports to any kind of Ethernet device, without
paying attention to the type of Ethernet cable being used for the
connection. This means that you can use either a straight-through cable
or cross-over cable to connect the EDS to Ethernet devices.

Triple Speed Functionality and Switching

The EDS’s 10/100/1000 Mbps RJ45 switched port auto negotiates with
the connected device for the fastest data transmission rate supported by
both devices. The EDS is a plug-and-play device, so software
configuration is not required at installation or during maintenance.

The half/full duplex mode for the RJ45 switched ports is user dependent
and changes (by auto-negotiation) to full or half duplex, depending on
which transmission speed is supported by the attached device.

- 17 -

Switching, Filtering, and Forwarding

Each time a packet arrives at one of the switched ports, a decision is
made to either filter or forward the packet. Packets with source and
destination addresses belonging to the same port segment will be filtered,
constraining those packets to one port, and relieving the rest of the
network from the need to process them. A packet with destination
address on another port segment will be forwarded to the appropriate
port, and will not be sent to the other ports where it is not needed.
Packets that are used in maintaining the operation of the network (such
as the occasional multi-cast packet) are forwarded to all ports. EDS
operates in the store-and-forward switching mode, which eliminates bad
packets and enables peak performance to be achieved when there is
heavy traffic on the network.

Switching and Address Learning

Moxa EDS has an address table that can hold up to 8K node addresses,
which makes it suitable for use with large networks. The address tables
are self-learning, so that as nodes are added or removed, or moved from
one segment to another, EDS automatically keeps up with new node
locations. An address-aging algorithm causes the least-used addresses to
be deleted in favor of newer, more frequently used addresses. To reset
the address buffer, power down the unit and then power it back up.

Auto-Negotiation and Speed Sensing

The EDS’s RJ45 Ethernet ports independently support auto-negotiation
for transmission speeds of 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, and 1000 Mbps, with
operation according to the IEEE802.3 standard. This means that some
nodes could be operating at 10 Mbps, while at the same time, other nodes
are operating at 100 Mbps or 1000 Mbps.

Auto-negotiation takes place when an RJ45 cable connection is made, and
then each time a LINK is enabled. The EDS advertises its capability for
using 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, or 1000 Mbps transmission speeds, with the
device at the other end of the cable expected to advertise similarly.

Depending on what type of device is connected, this will result in
agreement to operate at a speed of 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, or 1000 Mbps.
If an EDS’s RJ45 Ethernet port is connected to a non-negotiating device,
it will default to 10 Mbps speed and half-duplex mode, as required by the
IEEE802.3 standard.
