Overview

The ToughNet TN-5508A/5510A series M12 managed Ethernet switches
are designed for industrial applications in harsh environments. The TN
series switches use M12 connectors to ensure tight, robust connections,
and guarantee reliable operation against environmental dist u rbances,
such as vibration and shock. The wide 24 to 110 VDC with dual power
input (non-PoE series) increases the reliability of your communications.

The TN-5508A series includes PoE and non-PoE switches.

• TN-5508A series: 8 Fast Ethernet M12 ports.

• TN-5508A-8PoE series: 8 PoE Fast Ethernet M12 ports.
The TN-5510A series also includes PoE and non-PoE switches.

• TN-5510A series: 8 Fast Ethernet M12 ports, supports additional 2
Gigabit ports located on the bottom of the unit, with or without
bypass function.

• TN-5510A-8PoE series: 8 PoE Fast Ethernet M12 ports, supports
additional 2 Gigabit ports located on the bottom of the unit, with o r
without bypass function.

The -40 to 75°C operating temperature an d IP54 rated waterproof
enclosure allow deployment in harsh environments. The
TN-5508A/5510A series Ethernet switches are compliant with EN
50155/50121-4 (railway applications) requirements, covering operating
temperature, power input voltage, surge, ESD and vibration, mak ing the
switches suitable for a variety of industrial applications

Connecting the Power Supplies

In non-PoE switches, the ToughNet TN-5508A/5510A series switches
support two sets of power input—power input 1 and power input 2. The
M23 6-pin male connector on the TN-5508A/5510A non-PoE switches’
front panel is used for the dual power inputs.

TN-5508A/5510A front panel is used for the two relay outputs. Use a
power cord with an M12 A-coded 5-pin female connector to connect the
relay contacts. You can purchase an M12 power cable from Moxa; the
model number is CBL-M12 (FF5P)/OPEN-100 IP67.

FAULT:

The two sets of relay contacts of the M12 A-coded 5-pin male 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 circu it
remains closed.

Connecting the Data Lines

10/100BaseT(X) Ethernet Port Connection

All TN-5508A/5510A models have 8 10/100BaseT(X) Ethernet ports (M12
D-coded 4-pin female connector). The 10/100TX ports located on the
TN-5508A/5510A front panel are used to connect to Ethernet-enabled
devices. Most users 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 o r cross-over), and the
type of device (NIC-type or HUB/Switch-type) connected to the port.

In what follows, we give pinouts for both MDI (NIC-type) ports and MDI-X
(HUB/Switch-type) ports. We also give cable w iring diagrams for
straight-through and cross-over Ethernet cables.

Bypassing

Bypass Relay Function

The TN-5510A-2GTXBP and TN-5510A-8PoE-2GTXBP models’ two Gigab it
Ethernet ports are equipped with a bypass relay function. When the
switch is operating normally, these two Gigabit ports work in the same
way as the other ports. That is, frame ingr essions are processed and then
forwarded. In the event the switch stops working due to a power failure,
the bypass relay function will be triggered to ensure non-stop data
communication.

The figure below illustrates the bypass relay function. For example, if
Switch B loses power, then the two Gigabit ports will be bypassed through
the relay circuit and the transmission line from Switch A to B and the
transmission line from Switch B to C will interconnect automat ically; this
way there is no stoppage.

The bypass relay function helps the network recover from single-node
failures in a linear topology.

Switch A Switch B Switch C Switch D

With the maximum segment length of category 5 t wisted-pair cable being
100 meters, cable length must be considered when designing a network
that utilizes this function. For example, the total length of the cables from
Switch A to B and from B to C must be no more than 100 meters. This way,
if the two adjacent nodes (switch B and C for example) encounter a power
failure, there will be no stoppage, provided that the total length of the
cables A-to-B, B-to-C, and C-to-D are no more than 100 meters.

The bypass relay function works best for networks with linear topologies.
ToughNet™ switches with bypass relay function are not recommended to
be used in networks that employ ring topologies because network loops
may occur when redundancy protocols such as RSTP or TurboRing™ are
applied.
