Connector Description

Power Connector

Connect the power jack (in the package) to the UC-8200 Series’ DC terminal block (located on the top panel), and then connect the power adapter. It takes about 30 seconds for the system to boot up. Once the system is ready, the Power LED will light up. Both models support dual power inputs for redundancy.
Use wires with 16 to 24 AWG (1.318 to 0.205 mm
2
) to connect to V+, V-, and GND. The wire size of the power input and the earthing conductor should be the same.
This product is intended to be supplied by a UL Listed
power adapter or DC power source whose output meets
minimum 1 A, and minimum Tma = 85°C.
The power adapter should be connected to a socket outlet
with earthing connection.
rther information or assistance, contact a Moxa

Grounding the Computer

There is a grounding connector located on the top panel of the computer. Grounding and wire routing help limit the effects of noise due to electromagnetic interference (EMI). Connect to an appropriate grounded metal surface.

Ethernet Ports

The two 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet ports (LAN 1 and LAN 2) use RJ45 connectors.
