Overview
The Moxa EtherDevice™ EDS-316 Series of 16-port smart Ethernet
switches provides an economical solution for your Ethernet connections.
As an added bonus, the built-in smart alarm function helps system
maintainers monitor the health of your Ethernet network.
EDS-316 has a wide operating temperature range of -40 to 75°C, and is
designed to withstand a high degree of vibration and shock. The rugged
hardware design makes EDS-316 Series perfect for ensuring that your
Ethernet equipment can withstand critical industrial applications, such as
in hazardous locations (Class 1 Division 2/ Zone 2), and complies with
FCC, TÜV, UL, and CE Standards.
Throughout this Hardware Installation Guide, we use EDS as an
abbreviation for Moxa EtherDevice Switch:
EDS = Moxa EtherDevice Switch
