Overview
The Moxa EDS-P510A-8PoE series switches are Gigabit managed PoE+
Ethernet switches that come standard with eight 10/100BaseT(X),
802.3af (PoE) and 802.3at (PoE+) compliant Ethernet ports and two
combo Gigabit Ethernet ports. The EDS-P510A-8PoE Ethernet switches
provide up to 30 watts of power per PoE+ port in standard mode, and
allow high power output of up to 36 watts for industrial heavy-duty PoE
devices, such as weather-proof IP surveillance cameras with
wipers/heaters, high-performance wireless access points, and rugged IP
phones. The EDS-P510A-8PoE Ethernet switches are highly versatile, and
the SFP fiber ports can transmit data up to 120 km from the device to the
control center with high EMI immunity. The Ethernet switches support a
variety of management functions, including STP/RSTP, TurboRing, Turbo
Chain, PoE power management, PoE device auto-checking, PoE power
scheduling, IGMP, VLAN, QoS, RMON, bandwidth management, and port
mirroring. The EDS-P510A-8PoE series is designed especially for outdoor
harsh environment applications with 3KV surge resistance to keep
continuous reliability of the PoE systems.

Mounting Dimensions (unit = mm)
DIN-Rail Mounting
The aluminum DIN-Rail attachment plate should already be fixed to the
back panel of the EDS-P510A-8PoE when you take it out of the box. If you
need to reattach the DIN-Rail attachment plate to the EDS-P510A-8PoE,
make sure the stiff metal spring is situated towards the top, as shown by
the following figures.
-Rail into the slot just below
unit will snap into place as shown in
the following illustration.
To remove the EDS-P510A-8PoE from the DIN-Rail, simply reverse Steps
