This manual introduces the basic functions, installation methods and precautions of the EDS-205A/208A series industrial Ethernet switches.
This guide details the hardware installation of Moxa's EDS-205A/208A industrial Ethernet switches, supporting 5 and 8-port configurations with 10/100M auto-sensing. It covers mounting via DIN-rail or wall brackets, power input wiring, DIP switch settings for broadcast storm protection, and LED indicators. The switches feature IP30 metal housings and support wide temperature ranges for harsh environments.
Installation steps include attaching DIN-rail brackets, mounting on walls with specific screw sizes, wiring redundant AC/DC power inputs, and configuring DIP switches. Safety warnings emphasize turning off power before wiring and using SELV power sources. LED indicators show power and link status for each port. This manual is written in Chinese.
| Ports | 5 or 8 ports |
|---|---|
| Standards | IEEE 802.3, IEEE 802.3u, IEEE 802.3x |
| Speed | 10/100M |
| Power Input | 12/24/48 VDC (9.6 to 60 VDC)/18 to 30 VAC |
| Operating Temperature | -10 to 60°C or -40 to 75°C |

You can mount it via DIN-rail or wall brackets. For DIN-rail, insert the rail into the slot below the stiff metal spring. For wall mounting, attach wall plates and use 4 screws with specific head and shaft sizes.
It supports 12/24/48 VDC (9.6 to 60 VDC) or 18 to 30 VAC, with dual redundant inputs that can be connected simultaneously.
Use the DIP switches on the outer panel; enabling it sets the DIP switch to ON, disabling it sets it to OFF.
The P1 LED (amber) indicates whether power is being supplied to power input P1: on = power supplied, off = no power.
