Communication Connections
All models of EDS-508 have one RJ45 console port (RS-232 interface),
and between six and eight 10/100BaseTX Ethernet ports. Some models
also have two 100BaseFX (SC-type connector) fiber ports.
In this section, we present two types of diagrams — Pinout Diagrams and
Cable Wiring Diagrams — to convey information about the ports and the
cables used to connect MOXA EDS-508 to other devices:
Pinouts The meaning of the “Pinouts” diagrams is
straightforward— the diagrams simply display the
type of signal passing through each of the port’s
pins.
Cable
Wiring
Diagrams labeled “Cable Wiring” present standard
cable wiring schemes for cables used to connect
MOXA EtherDevice Server’s ports to other devices.
These diagrams display three pieces of information:
1. When building your own cable, refer to the
“pin-to-pin” Cable Wiring information
displayed between the two vertical dashed lines
to learn which pin of the left connector should
be connected to which pin of the right
connector.
2. The information to the left of the left vertical
dashed lines gives the pinouts of the relevant
MOXA EtherDevice Server port.
3. The information to the right of the right vertical
dashed line gives the pinouts of the opposing
device’s port.
