Communication Connections
Each EDS-510A switch has 3 types of communication port:
y 1 RJ45 console port (RS-232 interface)
y 7 10/100BaseTX Ethernet ports
y 3 gigabit Ethernet ports:
3 10/100/1000BaseTX ports, or 1 10/100/1000BaseTX and 2
1000BaseSFP (mini-GBIC) ports, or 3 1000BaseSFP (mini-GBIC) ports
In this section, we present two types of diagrams—Pinout Diagrams and Cable
Wiring Diagrams—that convey information about the ports and the cables used
to connect the EDS-510A to other devices:
PinoutsThe “Pinouts” diagrams display the type of signal passing through
each of the port’s pins.
Cable WiringThe “Cable Wiring” diagrams present standard cable wiring
schemes for cables used to connect the EDS-510A’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 see
which pin of the connector on the left should be connected to which pin
of the connector on the right.
2. The information to the left of the left vertical dashed lines gives the
pinouts of the relevant EDS-510A port.
3. The information to the right of the right vertical dashed line gives the
pinouts of the opposing device’s port.
NOTE
1. The pin numbers for male DB9 connectors and hole numbers
for female DB9 connectors are labeled on the connector.
2. The pin numbers for 10-pin RJ45 connectors (and ports) are
typically not labeled on the connector (or port). Refer to the
following Pinout and Cable Wiring diagrams to see how
10-pin RJ45 pins are numbered
RS-232 Connection
The EDS-510A has one RS-232 (10-pin RJ45) console port, located on the
top panel. Use either an RJ45-to-DB9 (see the cable following wiring
diagrams) to connect the EDS-510A’s console port to your PC’s COM port.
You may then use a console terminal program, such as MOXA PComm
Terminal Emulator, to access the EDS-510A’s console configuration utility.
