Overview

The Moxa EDS-205A-M-ST-T is a 5-port unmanaged industrial Ethernet switch in the EDS-205A Series, with four 10/100BaseT(X) RJ45 copper ports and one 100BaseFX multi-mode (ST) fibre port reaching 5 km. Built for harsh industrial, maritime, and rail deployments, the switch features an aluminium IP30 housing, DIP-switchable Quality of Service and Broadcast Storm Protection, and a comprehensive certifications stack spanning hazardous locations (ATEX, IECEx, Class I Division 2), maritime (DNV, LR, ABS, NK), rail (EN 50121-4), and traffic control (NEMA TS2). The wide-temperature -40 to 75 deg C rating suits outdoor enclosures, rail wayside applications, maritime deployments, and harsh industrial environments.

Key Features

  • 4 x 10/100BaseT(X) RJ45 copper ports with auto MDI/MDI-X and auto-negotiation
  • 1 x 100BaseFX multi-mode (ST) fibre port, typical reach 5 km
  • IEEE 802.3 / 802.3u / 802.3x compliant
  • Store-and-forward switching, 2K MAC address table, 768-kbit packet buffer
  • DIP-switchable Quality of Service (QoS) – prioritises IEEE 802.1p-tagged traffic (note: enabling QoS also enables multicast filtering which blocks LLDP / PROFINET PTCP-Delay traffic)
  • DIP-switchable Broadcast Storm Protection (BSP) – rate-limits broadcast floods
  • Aluminium housing, IP30 rated
  • Dimensions 30 x 115 x 70 mm; weight 175 g
  • Single 12/24/48 VDC power input (9.6 to 60 VDC operating range) on removable 4-contact terminal block; 290 mA max
  • Overload current protection and reverse polarity protection
  • Operating temperature: -40 to 75 deg C (-40 to 167 deg F)
  • Hazardous locations: ATEX, IECEx, Class I Division 2
  • Maritime: DNV, LR, ABS, NK
  • Rail: EN 50121-4; Traffic control: NEMA TS2
  • Safety: UL 61010-1, EN 62368-1
  • EMC: EN 55032/35
  • MTBF: 3,293,423 hrs
  • DIN-rail mount
  • 5-year manufacturer warranty

Applications

  • Industrial Ethernet cell aggregation with fibre uplink to a plant backbone
  • Inter-building Ethernet links where copper cannot reach and fibre isolation is preferred
  • Maritime installations on vessels or offshore platforms (DNV, LR, ABS, NK certified)
  • Rail wayside cabinets and signalling equipment (EN 50121-4)
  • Traffic-control cabinets and ITS equipment (NEMA TS2)
  • Hazardous-location installations in ATEX Zone 2 / IECEx / Class I Division 2 atmospheres
  • Remote outdoor enclosures requiring wide-temp operation (specify -T variant)
  • Utility substation SCADA aggregation
