Description

The Moxa EDS-G205A Series is a line of unmanaged industrial Gigabit Ethernet switches designed for high-bandwidth applications. These switches provide a simple and robust solution for network expansion in demanding environments. The series includes models with a combination of 10/100/1000BaseT(X) RJ45 copper ports and 100/1000Base SFP slots, providing both standard copper connectivity and flexible long-distance fiber-optic links.

A notable feature of this series is its unmanaged nature, which allows for effortless, plug-and-play installation without the need for any software configuration. However, certain models offer user-configurable DIP switches for enabling basic Quality of Service (QoS) and Broadcast Storm Protection, providing a level of control beyond that of a truly “dumb” switch. The switches are built for durability with an IP30-rated metal housing and a wide operating temperature range of -40 °C to 75 °C for the wide-temperature models, ensuring reliable operation in harsh industrial conditions. They also support redundant dual power inputs with a wide voltage range (12 to 57 VDC), ensuring network uptime even with power fluctuations or failures. The EDS-G205A series is a cost-effective and powerful solution for industrial networks that require high bandwidth and media conversion capabilities.
