Description

The Moxa EDS-G308-2S-SC is an unmanaged, industrial-grade Gigabit Ethernet switch designed for high-bandwidth and long-distance network applications. It is part of the EDS-G308 series, which offers a powerful and economical solution for industrial networks. This specific model provides a total of 8 ports, with 6 x 10/100/1000BaseT(X) RJ45 copper ports and 2 x 100/1000Base SFP slots. The SFP slots are compatible with various SFP modules, and the “-2S-SC” suffix indicates it is commonly paired with single-mode fiber with SC connectors, allowing for network expansion over long distances (e.g., up to 40 km).

The switch’s unmanaged design ensures a simple plug-and-play installation without any software configuration. However, it incorporates essential industrial features such as a relay output alarm for power failures and port breaks. It also supports user-configurable DIP switches for features like Broadcast Storm Protection, Jumbo Frame support (up to 9.6 KB), and IEEE 802.3az Energy-Efficient Ethernet. The EDS-G308-2S-SC is built for extreme reliability with its rugged IP30-rated metal housing and support for redundant dual DC power inputs (9.6 to 60 VDC). It is available in models with a standard operating temperature range and a wide-temperature range (-40°C to 75°C), and it is certified for use in hazardous locations (Class I, Div. 2/ATEX Zone 2), making it a versatile and dependable choice for a variety of industrial environments
