How to Use EDS-405
In order to give users a convenient and straightforward
means of identifying which of Moxa’s Industrial
Ethernet products support Turbo Ring, we have
designed an easily identifiable Turbo Ring logo. The
catch phrase, “Self-Healing Ethernet,” which appears at
the bottom of the logo, emphasizes Turbo Ring’s
function. That is, Turbo Ring automatically
re-establishes network connectivity when one segment
of the network is disconnected.
NOTE
EDS-405’s ports 4 and 5 are used to form the Turbo Ring. When
forming the Turbo Ring, connect port 4 or 5 of one EDS-405 to
port 4 or 5 of the adjacent EDS-405.
When the number of EDS units in the Turbo Ring is even.
If there are 2N EDS units
(an even number) in the
Turbo Ring, then the
backup segment is one of
the two segments
connected to the (N+1)st
EDS (i.e., the EDS unit
directly opposite the
Master, as shown in the
figure).
