100BaseFX Ethernet Port Connection
Remember to connect the Tx (transmit) port of device I to the Rx (receive) port
of device II, and the Rx (receive) port of device I to the Tx (transmit) port of
device II. If you make your own cable, we suggest labeling the two sides of the
same line with the same letter (A-to-A and B-to-B, as shown below, or
A1-to-A2 and B1-to-B2).

Turbo Ring DIP Switch Settings
EDS-505A/508A series are plug-and-play managed redundant Ethernet
switches. The proprietary Turbo Ring protocol was developed by Moxa to
provide better network reliability and faster recovery time. Moxa Turbo Ring’s
recovery time is less than 300 ms (
Turbo Ring
) or 20 ms (
Turbo Ring
V2
) —compared to a 3- to 5-minute recovery time for commercial
switches—decreasing the possible loss caused by network failures in an
industrial setting.
There are 4 Hardware DIP Switches for Turbo Ring on the top panel of
EDS-505A/508A that can help setup the Turbo Ring easily within seconds. If
you do not want to use a hardware DIP switch to setup the Turbo Ring, you can
use a web browser, telnet, or console to disable this function.
NOTE
Please refer to the
Turbo Ring DIP Switch
section and
Using
Communication Redundancy
section in User’s Manual for more
detail information about the settings and usage of
Turbo Ring
and
Turbo Ring V2
.
