Connecting the Relay Outputs
Each TN-5916 router has two sets of relay outputs—relay output 1 and
relay output 2.The M12 A-coded 5-pin male connector on the TN-5916
front panel is used for the two relay outputs. Use a power cord with an
M12 A-coded 5-pin female connector to connect the relay contacts. You
can purchase an M12 power cable from Moxa; the model number is
CBL-M12 (FF5P)/OPEN-100 IP67.

FAULT:
The two sets of relay contacts of the M12 A-coded 5-pin male connector
are used to detect user-configured events. The two wires attached to the
fault contacts form an open circuit when a user-configured event is
triggered. If a user-configured event does not occur, the fault circuit
remains closed.
Connecting the Data Lines
10/100BaseT(X) Ethernet Port Connection
All TN-5916 models have 16 10/100BaseT(X) Ethernet ports (4-pin
shielded M12 connector with D coding). The 10/100TX ports located on
the TN-5916 front panel are used to connect to Ethernet-enabled devices.
Most users configure these ports for Auto MDI/MDI-X mode, in which case
the port’s pinouts are adjusted automatically depending on the type of
Ethernet cable used (straight-through or cross-over), and the type of
device (NIC-type or HUB/Switch/Router-type) connected to the port.
In what follows, we give pinouts for both MDI (NIC-type) ports and MDI-X
(HUB/Switch/Router-type) ports. We also give cable wiring diagrams for
straight-through and cross-over Ethernet cables.
