Introduction 

Thank you for using Moxa’s UC-8580 Series computer. The UC-8580 Series computer is a programmable 
communication-centric gateway offering a rich variety of communication interfaces such as Ethernet, serial, 
and digital inputs/outputs. This EN 50155-compliant computer is built for rail applications and comes with 
multiple wireless WAN gateway interfaces making it an ideal choice for building wireless communication 
infrastructure with 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac, and for LTE data collection and transmission. 

This computer runs on the Debian Linux operating system, providing a powerful communication platform 
without generating too much heat, even when loaded with heavy application tasks. In addition, the mSATA 
socket helps you easily expand the storage capacity for large-scale data acquisition. 

The UC-8580 comes in two front-panel models to support two types of antenna connectors (SMA and QMA) 
for wireless modules. 

This chapter describes the product package checklist, product features, and hardware specifications.
