How do I perform the hardware installation for the MOXA NPORT 5650-8?

Follow these steps to install the hardware for your MOXA NPORT 5650-8:

STEP 1: Attach the Power Adapter

After removing the device from the box, the first step is to attach the power adapter.

STEP 2: Connecting the Power

• AC Power: Connect the 100-240 VAC power cord to the AC connector on the device. The “Ready” LED will show a solid red color until the system is ready, at which time it will change to a green color.

• DC Power: For DC models, connect the power cord to the DC connector. For example, on a 48V model, loosen the screws on the V+ and V- terminals. Connect the power cord’s 48 VDC or -48 VDC wire to the V+ terminal, and the DC Power Ground wire to the V- terminal. Then tighten the terminal block screws. The device can still operate even if the 48V/-48V and DC Power Ground are reversed. The “Ready” LED will show a solid red color until the system is ready, at which time it will change to a green color.

STEP 3: Connect to a Network

Use a standard straight-through Ethernet cable to connect the device to a hub or switch. If you are connecting directly to your computer’s Ethernet port for setup or testing, use a cross-over Ethernet cable.

STEP 4: Connect to a Serial Device

Connect the MOXA NPORT 5650-8’s serial port to your serial device.

Placement Options

You can place the device on a desktop or other horizontal surface.


How do I properly ground the DC-powered MOXA NPORT 5650-8?
