Panel/Wall Mounting
STEP 1:
Mounting the TN-5508A/5510A to a wall requires 4 screws. Use the
ToughNet switch as a guide to mark the correct positions of the 4 screws.
STEP 2:
Use the 4 screws in the panel
mounting kit. If you would like to use
your own screws, make sure the
screw head is between 6.0 mm
and 7.0 mm in diameter and the
shaft is less than 4.0 mm in
diameter, as shown at the right.
Do not screw the screws in all the way—leave a space of about 2 mm to
allow room for sliding the ToughNet switch between the wall and the
screws.
NOTE
Before tightening the screws into the wall, make sure the screw
head and shaft size are suitable by inserting the screw through
one of the keyhole-shaped apertures of the ToughNet switch.

- 10 -
STEP 3:
Once the screws are fixed in the wall, hang the ToughNet switch on the 4
screws through the large opening of the keyhole-shaped apertures, and
then slide the switch downwards. Tighten the four screws for added
stability.
NOTE
To provide greater protection from vibrations and shocks, use
screws with shaft diameter between 6.0 mm and 7.0 mm, and fix
the ToughNet switch onto the wall directly through the large
opening of the keyhole-shaped apertures.
DIN-Rail Mounting (optional)
With the optional DIN-Rail
mounting kit DK-DC50131 (must
be purchased separately), you can
mount the TN-5508A/5510A on a
35mm DIN-Rail.
STEP 1:
Use 12 screws (6 screws per plate)
to attach the two DIN-Rail
attachment plates to the rear panel
of the switch.
STEP 2:
If the spring-loaded bracket is locked in place, push the recessed button
to release it. Once released, you should feel some resistance from the
spring as you slide the bracket up and down a few millimeters in each
direction.
STEP 3:
Position the ToughNet switch onthe
DIN-Rail, tilting to hook clamps over
the top edge of the rail.
STEP 4:
Swing the switch down fully onto
the DIN-Rail, until both clamps
completely latch.

- 11 -
To remove the Moxa ToughNet Switch from the DIN-Rail, use a
screwdriver to pull out the two spring-loaded brackets from the bottom
until they are fixed in the “locked” position. Then reverse Step 3 and 4
above.
Wiring Requirements
WARNING
Turn the power off before disconnecting modules or wires. The
correct power supply voltage is listed on the product label. Check
the voltage of your power source to make sure you are using the
correct voltage. Do NOT use a voltage greater than what is
specified on the product label.
These devices must be supplied by a SELV source as defined in
the Low Voltage Directive 2006/95/EC and 2004/108/EC.
ATTENTION
Safety First!
Be sure to disconnect the power cord before installing and/or
wiring your Moxa switch.
This device has UL508 approval. Use copper conductors only,
75°C, and tighten to 4.5 pound-inches. For use in pollution
degree 2 environments.
ATTENTION
Safety First!
Observe all electrical codes dictating the maximum current
allowable for each wire size. If the current goes above the
maximum ratings, the wiring could overheat, causing serious
damage to your equipment.

- 12 -
Please read and follow these guidelines:
•Use separate paths to route wiring for power and devices. If power
wiring and device wiring paths must cross, make sure the wires are
perpendicular at the intersection point.
NOTE: Do not run signal or communications wiring and power wiring
through the same wire conduit. To avoid interference, wires with
different signal characteristics should be routed separately.
•You can use the type of signal transmitted through a wire to
determine which wires should be kept separate. The rule of thumb is
that wiring that shares similar electrical characteristics can be
bundled together.
•Keep input wiring and output wiring separated.
•It is strongly advised that you label wiring for all devices in the system
when necessary.
Grounding the ToughNet Switch
Grounding and wire routing help limit the effects of noise due to
electromagnetic interference (EMI). Run the ground connection from the
grounding screw to the grounding surface prior to connecting devices.
ATTENTION
This product is intended to be mounted to a well-grounded
mounting surface such as a metal panel.
Connecting the Power Supplies
In non-PoE switches, the ToughNet TN-5508A/5510A series switches
support two sets of power input—power input 1 and power input 2. The
M23 6-pin male connector on the TN-5508A/5510A non-PoE switches’
front panel is used for the dual power inputs.

connector.
Connecting the Relay Outputs
Each TN-5508A/5510A switch has two sets of relay outputs—relay output
1 and relay output 2.The M12 A-coded 5-pin male connector on the
TN-5508A/5510A 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.
Pinouts for the relay output port on TN-5508A/5510A.
N.C.: Not connected
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-5508A/5510A models have 8 10/100BaseT(X) Ethernet ports (M12
D-coded 4-pin female connector). The 10/100TX ports located on the
TN-5508A/5510A 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-type) connected to the port.
In what follows, we give pinouts for both MDI (NIC-type) ports and MDI-X
(HUB/Switch-type) ports. We also give cable wiring diagrams for
straight-through and cross-over Ethernet cables.

ATTENTION
The protective cover must be fixed properly to ensure IP54
protection. Use a torque wrench set to a torque of 4 kgf-m when
tightening the screws. Note that applying a larger torque may
damage the plastic protective cover.
Bypass Relay Function
The TN-5510A-2GTXBP and TN-5510A-8PoE-2GTXBP models’ two Gigabit
Ethernet ports are equipped with a bypass relay function. When the
switch is operating normally, these two Gigabit ports work in the same
way as the other ports. That is, frame ingressions are processed and then
forwarded. In the event the switch stops working due to a power failure,
the bypass relay function will be triggered to ensure non-stop data
communication.
The figure below illustrates the bypass relay function. For example, if
Switch B loses power, then the two Gigabit ports will be bypassed through
the relay circuit and the transmission line from Switch A to B and the
transmission line from Switch B to C will interconnect automatically; this
way there is no stoppage.
The bypass relay function helps the network recover from single-node
failures in a linear topology.

- 17 -
With the maximum segment length of category 5 twisted-pair cable being
100 meters, cable length must be considered when designing a network
that utilizes this function. For example, the total length of the cables from
Switch A to B and from B to C must be no more than 100 meters. This way,
if the two adjacent nodes (switch B and C for example) encounter a power
failure, there will be no stoppage, provided that the total length of the
cables A-to-B, B-to-C, and C-to-D are no more than 100 meters.
The bypass relay function works best for networks with linear topologies.
ToughNet™ switches with bypass relay function are not recommended to
be used in networks that employ ring topologies because network loops
may occur when redundancy protocols such as RSTP or TurboRing™ are
applied.
