Moxa 1 Port RS-232/422/485 Ethernet Serial Device Server: Surge Protection and Iecex Certification, -40°C to +75°C

The NPort IA5000A series device servers are designed for connecting industrial automation serial devices, such as PLCs, sensors, meters, motors, drives, barcode readers, and operator displays. The device servers are built solid with a metal housing, screw connectors, and provide full surge protection. The NPort IA5000A series device servers are extremely user-friendly, making simple and reliable serial-to-Ethernet solutions possible.

The NPort IA5000A series device servers each have two Ethernet ports that can be used as Ethernet switch ports. One port connects directly to the network or server, and the other port can be connected to another NPort IA device server or another Ethernet device. The dual Ethernet ports help reduce wiring costs by eliminating the need to connect each device to a separate Ethernet switch.

The NPort IA5000A series device servers have two power inputs that can be connected simultaneously to live DC power sources. If one power source fails, the other source takes over automatically. Redundant power inputs help ensure uninterrupted operation of your device server.

The built-in relay output can be used to alert administrators when the network is down, when power failure occurs or when there is a change in the DCD or DSR serial signals. An e-mail warning can also be issued when an abnormality is detected. These functions are valuable tools that enable maintenance engineers to react promptly to emergency situations.

Moxa’s leading-edge surge immunity solution, which is applied to the NPort IA5000A’s serial, power, and Ethernet lines, is tested and proven compliant with IEC 61000-4-5. This advanced surge protection provides a robust serial-to-Ethernet solution that can protect electrical devices from voltage spikes and resist electrical interference, such as in oil, gas, and power automation applications.

to ensure safe and reliable operation in industrial environments, the NPort IA5000A device servers have obtained various industrial certifications, including an IP30 rating for mechanical protection and UL508 safety certification for industrial control equipment. In addition, these device servers are UL/cUL listed (for Class1, Division 2, Groups A,B,C,D), ATEX Class1 Zone 2, and IECEx compliant for use in hazardous locations.
