With IT/OT convergence on the rise, enhanced network security, high performance, greater reliability, and advanced usability are key to building the next generation of industrial networks that strengthen operational resilience.
• Network security: The EDS-4000/G4000 series Ethernet switches were the world's first to be IEC 62443-4-2 certified by the IECEE, thanks to their integrated enhanced security developed following the rigorous software development lifecycle outlined in the standard. In addition to Moxa's extensive network security portfolio, the company helps lay the foundation for a secure network that safeguards and future-proofs industrial operations.
• Unprecedented performance for massive deployments: With the number of connected devices in industrial operations growing exponentially, the EDS-4000/G4000 series provides multiple interface combinations with up to 14 ports and a range of options including high-speed Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet, 2.5GbE uplinks, and IEEE 802.3bt PoE connectivity. This allows customers to connect more devices, particularly in applications such as intelligent transportation systems that require high-power, high-bandwidth networks.
• Multiple industry certifications: The EDS-4000/G4000 series is certified to NEMA TS2, EN 50121-4, IEC 61850-3/IEEE 16132, DNV2, and ATEX Zone 23, Class I Division 23 standards to meet the needs of a wide variety of industrial applications. The EDS-4000/G4000 series also features Turbo Ring and Turbo Chain for rapid network recovery to ensure uninterrupted operation.
• Advanced Usability: The enhanced web GUI provides a more intuitive way for users to configure and manage the network. The rotating power module offers flexibility to field engineers when installing devices and performing network maintenance. Additionally, LED indicators on both sides of the device help engineers easily identify the status of network devices, simplifying their work.
