Moxa Managed DSL Ethernet Extender Featured Functions
3-2
Product Overview
MOXA’s IEX series are entry-level managed DSL Ethernet extenders that allow you to extend the point-to-point
Ethernet connections over DSL technology in a cost-effective way. With the IEX series, networks can be set up
without additional fiber upgrades or reconstruction by leveraging existing copper wiring resources. Compliant
with G.SHDSL.bis and VDSL2 standards, the IEX-402-SHDSL series supports data rates of up to 15.3 Mbps
across distances of up to 8 km. The IEX-402-VDSL2 series fulfill high bandwidth requirements of up to 100
Mbps across distances of up to 3 km (transmission data rate depends on cable quality, environmental noise,
and connection distance).
For simple installation, the following configuration steps allow you to effectively reduce deployment time,
simplify maintenance, and enhance manageability.
Wiring the Devices
MOXA’s IEX series have two ports. The upper port is a 10/100BaseT(x) port for connecting to an
Ethernet-enabled device such as a switch or a PLC. The lower port is designed to connect both DSL extenders
through a twisted-pair copper wire.
Getting Started
Step 1: DIP Switch Settings
Both extenders need to have the same DIP switch settings (except when manually configuring CO/CPE
designations).
