Communication Connections
Each EDS-4014 Series switch has various types of communication
ports:
• RJ45 console port (RS-232 interface)
• USB storage port (type A connector, currently disabled)
• 10/100BaseT(X) Ethernet ports
• 100/1000BaseSFP ports
• 1000/2500BaseSFP slots
• microSD card slot (currently disabled)
Console Port Connection
The EDS device has one RJ45 console port (RS-232), located on the
front panel. Use either an RJ45-to-DB9 (see the cable following wiring
diagrams) to connect the EDS’s console port to your PC’s COM port.
You may then use a console terminal program, such as Moxa PComm
Terminal Emulator, to access the EDS that has a baud rate of 115200.

NOTE
The USB function is currently reserved and may be required in
the future. It should be noted that this port cannot be used for
charging any devices.
10/100BaseT(X) Ethernet Port Connection
The 10/100BaseT(X) ports located on the front panel of the switch are
used to connect to Ethernet-enabled devices. Most users will choose to
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 the following, 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.
