Module system and key specifications

Module category represents model, core parameters support, speed key characteristics

The basic modules MS2108-2 (MS2000), MS3124-4 (MS3000), and MS4128-5 (MS4000) support media module expansion, with some supporting Power MICE 10/100/1000 Mbit/s industrial stability, and are compatible with multiple expansion modules

Media module (MS2000) MM2-4TX1, MM2-2FXM3/2TX1 4 RJ45 ports/2 MTRJ+2 RJ45 ports 10/100 Mbit/s basic industrial scene adaptation, power consumption 0.8W~6.8W

Media module (MS3000) MM3-2AUI, MM3-4FXM4 2 AUI interfaces/4 ST interfaces 10/100 Mbit/s support IEEE 1588 PTP protocol (RT model), some with Confocal Coating

Media module (MS4000) MM4-4TX/SFP, MM4-2TX/SFP 4 RJ45+4 SFP slots/2 RJ45+2 SFP slots 1000 Mbit/s SFP module and TP port are mutually exclusive, and inserting SFP automatically disables the corresponding TP port

Expansion module MB20 (formerly MB-2T) expands 2 media module slots – supports live installation, compatible with basic modules such as MS201600, MS3124-4, etc

Functional module PoE module (MM22-T1T1T1T1) with 4 RJ45 ports, supporting IEEE 802.3af 10/100 Mbit/s 48V DC power supply, powered by Twisted Pair cable to the terminal

Functional module digital I/O module (MM24) with 4 digital inputs and 4 digital outputs – connects various actuators in industrial scenarios

SFP optical module M-FAST-SFP (Fast Ethernet), M-SFP (Gigabit Ethernet) multi-mode/single-mode optional, LC interface 100/1000 Mbit/s transmission distance 0~176km (depending on model), laser level 1

Installation and operation specifications

General Installation Principles

Supports hot swapping: Media modules, MB20 expansion modules, and SFP modules can all be installed/removed during device operation

Tool requirements: It is prohibited to insert sharp objects (such as thin screwdrivers, wires, etc.) into the interior of the equipment to avoid electric shock

Personnel qualifications: Electrical installation related work must be operated by professionally trained personnel

Key module installation steps

Media module: Remove the MICE device interface cover → Insert the module → Tighten the 4 corner screws → Check the switch settings → Connect the signal line

SFP module: Remove slot cover → Close locking device and insert module → Confirm buckle locking (only use HIRSCHMANN original SFP)

MB20 expansion module: Loosen the screws on both sides of the base module → Remove the side cover → Dock the guide rail to the base module → Retighten the screws

Special requirements for PoE modules

Power supply: Use HIRSCHMANN RPS60/48V EEC power supply, output power<100W, current<2A

Wiring: 3-core terminal block, cable length<3m, wire diameter suitable for 1.5A current

Terminal: Only connect IEEE 802.3af compatible devices, using 4 pairs of Twisted Pair cables
