Selection and installation notes

It is widely used by service engineers who need dependable COM ports on a laptop to configure drives, PLCs and analysers; it is powered from the USB bus.

On the practical side, the housing is metal; the stated MTBF is 2,142,392 hrs. Treat the MTBF as a manufacturer prediction under its stated method, not a guarantee for your site.

Please check the operating system driver availability and the -T temperature variant before you place an order. Seven Star LLC supplies as an independent company and prices against the precise code requested.

Related models in the UPort 1250-G2 family

Moxa groups the UPort 1250-G2 with 3 related order codes under one family: UPort 1250-G2, UPort 1250-G2-T, UPort 1250I-G2, UPort 1250I-G2-T. Suffixes such as -T generally mark wide-temperature versions and fiber suffixes (M, S, MM, SS with SC or ST) mark the connector and fiber type, but the order code printed on the datasheet governs.

About brand

Moxa is the Taiwanese maker of industrial networking equipment: Ethernet switches, serial device servers, protocol gateways, media converters, secure routers and remote I/O. It was founded in Taiwan in 1987 and started with serial communication products before moving into industrial Ethernet. It is headquartered in Taipei.

Seven Star LLC is an independent supplier in Muscat. We list Moxa switches, serial servers, gateways and converters, and supply them to control system integrators, utilities, oil and gas and building automation projects in Oman and the GCC by exact model.

The choice between switch types follows the network. An unmanaged switch simply forwards traffic and suits a small, isolated panel. A managed switch adds redundancy protocols (Moxa's Turbo Ring recovers a broken ring in milliseconds), VLANs to separate traffic, port mirroring and alarms, which a SCADA or DCS network needs. The suffix on a Moxa model also matters: "-T" means a wide operating temperature range (typically -40 to 75 °C), which is the safe choice for outdoor cabinets in the Gulf summer. "-MM-SC" or "-S-SC" means multi-mode or single-mode fibre with SC connectors.

Where Moxa products are used

In Oman and the GCC, Moxa equipment connects RTUs, PLCs, meters and protection relays in oil and gas fields, electrical substations, water and wastewater SCADA, transport, and building and energy management systems.

Ordering Moxa products: what we need

Send the complete model including all suffixes (for example EDS-508A-MM-SC-T), the quantity, and for fibre models the fibre type and distance. For gateways, tell us which two protocols need to be linked.
