One Platform for Future-proof Modular Networks
As industrial networks continue to evolve, the connectivity requirements for industrial applications grow as well with more devices becoming interconnected. Building a flexible, scalable, and reliable network capable of accommodating the growing scale and diversity of industrial networks is now becoming a major concern. Therefore, businesses are looking for truly versatile solutions that are easy to maintain to ensure smooth operations while keeping costs down.
Introducing the Moxa MDS-G4000 and MDS-G4000-L3 Series of modular switches, offering a mix-and-match Gigabit platform that provides adaptive networking capacity to meet the requirements of numerous constantly changing scenarios through high scalability, flexibility, reliability, and effortless maintenance.
On-demand Network Flexibility
Hundreds
of Port Combinations
The MDS-G4000 product family supports a broad range of media interface modules.
We outfitted each module with 4 ports to allow for even more combinations, letting you scale your network at
a granular level based on your needs. No need to worry about future scalability or changing to different
types of media ports, the MDS-G4000 product family provides a single adjustable platform to plan
ahead.
Ultra-reliable Connectivity
Ultra-rugged Design Built to Last
The MDS-G4000 product family features a rugged
die-cast frames and encapsulated module design that allows the switches to operate reliably in harsh
environments. The passive backplane design is even more reliable than before and eliminates a single point
of failure. Should a module fail, you can simply swap it out instead of having to replace the whole frame,
all without interrupting the operation of the switch. Through rigid testing of both the hardware and the
operation system, we made the MDS-G4000 product family the perfect choice for networks that require
maximized durability and reliability.
Reduce Downtime With Hot-swappable Modules
The hot-swappable modular design of the MDS-G4000 product family translates into minimal downtime. It only
takes a few seconds to replace the media or isolated power modules without having to shut down the switch.
With the robust and hot-swappable MDS-G4000 product family, you can enhance productivity for 24/7
automation.
Next-level Usability
Integrated Management Platform for Large-scale Network
When dealing with a large number of networking devices, it’s now easier than ever to configure and monitor operations in real-time using Moxa’s MXstudio software. Whenever there is an issue with one of the switches, the user-friendly interface quickly helps you pinpoint the problem through the visualized dashboard, drastically reducing the time spent performing on-site troubleshooting.
Ultra-compact Size to Fit in Tight Spaces
The compact size together with 3 mounting options* allow the MDS-G4000
product family to save cabinet space and suit different methods of installation. Convenient, tool-free
module and terminal block installation combined with an innovate quick-release DIN-rail design further
simplify and speed up deployment by eliminating the need for specialized equipment.

Rack-mounting is only available for the MDS-G4028 and MDS-G4028-L3
Applications
Centralized Underground Security Monitoring System
In the open-pit mining industry, automated underground control systems are deployed and integrated to achieve optimal operational efficiency. The MDS-G4000-L3 Series features a rugged, compact housing equipped with a robust DIN-rail mounting kit that fits in limited cabinet spaces and can withstand heavy vibration.
