Industrial Ethernet relay module
The WaveShare 8-CH Ethernet Relay Module provides eight independently controlled channels over a wired network link. It communicates using Modbus RTU and Modbus TCP protocols and accepts power from a PoE port compliant with IEEE 802.3 af or a wide-range DC input of 7 to 36 volts. An ABS rail-mount enclosure suits DIN-rail installations in control cabinets.
Replaces basic wired relay boards
Unlike simple relay boards that require direct GPIO or serial wiring, this module moves switching onto the Ethernet backbone, allowing remote operation from SCADA, PLC or custom software. The jump is worthwhile when you need centralized control, MQTT integration or web-browser configuration across an existing network infrastructure without running extra low-voltage cables to every load.
Handles 10 A at 250 VAC or 30 VDC per channel
Each onboard relay is rated for 10 A at 250 VAC or 30 VDC, letting it switch mains appliances or lower-voltage industrial loads directly. Optocoupler isolation and reverse-polarity protection guard the control side from transients on the load side. The module runs out of headroom when load current exceeds the contact rating or when the application demands more than eight switched circuits.

Questions about this item
What rail type fits the ABS case for cabinet mounting?
The module ships in an ABS rail-mount case designed for standard DIN rail installation inside control cabinets.
In which order should I connect PoE and the screw-terminal supply to avoid a wiring error?
Choose one power source only — either the IEEE 802.3 af PoE port or the DC 7-36 V screw terminals — and wire the screw terminals with correct polarity before applying voltage.
When should I plan to replace the onboard relays under a 10 A 250 VAC load?
The relays are rated for 10 A at 250 VAC or 30 VDC; replace them when contact resistance rises or switching becomes unreliable after extended use at rated current.
