Product Features
Technical Overview
This Layer 2 managed switch provides full Gigabit throughput on all eight RJ-45 ports, supporting 10/100/1000Base-T auto-negotiation. The two expansion slots accept Gigabit SFP modules for 1000Base-LX/LH fiber connections, enabling long-distance uplinks or backbone links in fiber-based networks. The switch operates without moving parts thanks to its fanless design, reducing points of failure and making it suitable for dusty or vibration-prone locations.
Network management features include support for IEEE 802.1Q VLANs, 802.1p QoS, 802.3ad Link Aggregation, and 802.1x port-based authentication. Redundancy protocols like STP, RSTP, and MSTP ensure network stability, while the switch can be monitored and configured via PROFINET and Modbus TCP for integration into industrial control systems. Power is delivered through a terminal block accepting 9.6 V DC to 60 V DC inputs, with support for dual power supplies for redundancy.
