Product Features
Technical Overview
This Layer 2 unmanaged switch features eight Gigabit Ethernet ports supporting 1000Base-T over twisted pair cabling, making it compatible with standard network infrastructure. The 16 Gbps switching capacity handles full-duplex traffic across all ports simultaneously, preventing bottlenecks in data-intensive applications.
Power is supplied via an external power adapter (sold separately as model TI-M6024), with dual DC inputs for redundancy. An alarm relay triggers on power failure, providing immediate notification for critical systems. The switch operates on Gigabit Ethernet technology without modular or stack ports, focusing on simplicity and reliability in industrial settings.
Relevant factors for this section include Total Number of Network Ports, Uplink Port, Modular, Media Type Supported. When those points are considered together, they give buyers a clearer picture of how the product is equipped, how it fits into deployment, and what kind of day-to-day role it is meant to support.
