6 ports Managed switch, 4 x RJ45 10/100/1000/2500Mbps, 2 x SFP slot 1000/2500Mbps. 9-48VDC, 24VAC.

2.5Gbps Copper Ports and 10Gbps Fiber Ports Deliver Cost Effective High-Speed Networking. The switch is among the first Industrial-grade, Multi-Gigabit Managed Ethernet Switch that features four 2.5GBASE-T ports, two 10GBASE-X SFP+ ports and Layer 3 IP routing in a rugged IP30 metal case for operating in remote areas stably within the temperature range from -40 to 75 degrees C.

With Multi-Gigabit Ethernet support, the switch allows the use of the existing Cat5e and Cat6 cabling for higher speed connection but does not incur expenses and complexity brought by additional infrastructure. Once needed, the 10GBASE-X SFP+ ports can also offer even higher transmission speed and greater distance networking capability.

The switch can be operated at the speed of 2.5Gbps over copper or fiber-optic cabling which helps to accelerate the performance of large data transmission. The 2.5GBASE-T copper interfaces support 4-speed (2.5G/1G/100/10) auto-negotiation, and 2.5Gbps data transmission with the existing Cat5e and Cat6 UTP cabling, meaning the speed can be increased without extra costs. It can definitely give you the speed you demand and its Plug and Play makes installation effortless. 

The fiber-optic 10GBASE-X SFP+ interfaces support triple speeds, 10GBASE-SR/LR, 2500BASE-X and 1000BASE-SX/LX, meaning the administrator now can flexibly choose the suitable SFP/SFP+ transceiver according to the transmission distance or the transmission speed required to extend the network efficiently. The switch provides broad bandwidth and powerful processing capacity and supports redundant ring technology and features strong, rapid self-recovery capability to prevent interruptions and external intrusions. It incorporates advanced ITU-T G.8032 ERPS (Ethernet Ring Protection Switching) technology, Spanning Tree Protocol (802.1s MSTP), and redundant power input system into customer’s industrial automation network to enhance system reliability and uptime in harsh factory environments. In a simple ring network, the recovery time of data link can be as fast as 10ms. 

With the supported Modbus TCP/IP protocol, the switch can easily integrate with SCADA systems, HMI systems and other data acquisition systems in factory floors. It enables administrators to remotely monitor the industrial Ethernet switch’s operating information, port information, communication status, and DI and DO status, thus easily achieving enhanced monitoring and maintenance of the entire factory.

1588 Time Protocol for Industrial Computing Networks. The switch is ideal for telecom and carrier Ethernet applications, supporting MEF service delivery and timing over packet solutions for IEEE 1588 and synchronous Ethernet. 

The switch supports Digital Input and Digital Output on its front panel. This external alarm enables users to use Digital Input to detect and log external device status (such as door intrusion detector), and send event alarm to the administrators. The Digital Output could be used to inform the administrator of port status including link down, link up or power failure.
