Applications in the industrial environment require constant network availability. In order to avoid failures and thus production tiling times, fault-tolerant network components are increasingly being used.
The 6 port Fast
Ethernet Switch has two fiber optic connections according to 100base FX, which allow the connection to an error tolerant fiber optic ring. A mechanism patented by Microsen's patented mechanism enables a reconfiguration in less than
100 ms (milliseconds). The devices are generally equipped with an interrined network management.
Extensive switch functions can be conveniently configured via web interface/
SNMP/telnet or NMP software. An optional version supports the full power over-the-internet functionality in accordance with IEEE Std. 802.3af on all of the four
RJ-45 participant connections. Intelligent power management monitors the current electricity consumption of connected end devices. This version is fed for the power supply via a redundant entrance with 48 VDC. Managed
