Cybersecurity Right in the Switch

Industrial Managed Switch with Built-in Encryption Feature

The Benefits for You

  • Increase network security without in-depth IT knowledge

  • Network diagnostics via Modbus® or SNMP

  • Potential-free communication with SFP modules

  • Industrial managed switches with hardware-level encryption (MAC Security)

  • Retrofit secure data transmission in existing networks

  • Authentication in the network

At a Glance

  • Real-time encryption (MACsec) at line speed through hardware-based “Media Access Control Security” encryption (IEEE 802.1 AE, MACsec)
  • Easy retrofitting/integration into existing applications (protocol-independent – Modbus TCP, BACnet®, PROFINET RT etc.)
  • Optional authentication of network subscribers (IEEE 802.1X and RADIUS) allows you to control access to the network.
  • Compact control cabinet dimensions (45 × 90 × 110 mm) save space and make use in existing systems easier.
  • Easy configuration and commissioning, even without specialists
  • Network segmentation with Virtual Local Area Networks (VLANs)
  • Especially high network redundancy and availability with “Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol” (RSTP)
