Lean Managed Switches – Easy Network Diagnostics in the Control Cabinet

The new lean managed switches: for greater network availability and reliability.

In the age of Industry 4.0, Ethernet-based bus systems offer a powerful communication infrastructure in control cabinet manufacturing for robust, reliable installation of networks. Ethernet switches have proven especially efficient – powerful interfaces that receive data in a packet, process it and pass it on to multiple devices in a local area network.

WAGO’s portfolio of switches offers a variety of products to help control cabinet manufacturers cope with the increase in networking in the industrial and building sectors. All new: lean managed switches, whose selling points include easy DIN-rail installation and intuitive configuration – no special IT skills required. These switches increase the reliability and availability of the application and offer a range of functions, particularly for network diagnostics.
