Industrial Ethernet Switches

• Availability, Redundancy: WAGO’s industrial switches feature a redundant power supply and switchable ring redundancy providing uninterruptible data communication. With a short recovery time of under 20 ms, the Xpress Ring increases your process reliability. The productivity and network availability of your machines and systems is always ensured. In addition to communication link redundancy, a redundant power supply – which can also be monitored using an alarm relay – is integrated into the switches. Even if the power supply fails, communication is not interrupted.

• Extended Security Functions: The managed switches support comprehensive security functions (e.g., MAC Limitation, Port Security). This provides additional data flow control and system protection against cyberattacks via authentication per IEEE 802.1x, IGMP Snooping and broadcast and bandwidth limitation.

• Modular and Expandable: Exchangeable SPF modules adapt switches to various fiber optic cables (FOC) and the associated required distances and fibers. There are SFP modules for multimode and single-mode fiber optic cables for ranges up to 80 km. With the exact combination of copper and fiber optic cables, you are prepared for a multitude of requirements.

• Integrated Function Monitoring: For monitoring and error reporting, the managed switch has configurable functions such as e-mail alarm and SNMP traps. In addition, all switches (except for ECO versions) can monitor individual ports or the power supply via potential-free alarm contact. A DIP switch is used to configure this function.

• Various Operating Modes: The unmanaged switches are ideal for direct plug-and-play use. Managed switches are available for applications where IP filtering or further interpretation of telegrams is required for the application.

• Power over Ethernet (PoE+}: Power supply and data transfer via an ETHERNET cable: Power over Ethernet (PoE +) eliminates the need for a separate power connection for devices connected to the switches via the IP network.
