The modular design of the Moxa compact EDS-608 series ethernet switch allows users to combine fibre and copper modules.
Models with an extended operating temperature range of -40 to 75°C are also available.
The EDS-608 series supports several reliable and intelligent functions said to make the ethernet switches suitable for any harsh industrial environment.
Its features and benefits include:
- Up to eight optical fibre connections in a small switch
- Hot swap media modules for continuous operation (available soon)
- Turbo Chain and Turbo Ring (recovery time <20 ms at full load) and RSTP/STP (IEEE 802.1w/D)
- IPv6 Logo Committee certified
- SNMP inform for ensuring reliable event management
- LLDP for automated topology discovery
- DHCP Option 82 for IP address assignment with different policies
- IEEE 1588 precision time protocol for precise time synchronisation of networks
- Modbus/TCP industrial ethernet protocol supported
- IGMP snooping and GMRP for filtering multicast traffic
- Port-based VLAN, IEEE 802.1Q VLAN and GVRP to ease network planning
- QoS (IEEE 802.1p/1Q) and TOS/DiffServ to increase determinism
- Port trunking for optimum bandwidth utilisation
- SNMPv3, IEEE 802.1X, HTTPS and SSH to enhance network security
- SNMPv1/v2c for different levels of network management
- RMON for efficient network monitoring and proactive capability
- Bandwidth management prevents unpredictable network status
- Lock port for only authorised MAC address access
- Port mirroring for online debugging
- Automatic warning by exception through email, relay output
- Digital inputs to integrate sensors and alarms with IP networks
