Therefore, they can be fully integrated into automation systems such as TIA (Totally Integrated Automation) or CODESYS.
Since the switch supports LLDP (Link Layer Discovery Protocol), it is automatically recognized by programmable logic controllers and can be seamlessly integrated into the automation system using GSDML (General Station Description Markup Language) files, just like I/O devices.
Architecture: Point-to-Point, Linear Bus, Redundant Ring, or Star.
Industrial Ethernet Switch – Managed or Unmanaged.
The e-light series features multiple unmanaged switching ports for 10/100 Mbps RJ45 Ethernet and up to three optical ports that support POF, HCS, multimode, or single-mode fiber. Other features include auto-negotiation, MDX/MDIX, and redundant power supply. They can span distances of up to 40 km between two fiber optic systems. LED indicators signal fault conditions.
