B&B Electronics Elinx ESW500 series Industrial managed Ethernet switches provide powerful functionality in an IP30 DIN-rail or panel mount package. The switches are designed for industrial applications and engineered with managed features such as IGMP Snooping, Port Based VLAN, 802.1Q Tag VLAN, STP, RSTP, Web Based Management, Ingress Packet Filtering, and Egress Rate Control.
The Elinx™ family of Managed DIN rail mount Ethernet switches have been designed to meet industrial and commercial communication requirements. Switch configurations range from 8 ports to 16 ports featuring all RJ45 copper to RJ45 copper with multi mode, single mode, and or SFP Gigabit ports. RingOn Technology Two ports can be used for network redundancy by implementing RingOn technology providing a rapid recovery system for industrial networks. If any part of the ring disconnects the network communications will automatically be restored. Web-based Management Each switch has an embedded HTML web site residing in flash memory, offering advanced management features allowing users to manage the switch from anywhere on the network via a standard web browser. VLAN Configuration A Virtual LAN (VLAN) is a logical network grouping that limits the broadcast domain. This allows you to isolate network traffic so that members of a VLAN will only receive traffic from other members of the same VLAN. Creating a VLAN from a switch is the logical equivalent of reconnecting a group of network devices to another Layer 2 switch. However, since it is a virtual network, the network devices remain connected to the same switch physically. Both port-based and 802.1Q (tagged-based) VLAN are supported.
