FL SWITCH SMCS 8GT
Data Sheet
Description
Smart Managed Compact Switch (SMCS)
The managed compact switch with one Gigabit on all eight
ports enables the cost-effective creation of managed Ether-
net networks in industrial environments with maximum
throughput rates. The compact switches in metal housing
support the use of the optional FL MEM PLUG. The
FL MEM PLUG is a plug-in parameterization memory on
which the entire configuration of the device can be stored so
that it can be transferred to another device, if required.
Properties of the SMCS
– 10/100/1000 Mbps on all ports
– Management via SNMP (Simple Management Network
Protocol), via WBM (web-based management) or via
serial interface (HyperTerminal)
– Redundant supply voltage connection
– Floating alarm contact with adjustable function
– Labeling fields for the device and the individual ports
– Redundancy with Rapid Spanning Tree (RSTP
IEEE 801.1w) and Fast Ring Detection (compatible to
FL SWITCH MM HS and FL SWITCH MCS with Fast
Ethernet)
– Local diagnostic and status indicators
– Optional FL MEM PLUG supported as a changeable
parameterization memory
– LLDP support (IEEE 802.1ab)
- Improved error location detection
- Improved device replacement
- More efficient network configuration
Fields of Application
Typical fields of application for the SMCS range from high-
performance connection to Gigabit office networks through
the function of a powerful distributor in control cabinets to
typical use in Industrial Ethernet applications. A special fea-
ture is the support of PROFINET and Ethernet/IP.
