Managed Switches
Congurable according to requirements
Managed switches offer extensive control mechanisms for
data distribution and bandwidth management to co-ordinate
and cope with the different requirements of communication
participants in an industrial network. Conguration is either
web-based using a simple and intuitive user interface or via a
serial console.
Powerful and reliable network redundancy
It is particularly important to have network redundancy
to ensure system availability in today’s Industrial Ethernet
infrastructures. This is because in a highly integrated
system, a connection error can lead to machine stoppage
and thus to production losses. To minimise such risks in
a managed Ethernet network, Weidmüller has integrated
high-performance redundancy mechanisms into its managed
switches. This is in addition to the RSTP/STP standard and
port-trunking.
