Industrial Ethernet switches are robust, reliable
A complete portfolio of real robust and high performance Industrial Ethernet switches ranging from unmanaged device, SNMP managed device to Gigabit Ethernet switches is offered.
Ethernet switch is gigabit rated
Industrial managed gigabit Ethernet switches support gigabit SX and LX and can be remotely configured by web browser, SNMP, Telnet, CLI, or a menu-driven management system.
Ethernet Direct's industrial managed Gigabit Ethernet switches are engineered with state of the art design that supports both gigabit SX and LX or flexible SFP form factor to keep your network secured, reliable and a good choice for scalable backbone construction.
Nowadays, E thernet is a multi-purpose communication protocol that has become a widespread adoption of Industrial Ethernet in many markets.
Factory automation requires the most robust media and infrastructure available and involves specialty protocols layered over Ethernet TCP/IP (Ethernet/IP, TCP etc).
Plant floor applications may also have millisecond timing requirements making deterministic data transmission and processing essential.
Take advantage of the Gigabit capability by choosing Gigabit-enabled industrial Ethernet switches.
Gigabit Ethernet switches are 10 times faster than fast Ethernet switches, and are designed to survive in the toughest industrial environments.
Ethernet Direct Industrial Managed Gigabit switches can insure the quality and performance.
* Ease of Use - Seamless integration with Ethernet and Fast Ethernet, reliable to ensure network connectivity all the time.
