- Environmentally hardened design
- Redundant ring, fast recovery for surveillance system
- Intelligent alive check for powered device
The Industrial 8-Port Gigabit 802.3af PoE Switch, IGS-10020PT is equipped with rugged IP30 metal case for stable operation in heavy Industrial demanding environments. With IP30 industrial case protection, the IGS-10020PT provides a high level of immunity against electromagnetic interference and heavy electrical surges which are usually found on plant floors or in curb side traffic control cabinets. Being able to operate in wide temperature range from -40 to 75 degrees C, the IGS-10020PT can be placed in almost any difficult environment. The IGS-10020PT also allows either DIN rail or wall mounting for efficient use of cabinet space.
The IGS-10020PT supports redundant ring technology and features strong rapid self-recovery capability to prevent interruptions and external intrusions. It incorporates advanced Redundant Ring technology, Spanning Tree Protocol (802.1w RSTP), and redundant power supply system into customer's industrial automation network to enhance system reliability and uptime in harsh factory environments. The IGS-10020PT also protects customer's industrial network connectivity with switching recovery capability that is used for implementing fault tolerant ring and mesh network architectures. If the Industrial network was interrupted accidentally, the fault recovery times could be less than 50ms to quickly bring the network back to normal operation.
The IGS-10020PT can be configured to monitor connected PD (Powered Device) status in real-time via ping action. Once the PD stops working and responding, the IGS-10020PT will resume the PoE port power and bring the PD back to work. It will greatly enhance the network reliability through the PoE port resetting the PD's power source and reducing administrator management burden.
