Industrial L2/L3 Switch with management, PoE and PoE+ and DMS

This series includes high quality switches of robust construction for the implementation of powerful 10, 100 and 1000MBit/s Ethernet ring structures as per IEEE802.x. All eight copper ports are with Power over Ethernet PoE and PoE+. These switches are especially suitable for video networks. By way of two or more connections, the switch enables the construction of one or more fault-tolerant optical fiber rings.

In case of an interruption the rings close automatically in less than 50ms, which improves the availability of the system. There are four SFP slots for the backbone for 100/1000BaseSX/LX/ZX which can be implemented for multimode or singlemode. The switches can also be used as single devices, for point-to-point connections or as connection modules. The extended possibilities of the management software enable the use of the switch in high demanding network systems. Easy top hat rail mounting. Normed plugs (RJ45 resp. LC) ensure all electrical and optical connections.

Active monitoring of the camera

Switch-powered cameras by PoE are constantly monitored. In case of a camera failure the switch automatically restarts the camera. If this is not possible the switch alarms by SNMP.

Active monitoring PoE-supply

The switch alarms by SNMP in case of sudden excessive power consumption by a defect camera for example.

Active management of the PoE-performance

The PoE-ports can be started by time intervals so as to prevent an overload of the PoE power supplies.

Further video-friendly features:

Extra high backplane performance for a smooth video transmission with all ports assigned. Support of Jumbo Frames up to 9600Bytes by 100MBit/s. MAC-address restriction ensures port security.

This switch disposes of an integrated network monitoring and control system which gives the user a good overview over the whole network in an easy way. This DMS-system has the following qualities:

Graphical network map

The network map gives a quick overview over all switches and terminal devices such as IP-cameras or servers indicating the IP-address, type of device and equipment. Plans and maps can be saved as background pictures and thus enable the user to access to certain devices without knowledge of the entire IP-structure.

Device search

This function enables the access to a specific device also in large networks. Recently added devices, as per example a new IP-camera, are immediately displayed and thus enable a direct access.

Data traffic display

Graphical display of data traffic per port in a time axis.

Error handling and security

Network diagnosis between master switch and terminal devices. Protective mechanisms such as data flow restriction guarantee an effective protection against inadvertent access. IEEE802.3ah and IEEE802.1ag provide tools for structuring of networks.
