What is an industrial switch? What are the functions of an industrial switch
In recent years, industrial switches have been widely used in China, but the competition in the market of industrial switches is extremely fierce. Many manufacturers specializing in the production and development of switches are used in China alone. In the competition with foreign switch brands, domestic switch brands have more and more local advantages. So, what is an industrial switch? Let's take a look!
What is an industrial switch:
Industrial switch, also known as industrial Ethernet switch, is used in the field of industrial control Ethernet switch equipment. Because the network standard is open, widely used, can adapt to low temperature and high temperature, strong electromagnetic interference resistance, salt spray resistance, strong shock resistance. Its use of transparent and unified TCP/IP Ethernet has become a major communication standard in the field of industrial control.
Industrial switches are characterized by telecommunication performance and can withstand rigorous working environments. Rich product series, flexible port configuration, can meet the needs of various industrial fields. Product adopts wide temperature design, protection level is not less than IP30, support standard and private ring network redundancy protocol.
Industrial Ethernet switches are mainly used for real-time Ethernet data transmission in complex industrial environments. In the design of Ethernet, carrier sense multichannel collision detection (CA/CD mechanism) is adopted, which greatly reduces its reliability in complex industrial environment, resulting in the Ethernet cannot be used. Industrial Ethernet switches adopt storage conversion switching to improve Ethernet communication speed. Built-in intelligent alarm design monitors network operation to ensure reliable and stable operation of Ethernet in harsh and dangerous industrial environment.
