WaveLine Managed Switches
15 February 2010
Efficient switches for industrial applicationswith digital inputs and outputs
The new Managed Switch generation from Weidmuller – ideal entry into sophisticated machine communication. The new Managed Switch in the WaveLine series is a logical continuation of Weidmuller's innovative power. This switch, with a housing measuring just 45 mm in width, can be used in all industrial applications.Its digital inputs and outputs can detect monitoring and messaging functions without using a PLC. In real-time networks based on PROFINET RT, Ethernet/IP and Modbus TCP, the switch shows its true strengths. This is made possible by the implemented Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP snooping) and different variations of Quality of Service (QoS, TOS and DiffServ).
Furthermore, the switch can be seamlessly integrated with the interface to office communication networks with the RSTP protocol (Rapid Spanning Tree) and VLAN. The RapidRing™ protocol, developed by Weidmuller, enables failsafe communication, thus ensuring network availability through redundant interfacing with a maximum interruption time of 300 ms. LLDP topology detection automatically transmits the current network configuration, for example to a network management software programme by means of which the display of Ethernet networks is greatly simplified.
Sturdy Expanded temperature range –40 °C … +70 °C . Fibre-optic connections Variations available with ST, SC-duplex, SCRJ and LC. Singlemode variations for a path of up to 20 km with SC-duplex connection. Suitable for real-time use Can be used in Ethernet/IP, PROFINET RT and Modbus TCP networks as well as in real-time communication. Local inspections Digital inputs and outputs for controllers and inspections – can be queried via SNMP. Flexible access Configuration via USB, web interface or Weidmuller configurator.
