Ethernet switches are easy to integrate
Low-cost industrial Ethernet switches combine low-profile mounting with ease of installation in IP30 industrial environments.
Harting has introduced a new range of low-cost industrial Ethernet switches that combine low-profile mounting with ease of installation in IP30 industrial environments The new eCon2000 Series offer an unmanaged Ethernet switch configuration for use with 10 or 100Mbit/s Ethernet networks conforming to the IEEE802.3 standard, and feature automatic detection of the data-transmission rate

Media convertor allows easy communication upgrades
The eCon 3011 is designed to ease the migration to optical-fibre communication in industrial applications where electrical Ethernet data transmission reaches the limits of its performance.
Devices are available with three, four or five RJ45 ports, all featuring auto-negotiation, auto-polarity and auto-crossing and operating in the nonblocking store and forward switching mode.
The switches support simple and rapid network diagnostics with integrated LEDs at every port.
The robust aluminium housing measures only 46.5 x 25.5 x 105.4mm and lends itself to a flat mounting configuration.
It is easily adapted for mounting onto a top hat 35mm mounting rail according to EN60715.
The eCon2000 Series operates from a 12-30V DC pluggable power supply, and has an operating temperature range from -10 to +70C.
It meets all relevant IEC and DIN EN standards for electromagnetic compatibility, and is fully RoHS compliant.
Typical applications are inside cabinets in the industrial, transport and building automation sectors, particularly in networks with large populations of switches.
