Ethernet switches offer wide speed range

A Harting product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team May 27, 2008

Ethernet switch management uses a simple centralised configuration, with administration via a web interface, SNMP (simple network management protocol) or the Telnet standard network protocol.

Harting has released the mCon 1000 series of mCon 1000 managed Ethernet switches, which offers a flexible range of communications options for industrial network applications.

The managed switch range supports Ethernet (10Mbit/s), Fast Ethernet (100Mbit/s) and Gigabit Ethernet (1000Mbit/s).

Up to 11 Ethernet stations can be connected with shielded twisted-pair cable and fibre optic cable.

Two of the devices in the range - mCon 1052-ASFP and mCon 1083-ASFP - provide easy interfacing with applications using fibre optic cables by including SFP (small form factor pluggable) plug-in modules.

Ethernet switch management uses a simple centralised configuration, with administration via a web interface, SNMP (simple network management protocol) or the Telnet standard network protocol.

Features implemented include rapid spanning tree, radius, prioritisation and SNMP traps.

The Ethernet switches can be replaced for maintenance purposes, with a backup of the configuration saved to an optional memory card.

The memory cards have their own MAC addresses, so that the replacement of a mCon switch does not influence network topology or network administration.
