Flexible and Secure Networking Equipment in Harsh Environment — The Series of L3 PoE Industrial Ethernet Switches

The spotlight product of this monthly EDM is industrial grade CQ-0804X2 layer 3 din-rail switch. It provides high power up to 95W PoE and 10 gigabit transmission speed for uplink. Its high density size can be installed in the harsh environment like outdoor cabinet. It can be well connected to the end edge devices such as high resolution PTZ cameras. By its layer 3 features, once one of its subnet was affect by a certain unintended problems such as broadcast storms, the effect of network outages will only remain within the subnet. The other subnet will stay well operation as usual. By this way, the whole topology will be not affected and still operating in good condition.

Additionally, Konten’s Layer 3 industrial switches support flexible routing protocols for user networking applying in different environments. For example, RIPv1/v2 can be adopted in a small area such as the local control cabinet for its simple and easy configuring feature. OSPFv2 can be applied in a middle size or a large size network topology. VRRP is network redundancy for one-point failure of routers. It can help to simplify the complicated network structure and provide high speed transmission service. In summary, Konten’s layer 3 switches are designed for different scale of networks from small to medium and installed in a control cabinet or a control center. The Routing Functions including Static Routing, RIPv1/v2 OSPFv2 and VRRPv2 can be applied for efficient management of data transmission among subnets. Also for redundancy protocol in subnet, ERPS (IEEE G.8032) supports nonstop backup ring. When it comes to a sudden network shutdown, SNMP alarm trap will be triggered to inform the administrator to look into the issue and solve the problem immediately.

Konten Networks provides a full range of advanced Layer 2 and Layer 3 industrial Ethernet switches from Gigabit to 10G, 4 ports to 28 ports, copper to fiber, RJ45 to M12, 30W PoE to 60W/95W PoE, DIN-Rail to Rack Mounting for core centers and edge sites. They’re certified with IEC61850-3, IEEE1613, EN50155, EN50121-4 and EN45545-2 for critical infrastructures of different vertical markets. Konten offers you a total solution of industrial Ethernet equipment.

Konten Networks understands what you need. More applications of Layer 3 Switches such as track side and power plant will be soon introduced in the next EDM.
