Husky series industrial ethernet switch
Ethernet Direct Corporation announce that the Husky series industrial ethernet switch is now compatible with Auto-IP, a management software.
This gives a large degree of flexibility and scalability depending on the user's requirement and also leads to significant cost savings.
The dual power inputs (12 to 48 VDC) is designed for redundant power configurations to ensure system uptime.
In the event a problem occurs with external power, a built-in fault relay is available to signal an external programmable logic controller (PLC) or other controllers.
Ease of installation and maintenance to withstand longer product life is a key consideration for Ethernet Direct.
Each Ethernet port is equipped with LED indicators that provide transmission speed, link, and activity status to give support in diagnostics especially with cables and attached devices.
While with auto-MDI/MDI-X, there is no need to use crossover cables, and auto-negotiation provides optimum Ethernet link configurations.
In the SNMP managed version, HMG-1628 offers excellent management features that help to keep your network running hassle free and can automatically detect the Gigabit cable connections priority for each Gigabit port.
