Device description

The MACH100 devices are managed Workgroup switches with up to 24 Fast
Ethernet and 2 Gigabit Ethernet ports. They consist of a basic device and -
depending on the device variant - up to 2 pluggable media modules. They al-
low you to construct switched industrial ETHERNET networks that conform
to the IEEE 802.3 and 802.3u standards using copper wires or optical fibers
in a bus or ring topology. You can connect terminal devices and other infra-
structure components via twisted pair cables, multi-mode fiber optic and sin-
gle-mode fiber optic. The twisted pair ports support autocrossing,
autonegotiation and autopolarity.

The MACH100 devices provide you with a range of switch variants. You can
set up your switch to meet your individual requirements with regard to the
transmission media type, the number of 10/100 Mbit/s ports you want (8, 16
or 24), the redundant voltage supply and the software variant.
The devices are modular network components. They are designed for the
special requirements of industrial automation. They meet the relevant indus-
try standards, provide very high operational reliability, even under extreme
conditions, and also long-term reliability and flexibility. The devices work
without a fan. If desired, the voltage supply can be redundant
- depending on the device variant. The basic devices are suitable for mount-
ing on the 19" rack and for wall mounting.
The HIPER-Ring redundancy concept enables you to quickly carry out a
reconfiguration, and also a simple configuration with only one additional
connection. The diagnosis display and the display of the operating para-
meters and the large label areas provide a quick overview.
It can be easily managed via a Web browser, via Telnet, with a management
software product (such as HiVision) or locally on the switch (V.24 interface).
The devices provide you with a large range of features:
Redundancy functions
(Rapid Spanning Tree, Redundant Ring Structure, HIPER-Ring, Redun-
dant Coupling, Link Aggregation, Redundant Power Supply)
Protection from unauthorized access
Synchronized system time in the network
Network load control
