2.1 Product Description
The PLANET entry level Industrial Ethernet Switch is industrially hardened Ethernet switch specifically
designed to operate reliably in electrically harsh and climatically demanding environments.utilization.
2.1.1 Product Overview
The switch provides a high level of immunity to electromagnetic interference and heavy electrical surges
typical of environments found on plant floors or in curb side traffic control cabinets. An operating
temperature range of -0 to +60 Degree C coupled with hazardous location certification (Class 1 Division 2)
allows the switch to be placed in almost any location.
The switch is packaged in a compact, IP-30 standard aluminum that allows either DIN or panel mounting
for efficient use of cabinet space. The switch provides an integrated power supply with a wide range of
voltages (12-48VDC) for worldwide operability or dual-redundant, reversible polarity, 24VDC and 48VDC
power supply inputs for high availability applications requiring dual or backup power inputs.
