MSM-508

Introduction

The MSM-508 is an 8-Port Industrial Ethernet (10/100Base-TX) Layer 2 Managed Switch. MSM-508 supports 10/100 M auto-negotiation feature and auto MDI /MDI-X function. It can automatically switch the transmission speed (10 Mbps or 100 Mbps) for corresponding connections. The Ethernet port connectors are shielded RJ-45. The shielded RJ-45 connectors offer a high reliability Ethernet environment for industrial control and automation.

It can be managed through the RS-232 port via serial console or Ethernet port using telnet or Web browser. In addition, the switch supports a lot of powerful managed functions, such as 802.1Q Tag-based VLAN, Port-based VLAN, 802.1p QoS (Quality of Service), Port Trunking, Spanning Tree, Cable Testing and Port Mirroring. Built-in ICP DAS Cyber-Ring techniques enable multiple switches to be placed into a redundant ring. The switch detects and recovers from a fiber or copper link failure within approximately 50ms – for the majority of applications a seamless process. Modbus/TCP, Modbus/RTU and OPC supported, SCADA application can monitor status of Ethernet port with Modbus or OPC protocol.

MSM-508 provides two power inputs that can be connected simultaneously to live DC power sources. If one of the power inputs fails, the other live source acts as a backup to automatically support the MSM-508's power needs. And, the relay output facility can deliver warning signal while dual power or network link failure.
