RS PRO 8-Port Compact Ethernet Switch

Hardened industrial compact Ethernet 8 Port unmanaged switch from our RS PRO range. They are galvanically isolated Ethernet Ports capable of 10/100 Mbps. The Ethernet switches industrial temperature range is -40°C to +80°C and the dual input redundant power supply with wide voltage range means it can be powered from a USB or on the 24V factory floor. The switch features a tough powder coated aluminium case with die-cast aluminium end covers. Power terminal is removable with numbered pins for easy wiring. Power consumption is optimised based on the status of the link device.. No software is required, you just plug in and connect.

Ethernet switches, also known as LAN (local area network) switches, are an integral part of any computer network interface. Fixed switches have a fixed number of ports and can come in speeds Fast Ethernet (10/100 Mbps), Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000 Mbps), Ten Gigabit (10/100/1000/10000 Mbps) and 40/100 Gbps speeds. When choosing the speed, you should consider the network needs of the user and whether they will be transferring large volumes of data. This RS PRO Ethernet switch has a speed of 10/100 Mbps.
