Advanced Management Functions
The
508FX2-A
offers several management functions that can be
easily confi gured using the COM Port (DB 9 Connector located
on the right side of the switch).
IGMP Snooping - Internet Group Management Protocol is a
feature that allows the
508FX2-A
switch to forward and fi lter
multicast traffi c intelligently.
VLAN - Virtual Local Area Network allows segmentation of the
switch in order to create two or more separate local area network
domains.
QoS - Quality of Service provides prioritization of network traffi c
in order to provide better network service. The primary goal of
QoS is to improve the latency of prioritized Ethernet packets
required for ring management, real-time and other interactive
applications.
Trunking - Trunking (aggregation) enables multiple physical ports
to be linked together and function as one uplink to another
N-TRON
trunking capable switch confi gured in the same manner, thereby
increasing the bandwidth between switches. This confi guration
can provide increased bandwidth and redundancy to applications
requiring high levels of fault tolerant operation.
Port Mirroring - This
508FX2-A
function allows the traffi c on
one port to be duplicated and sent to a designated mirror port. Port
mirroring can be used to monitor Ethernet traffi c on the designated
source port using the assigned mirror port.
N-View OPC Switch Monitoring (With -A or -N Option Only)
The
N-TRON
N-View OLE for Process Control (OPC) server
software can be combined with popular HMI software packages
to add network traffi c monitoring, trending and alarming to
any application using
N-TRON
switches confi gured with the
N-View option.
N-TRON's
N-View OPC server collects 41
different traffi c variables per port and 5 system level variables
per switch. This information can provide a complete overview
of the network load, service quality, and packet traffi c. OPC
client software can use N-View OPC Server data to resolve
network problems quickly and improve system reliability.
Industrial Packaging and Specifi cations
The
N-TRON
508FX2
is designed to operate in industrial
environments. It is housed in a rugged steel enclosure
that can be DIN-RAIL or panel mounted, and an optional
rackmount kit is also available. The
508FX2
comes standard with
extended temperature rating, extended shock and vibration specs,
redundant power inputs, and a high MTBF (greater than 2M hours).
Ease of Use
The
N-TRON
508FX2
requires no setup unless the advanced
port functions are utilized. The six 10/100BaseTX ports are
auto sensing and auto configuring. Each copper port is
automatically negotiated for maximum speed and performance
by default. The two fiber optic ports support full 200Mb/s
communications via 100BaseFX. Bi-color LED's are provided
to display the link status, link speed and activity of each port
as well as power on/off status.
Performance
The
N-TRON
508FX2
uses "state of the art" IEEE 802.3
Fast Ethernet 10/100BaseTX switching technology. This
technology eliminates network collisions and increases
network determinism. Up to 4,000 MAC addresses are
supported enabling sophisticated and complex network
architectures. A high speed processor and backplane
allows wire speed capability on all ports simultaneously.
