Industrial switches are also known as industrial Ethernet switches. At the beginning of the design, The Ethernet switch does not take into account the application requirements of the industrial network. Therefore, when the network equipment is deployed in the industrial field, the stability of the commercial switch will be greatly challenged in the face of a harsh working environment. In this regard, industrial Ethernet switches with high reliability, stability, and security have emerged as the times to become a transmission tool that can adapt to complex industrial environments and facilitate industrial automation network deployment.
Industrial switches are designed to withstand the toughest working environments, with a wide product line and flexible port configurations to meet the needs of a wide range of industrial control applications. With the rapid development of power, metallurgy, petrochemical, environmental protection, transportation, construction and other industries, the demand for industrial Ethernet switches is also growing.
o, what are the advantages of industrial switches compared to commercial PoE switches ? PoE switch brand manufacturer ONV introduces you in detail.
Industrial switches have high requirements for component selection and can withstand the detection of harsh environments, so they can adapt to industrial environments and support industrial applications in harsh environments.
Industrial switches generally have fast ring network and fast redundancy, and the system redundancy time can be less than 50ms. Although commercial PoE switches can also form redundant networks, the self-healing time is more than 10 to 30 s, which cannot meet the needs of industrial environments.
Industrial grade switches have strong anti-interference performance, can work in the harsh electromagnetic environment, and have high protection level in lightning protection, waterproof, anti-corrosion, anti-shock, anti-static, etc., while commercial-grade PoE switches Do not have these characteristics.
Industrial switches generally use a pleated metal casing for faster heat dissipation and greater protection. They work well in the temperature range of -40 ° C to +75 ° C and can be well adapted to complex temperatures and humidity. Commercial PoE switches can only work in the range of 0 °C to +50 °C, which can not meet the working requirements in harsh climates.
The power supply is a very important part of industrial switches. Power failures generally account for more than 35% of equipment failure rates. To avoid the trouble of power failure, industrial switches use dual power supply redundancy to ensure stable and reliable operation. Commercial PoE switches generally use AC single-supply power supply, which is not suitable for industrial environments.
