switch offers IPv6/IPv4 dual stack management, intelligent Layer 2 management
functions, and a user-friendly interface. The IFS managed series is able to operate
reliably, stably, and quietly in any environment without affecting its performance.
Featuring ultra networking speed and an operating temperature ranging from -40 to
75°C in a compact but rugged IP30 metal housing, the IFS managed series is an ideal
solution to meeting the demand for the following network applications:
• Building/Home automation network
• Internet of things (IoT)
• IP surveillance
• Wireless LAN
Innovative wall-mount installation
The IFS managed series is specially designed to be installed in a narrow environment,
such as wall enclosure or electric weak box. The compact, flat, and wall-mounted
design fits easily in any space-limited location. It adopts the user-friendly “Front Access”
design, making the installing, cable wiring, LED monitoring, and maintenance of the
wall-mount managed switch placed in an enclosure convenient for technicians. The IFS
managed series can be installed by fixed wall mounting, magnetic wall mounting, or
DIN rail, thereby making its usability more flexible.
IPv6/IPv4 dual stack
Supporting both IPv6 and IPv4 protocols, the industrial managed switch helps SMBs to
step into the IPv6 era with a low investment as its network facilities need not be
replaced or overhauled with the setup of IPv6 FTTx edge networks.
Robust layer 2 features
The industrial managed switch can be programmed for advanced switch management
functions such as dynamic port link aggregation, 802.1Q VLAN and Q-in-Q VLAN,
Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP), Loop and BPDU Guard, and IGMP / MLD
snooping. The industrial managed switch allows the operation of a high-speed trunk
combining multiple ports such as a 16 Gbps fat pipe, and also supports fail-over. Also,
the Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) is the Layer 2 protocol included to help
discover basic information about neighboring devices on the local broadcast domain.
