Networking and Configurations
6.1
Networking
SICOM3024SM industrial Ethernet switch provides one to twenty-four
10Base-T/100Base-TX Ethernet RJ45 ports, each of which can provide link directly to
the terminal devices, or to another industrial Ethernet switch/hub before terminal device
as link share. SICOM3024SM has four (4) pairs of redundant fiber ports of 100Base-LX
single mode or multimode. The redundant Gigabit fiber ports can form backbone
redundant fiber ring of 1000M with recovery time less than 50ms. Furthermore,
SICOM3024SM supply maximum 24 pairs of redundant fiber port of
100Base-FX-SM/MM or RJ45 ports, which can form 100M redundant ring network with
the recovery time less than 50ms. It is widely used in electric power, transportation,
energy, water treatment and factory automation etc.
The typical networking topology of SICOM3024SM is redundant ring network.
SICOM3024SM can form the redundant fiber ring network as shown in Figure 6-1, in
which one device is set as master and the rest are slave. The network can re-configure
within 50ms when failure occurs.
