1.1 About the TGPS-9164GT-M12
The TGPS-9164GT-M12 series is a managed Gigabit Ethernet switch with
16x10/100/1000Base-T(X) P.S.E. ports and 4x10/100/1000Base-T(X) non-PoE ports. The
series consists of BP2 models (TGPS-9164GT-M12-BP2) and non-BP2 models
(TGPS-9164GT-M12). The non-PoE ports of TGPS-9164GT-M12-BP2 provide bypass
functions to ensure constant network connectivity if power outage or node failure occurs. In
such situations, the device will bypass the inactive switch and continue to transfer network
traffic to the next switch in the relay. The switch supports various Ethernet redundancy
protocols such as O-Ring (recovery time < 30ms over 250 units of connection), Open-Ring,
O-Chain, MRP and MSTP (RSTP/STP compatible) to protect your mission-critical applications
from network interruptions or temporary malfunctions. With EN50155 compliance and M12
connectors, the device is a perfect choice for the toughest industrial environments as the
features can ensure tight, robust connections, and guarantee reliable operation against
environmental disturbances, such as vibration and shock. The device also supports
Power-over-Ethernet which enables electrical power (up to 30 watts) to be transmitted along
with data over standard twisted-pair Ethernet cables. Supporting wide operating temperature
from -40 to 70 degrees, the device can be managed centrally via Open-Vision, the Web-based
interface, Telnet and console (CLI) configuration.
