Industrial ETHERNET Technology
WAGO's rugged switches are designed for industrial use in compliance with the
following standards:
-
IEEE 802.3,
-
IEEE 802.3u
-
IEEE 802.3ab
-
IEEE 802.3z
-
IEEE 802.3x
-
IEEE 802.1p
-
IEEE 802.3af
-
IEEE 802.3at
-
IEEE 802.3az
The switches have a power supply with a supply voltage range of 24 … 57 V.
“Power over Ethernet” (PoE+) is supported on 4 ports.
In addition, 2 SPF slots are available for integration in extensive networks.
Features such as auto-negotiation and auto-MDI/MDIX (crossover) are realized in
all 10/100/1000BASE-T ports.

Switching Technology
Industrial ETHERNET primarily uses switching technology. This technology
allows any network subscriber to send at any time because the subscriber always
has an open peer-to-peer connection to the next switch. The connection is
bidirectional, i.e., the subscriber can send and receive at the same time (full
duplex).
The targeted use of switching technology can increase real-time capability
because the peer-to-peer connection prevents collisions in network
communication.
