EtherDevice™Switch EDS-518A Series 16+2G-Port Gigabit Managed Redundant Ethernet Switch
Taipei, Taiwan, May 25, 2006---MOXA Networking is launching a new gigabit Ethernet switch that has all the features needed for industrial Ethernet applications. EDS-518A is a new generation Ethernet switch that meets the European Union's RoHS standards. The switch is scheduled for release later this year.
EDS-518A is a standalone 18-port managed Ethernet switch that provides 2 combo
gigabit ports with built-in RJ45 or SFP ports for gigabit optical
communication. The gigabit Ethernet Redundant Turbo Ring (recovery
time < 300 ms) increases the reliability and speed of your network backbone. EDS-518A
also supports intelligent network management functions, including
QoS, IGMP Snooping/GMRP, VLAN, Port Trunking, SNMP V1/V2c/V3, IEEE
802.1X, and https/SSL.
EDS-518A comes equipped with gigabit Turbo Ring capability that gives system maintainers a convenient means of setting up a versatile yet stable gigabit Ethernet network. In addition, Quality of Service (QoS) provides a traffic prioritization capability to ensure that important data is delivered consistently and predictably, and EDS-518A supports IEEE802.1D-1998 GMRP and IGMP Snooping to reduce the amount of traffic on the Ethernet LAN. EDS-518A supports VLAN technology, which can be used to segment your network without being restricted by physical connections, and IEEE802.3ad (LACP) provides flexible network connections and a redundant path for critical devices. SNMP V1/V2c/V3 provide different levels of management, and RMON (Remote Network Monitoring) allows various network agents and console systems to exchange network monitoring data. In addition, IEEE802.1X and https/SSL are available to enhance network security.
