Lite Managed Industrial DIN Rail Fast Ethernet Switches - GECKO

With a combination of managed and unmanaged switches, GECKO switches are ideally suited for use in smaller networks or on the edge of larger installations. With the proper level of management functionality included, you can configure and monitor the switches without needing any special IT know-how.

• Cost-effective way of entering the world of managed switches
• Simple network management and enhanced network availability
• Centralized configuration of network parameters from a web interface
• Redundancy and diagnostic functions ensure high network availability
• Easy commissioning (compared to fully managed switches)
• Reduced operating costs due to low power consumption
• Reduced life cycle costs --outstanding price-performance ratio

• 4 or 5 Fast Ethernet ports (10/100 Mbit/s)
• Compact plastic housing for space-saving installations
• Resistance to shocks and vibration
• Operating temperature: 0°C to +60°C
• Protection class IP30
• 24V DC power supply
• Dimensions 25 x 114 x 79 mm

Common Configurations

Temperature Range: 0°C to +60°C | Approvals: cUL 61010-1 | Voltage Range: 12/24 V DC

Benefits

• If you have been reluctant to use managed switches because of their complex operation, then the GECKO switches are the ideal alternative. The GECKO switches fit into tight spaces thanks to a compact housing that makes them one of the smallest managed Industrial Ethernet switches on the market. Moreover, the GECKO switches offer a well-designed and intuitive graphical user interface, even on mobile devices.

Applications

• In designing the GECKO switches, the fundamental management functions were integrated to enable the configuration and monitoring of the switches. This concept allows the GECKO switches to bring added value to areas where unmanaged switches cannot deliver the required performance. They can also be used when fully-managed switches are not needed, due to superfluous functionality or complex operation. With their compact yet robust design, the GECKO switches can be used in a wide range of areas, from solar farms to production lines in the food and beverage sector. Potential application scenarios include machine and plant engineering, material handling, robotics and connecting production cells for various industries. No matter where they are installed, the GECKO switches guarantee reliable data communication.
