Product Highlights
Features and Benefits
Overview
High bandwidth is required to support the ever-increasing demand for Ethernet-based equipment and applications. The IP20 switches offer high-speed data transmission in a small-footprint compact design.
Challenging industrial environments create demand for robust switches. The IP20 switches feature a metal enclosure that provides robustness against harsh conditions and the enclosure’s easy set-up and integration save customers time.
Usage of basic Ethernet switches to transport PROFINET traffic causes perturbance. Molex’s PROFINET-compliant technology ensures quick and secure data exchange.
IP67-rated harsh-duty Ethernet switches provide customers with a fast, rugged and secure-on-machine Ethernet connection to reduce network cabling, lower installation costs and eliminate wiring errors.
As a recognized technology provider, Molex offer switches that are designed to be part of an industrial automation system, taking care of the specifics of industrial Ethernet fieldbuses, supporting in-house PROFINET topology detection and prioritizing Ethernet/IP traffic.
