Gigabit Modular Switch Now With Routing Function

Gigabit Modular Switch Now With Routing Function

The Gigabit Modular Switch from Phoenix Contact now supports the layer 3 function in order to route communications between individual sub-networks.

By inserting an SD flash card with layer 3 license in combination with layer 3 firmware, the switch supports port-related routing, static routing, or the VRRP (Virtual Route Residency Protocol) to address redundant router applications.

A pre-installed layer 2 Gigabit Modular Switch can be kept and subsequently upgraded to become a layer 3 device using the SD FLASH card. The switch configuration can also be saved on this card.

For use in production backbones, the switch supports all commonly used Gigabit and fast Ethernet data transmission standards, standard IT protocols; as well as the Profinet and EtherNet/IP automation protocols.

In addition to the integrated Gigabit ports, the switch can accommodate interface modules for up to 16 additional 100 Mbit/s ports.
