Overview

The Elinx EIR500 and EIR600 series Industrial Managed Ethernet Switches provide powerful functionality in an IP30 DIN mount package. Designed for industrial applications, these switches contain all the standard features of other switches, such at IGMP Snooping, Port Based VLAN, 802.1Q Tag VLAN, auto MDI/MDI-X, auto negotiation, store and forward switching, STP, RSTP, Web Based Management, Ingress Packet Filtering, and Egress Rate Control.

These managed switches also come with important industrial features to ensure reliability in an industrial application. Redundant Ring Technology with coupling ring and dual homing allows automatic recovery in less than 20ms for EIR600 series and less than 300ms for EIR500 series. Dual power inputs ensure reliability. A alarm output for port failure notification. If GIGABIT Ethernet is required, choose a product from the EIR600 series

Web-based Management

Each switch has an embedded HTML web site residing in flash memory, offering advanced management features

VLAN Configuration

A Virtual LAN (VLAN) is a logical network grouping that limits the broadcast domain. This allows you to isolate network traffic so that members of a VLAN will only receive traffic from other members of the same VLAN. However, since it is a virtual network, the network devices remain connected to the same switch physically. Both port-based and 802.1Q (taggedbased) VLAN are supported.

Port Mirroring

Port mirroring is a method for monitoring traffic in switched networks. Packets transmitted and received by a port can be mirrored to another specified port.

IGMP

The Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) is a communications protocol used to manage the membership of Internet Protocol multicast groups. IGMP is used by IP hosts to establish multicast group memberships
