The Smart Ethernet Switch SDS-G3008 is the ideal product for IA engineers and automation machine builders to make their networks compatible with the vision of Industry 4.0. The Smart Switch breathes life into machines and control cabinets, simplifying daily tasks through its easy configuration and straightforward installation. Furthermore, it is monitorable and maintenance-friendly throughout its entire product lifecycle.

The most commonly used automation protocols—including EtherNet/IP, PROFINET, and Modbus TCP—are embedded in the SDS-G3008 switch to provide enhanced operational performance and flexibility, allowing it to be controlled and monitored from automation HMIs. Additionally, it supports a range of useful management features, including IEEE 802.1Q VLAN, port mirroring, SNMP, relay alerts, and a multilingual web GUI.

Additional features and benefits:

• IP port binding to ensure critical devices can be quickly replaced without needing to reassign the IP address
• IEEE 802.1Q VLAN for simplified network planning
• Supports the ABC-02-USB (automatic backup configurator) for quick backup/restoration of system configuration and firmware upgrades
• Automatic alerts for failures via relay output
• Lock for unused ports, SNMPv3, and HTTPS to enhance network security
• Port mirroring for online debugging and monitoring
• Local logging and the ability to export inventory files facilitate inventory management

Ethernet interface:
