Smart Industrial Ethernet Switch
Machine builders and automation engineers are expecting to find an easy way to monitor both control systems and network status from their SCADA/HMI, so that they can react in time to minimise the downtime of the entire system. In addition, the most common concern related to deploying managed switches is operational complexity, including both setup and subsequent management.
Moxa’s super-slim SDS-3000 Series industrial smart switches are designed to meet these challenges. With their simplified protocol configuration, flexible mounting design, easy-to-use interface, and slim form factor, the SDS-3000 Series industrial smart switches are the perfect fit for control cabinets in any smart manufacturing application.
Common Challenges for Ethernet Switch Deployment
Cost Issue
For applications that require only basic monitoring and control functions, it’s not economical for engineers to choose expensive managed switches, which often support too many unneeded functions.
Space Limitations
Engineers work with different types of control cabinets, and each one has space or installation limitations.
Complex Configuration
IT-oriented user interfaces, which are often very complicated and come with a steep learning curve for IA engineers, make it harder to update configurations and handle basic troubleshooting tasks.
3 industrial protocols supported and one-click setup to prep your switch for management from SCADA/HMIs.
2 installation options, including DIN-rail and rack-mounting to fit into almost any type of industrial cabinet.
1 page configuration dashboard makes it extremely easy to configure and deploy your switch and the UI supports six different languages.
