EDS-518A is a standalone 18-port managed Ethernet switch that provides 2 combo gigabit ports with built-in RJ45 or SFP ports for gigabit optic communication. The gigabit Ethernet Redundant Turbo Ring (recovery time <300 ms) increases the reliability and speed of your network backbone. EDS-518A also supports intelligent network management functions, including QoS, IGMP Snooping/GMRP, VLAN, Port Trunking, SNMP V1/V2c/V3, IEEE 802.1X, and https/SSL.EDS-518A comes equipped with gigabit Turbo Ring capability that gives system administrators a convenient means of setting up a versatile yet stable gigabit Ethernet network.
In addition, Quality of Service (QoS) provides a traffic prioritization capability to ensure that important data is delivered consistently and predictably, and EDS-518A supports IEEE802.1D-1998 DMRP and IGMP Snooping to reduce the amount of traffic on the Ethernet LAN. EDS-518A supports VLAN technology, which can be used to segment your network without being restricted by physical connections, and IEEE802.3ad (LACP) provides flexible network connections and a redundant path for critical devices. RMON (Remote Network Monitoring) allows various network agents and console systems to exchange network monitoring data.
In addition, IEEE802.1X and https/SSL are available to enhance network security. Lastly, the switch also accepts Moxa’s ABC-01 (Automatic Backup Configurator) which allows easy upload/download of saved management configurations.
