November 21, 2006 - Minneapolis, Minn. - TURCK Inc. introduces a new line of fully encapsulated and connectorized managed and unmanaged Ethernet switches. These switches are capable of information transfer and real-time I/O control in harsh industrial environments. The switches support 10/100 Base-T with twisted pair Ethernet cable.
The unmanaged switches are available in 5 or 9-port configurations, with support for either 2 or 4 twisted pair media. The managed switch is offered in the 9-port configuration, with one port used as a RS-232 configuration port. The setup of the switches is as simple as applying power and connecting devices to the ports. IGMP, RSTP, SNMP and V-LAN are supported by the managed switch and may be configured by the RS-232 serial configuration port or by the internal webpage.
IEEE 802.3 specification makes TURCK’s Ethernet switches capable of any Ethernet application, and the rugged design and packaging keep these switches working under conditions where others are likely to fail. TURCK is an industry leader providing superior quality sensing, connectivity and network products to help manufacturers improve their automated processes.
