LUTZE's latest addition to industrial network communication, the E-CO switches, are designed with durability and versatility in mind. Available in 5, 8, or 16-port configurations, these unmanaged Ethernet switches are engineered to meet the rigorous demands of industrial environments. They stand out for their robust metal housing, wide input voltage range (DC 12 V to 48 V and AC 24 V), and comprehensive compliance with the IEEE 802.3az standard for Energy Efficient Ethernet, ensuring both reliability and energy savings.
The E-CO switches excel in environments requiring precise data prioritization, offering Quality of Service (QoS) capabilities, along with auto-negotiation and auto-crossing features for seamless integration into various network topologies. Designed for convenience, they can be mounted on DIN rails or panels, making them a flexible solution for any setup. Their compact design is complemented by an extended operational temperature range of -40 °C to +75 °C, ensuring performance in the most challenging conditions.
Incorporating advanced features like error messaging and enhanced Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) protection, the E-CO switches provide not only a dependable network backbone but also contribute to LUTZE's SkyBLUE initiative for sustainability. By offering an intelligent approach to energy management, these switches represent a step forward in creating energy-efficient Ethernet networks. With their support for Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet, along with the ability to facilitate various network topologies, LUTZE's E-CO switches are an economical yet powerful solution for enhancing system design flexibility and increasing system availability.
