The GE IS420ESWAH1A is a 10/100 Ethernet IONet Switch designed for use in GE Mark VIe and Mark VIeS control systems. This module is a key component for managing network communication within industrial automation and turbine control systems.
Key Features and Functionality
The IS420ESWAH1A switch is engineered to provide seamless and reliable network connectivity in demanding industrial environments. Its primary function is to serve as a hub, allowing various devices like controllers, I/O packs, and other components to communicate with each other over an Ethernet network.
- Ports: The module features eight 10/100Base-TX copper ports with RJ-45 connectors. A notable feature of this specific model is the inclusion of one multi-mode fiber optic port, which allows for longer-distance connections without signal degradation.
- Redundancy: The switch has dual power supply inputs (Diode-OR’d), which provides power redundancy and ensures continuous operation even if one power source fails.
- Performance: To meet the needs of real-time industrial control, the switch has a minimum 256 KB buffer with up to 4K MAC addresses. This helps manage data traffic efficiently.
- Diagnostics: It includes LED indicators for each port to show the status of the link, activity, duplex, and speed. A separate LED indicates the power status.
- Mounting: The module is designed for DIN-rail mounting, which allows for quick and secure installation in control cabinets.
