Ethernet Direct Corporation, a professional and primary provider of Industrial Networking and communication solutions, is pleased to reveal the company¡¦s successful applications deploying Industrial Gigabit switches and the facts on how to choose the right Gigabit solution depending on the existing network structure.
The following is one of the many applications deploying Ethernet Direct Industrial Gigabit switches
Intelligent Transportation. In a newly built U.S. Mid-West airport, Gigabit and ring redundancy were used throughout the project. Parking lanes used HMG-628G (10 port Full Gigabit switch) in a redundant ring to connect to existing edge devices (card readers, VoIP, gate control, etc.) All the 19 lane rings were dual homed to a main ring of HMG-448G (4 port Full Gigabit + 4 SFP) and HMG-1628 switches. The various servers were then connected to the main HMG-448G ring with dual connections. The system had redundancy at every level, insuring the reliability of the system. Extensive configuration with simple user friendly products ensures maximum network security. Ethernet Direct provides a solution that provides fast communication with the use of rail switches which are industrially hardened and specifically designed to operate reliably in electrically harsh, demanding environments and in hazardous locations.
All Ethernet Direct switches are designed for industrial environments with considerations in:
l Mechanical Protection
l Power Protection
l Downtime Elimination
l Transient Suppression
l Extended Temperature Range
l Industrial EMC design
l Network Redundancy
l Safety Approvals
