Switches & Bridges

The EKI-5525/I and EKI-5528/I are the world's first convergence switches for process control and IT networking management. This series uses Modbus/TCP to communicate with the SCADA software and SNMP to communicate with the NMS (Networking Management System) at the same time, thereby allowing full read control over the devices either for control engineers or for IT. The devices come with the Port-based QoS for deterministic data transmission allows the priority ports to prioritize the traffic coming over those ports and delay the less immediately necessary data over the remaining ports. EKI-5525/I and EKI-5528/I switches use the highest quality components, to enable the range to operate in temperatures of between -40 and 75°C along with Level 3 EMS protection to repel electromagnetic interface for industrial resistance.

They come embedded with Advantech IXM function, which can benefit users with fast deployment and can dramatically save considerably on engineering time and costs. The EKI-7710G series also support NMS to help IT managers with networking maintenance and failure prevention. Finally, they are equipped with X-Ring Pro, which can achieve ultra-high-speed recovery times of <20 ms, thus ensuring network stability

The EKI-2428G is an industrial-class unmanaged switch with 24 Gigabit ports and 4 Gigabit combo ports. It is designed for rack-mount installation, and can be deployed in demanding industrial environments. It is suitable for edge to core industrial networks. It is highly reliable with -40 ~ 70 °C wide temperature operation.

The EKI-5528-PN are new generation of entry-level managed switch products. They support media redundancy protocols and meet the PROFINET real time standard.The devices come with a compact metal housing that is IP30 rated to protect against dusty industrial environments. The wide power input power (8.4 to 52.8 VDC) is dedicated to operating in areas of unstable power and rugged environments.

EKI-7712E-4FP/4FPI supports 8 Fast Ethernet IEEE 802.3 af/at PoE ports and 4 SFP (mini-GBIC) ports. They can provide up to 30 watts per port to fulfill high power consumption PD (Power Device) requirements. They are embedded with Advantech's IXM function, which can benefit users for fast deployment and can dramatically save engineers time and cost. The EKI-7712E series also supports NMS to help IT managers with networking maintenance and failure prevention. Finally, the EKI-7712E series is equipped with X-Ring Pro which can achieve ultra high speed recovery time of less than 20 ms to ensure network stability. The switch also features a wide -40° to 75°C operating temperature (EKI-7712E-4FPI) and NEMA TS2 rating, making the switch an ideal solution for use in traffic applications. EKI-7712E-4FP/4FPI has successfully passed the EN50121-4 European railway standard requirements for emissions and railway platform and trackside deployment.

The EKI-2525PA and EKI-2528PAI are a 5/8-port unmanaged PoE (Power-over-Ethernet) Industrial Ethernet switches that supports 4 PoE ports which are classified as power source equipment (PSE). These PoE devices make centralized power supply possible and provide up to 15.4 watts of power per port. Advantech EKI PoE devices can be used to power IEEE 802.3af compliant powered devices (PD) through Ethernet cable and eliminate the need for additional power wiring. Advantech EKI PoE devices come equipped with all the standard features of the EKI family. Furthermore, they offer a 24/48 V DC redundant power input design and is secured with a double protection mechanism; Power Polarity Reverse Protect and an Overload Current Resettable Fuse. Advantech EKI PoE devices come with compact metal housing that rates IP30 to help against from dusty industrial environments.

The EKI-5726F/FI are the world's first convergence switches for process control and IT networking management. This series uses Modbus/TCP to communicate with the SCADA software and SNMP to communicate with the NMS (Networking Management System) at the same time, thereby allowing full read control over the devices either for control engineers or for IT. The devices come with the Port-based QoS for deterministic data transmission allows the priority ports to prioritize the traffic coming over those ports and delay the less immediately necessary data over the remaining ports. EKI-5726F/FI switches use the highest quality components, to enable the range to operate in temperatures of between -40 and 75°C along with EMS Level 3 protection to repel electromagnetic interface for industrial resistance.

EKI-7712G-4FP/4FPI supports 8 Gigabit IEEE 802.3 af/at PoE ports and 4 SFP (mini-GBIC) ports. They can provide up to 30 watts per port to fulfill high power consumption PD (Power Device). Besides, it is embedded with Advantech IXM function, this can benefit users for fast deployment and can dramatically save engineers time and costs. The EKI-7712G series also support NMS to help IT managers with networking maintenance and failure prevention. Finally, the EKI-7712G series is equipped with X-Ring Pro which can achieve ultra high speed recovery time of less than 20 ms to ensure network stability. The switch also features a wide -40° to 75°C operating temperature (EKI-7712G-4FPI) and NEMA TS2 rating, making the switch an ideal solution for use in traffic applications and have successfully passed the EN50121-4 European railway standard requirements of emission and immunity for railway platforms and trackside deployment.

The EKI-2525/2528 supports a Fast Ethernet solution. The power is a +12 ~ 48 VDC redundant input design, and is secured with a double protection mechanism: Power Polarity Reverse Protect and an Overload Current Resetable Fuse. The former tolerates reverse power wiring while the later secures the system from overload currents. As the power supply turns normal, EKI-2525/2528 will automatically get back to work. Each port of EKI-2525/2528 has 2 LED's to show the link status transmission speed and collision status. It also provides a relay output for an event alarm. In the event of a power failure, the built-in LED will activate the alarm to notify administrators. Engineers can simply verify the hardware status by checking the LED, and have troubleshooting easy and quick. EKI-2525/2528 comes with compact metal housing that rates IP30 to help against from dusty industrial environments.
