Smart Switches, SDS-3016 Series

Published on : Monday 12-07-2021

Moxa has added the SDS-3016 Series to its Red Dot award-winning product family.

The new addition includes Gigabit uplink, eight additional ports, and an easy-to-configure Industrial Automation (IA)-profile that allows automation engineers to quickly process the increasing amounts of data within the smart manufacturing industry. Moxa always strives to ensure users can achieve network interoperability and integration immediately.

Automation engineers are increasingly putting more emphasis on the underlying health of their networks to ensure they can maintain reliable plant operations. This is often achieved by monitoring data and the network status from SCADA/HMIs, allowing automation engineers to prevent network downtime.

The smart switch was specifically designed for IA engineers and automation machine builders. The switch only includes the functions IA engineers and automation machine builders need, and importantly, does not require them to have IT-based network management skills. We believe the smart switch is the ideal product for the manufacturing industry, especially for machine builders who are embracing the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) and Industry 4.0.

The SDS-3016 Series Smart Switch Features:
14+2G-port Gigabit smart Ethernet switches
3 industrial protocols including EtherNet/IP, PROFINET, and Modbus/TCP
2 installation methods with DIN-rail and rack-mounting options
1-page dashboard GUI for easy device configuration and port diagnostics reports
One-step configuration to enable seamless SCADA/HMI/NMS integration
Supports RSTP/STP/MRP(Client) network redundancy, and
Compact size to fit in confined spaces.
