Moxa has unveiled the ideal communication solution for high bandwidth Ethernet powered devices (PDs) in industrial applications. The new EDS-G512E-8PoE has been released in order to complete the line of high performance and extremely reliable industrial Ethernet switches, the EDS E series. It features a high power output up to 36 W designed for industrial, heavy-duty PoE devices; Gigabit Ethernet capabilities for large bandwidth network transmissions; easy management tools (SmartPoE) for monitoring PDs; and an industrial-grade reliability built to withstand harsh environments.
“Due to the increasing adoption of high bandwidth PDs in industrial applications such as PTZ/outdoor HD cameras and wireless APs with IEEE 802.11n and IEEE 802.11ac capabilities, a switch with IEEE 802.3at abilities while featuring Gigabit Ethernet solutions is essential for a smooth network communication,” explained Gary Chang, product manager at Moxa’s Industrial Ethernet Infrastructure Division. “The new EDS-G512E-8PoE series features 8 Gigabit PoE+ ports, allowing for large bandwidth transmissions and up to 30 W of power in its standard mode. For heavy-duty power devices requiring a higher voltage, the EDS-G512E-8PoE series also allows up to 36 W of power output. The series ensures a sufficient power supply for mission-critical, power sensitive applications, making it the best Gigabit PoE+ solution to date.”
The EDS-G512E-8PoE comes with a series of smart management tools that simplify the process of remotely controlling and monitoring the PD. These include a power management function to optimise the system, thus lightening its burden, and a diagnostic function to detect PD conditions with failure detection and LED indicators. Other features, such as 3 kV LAN surge protection, -40 to 75°C wide temperature tolerance, Turbo Ring and Turbo Chain technology, and Moxa’s industrial network management software, are also included to guarantee network reliability and uptime.
