Secure industrial Ethernet topology

September 2010 Fieldbus & Industrial Networking

Korenix’s JetNet 5018G, the 16+2G industrial managed gigabit Ethernet din-rail switch for auto topology and large group networks.

Korenix has introduced the JetNet 5018G intelligent high power density gigabit Ethernet switch specifically designed for large network applications requiring high-port density and secure connection. Equipped with 16 fast Ethernet ports and 2 gigabit SFP combo ports, the switch is capable of aggregating up to 8 fast Ethernet and 1 gigabit fibre/copper rings while ensuring the network reliability for various distance applications.

The switch has advanced Layer 2 management features, including LLDP and JetView Pro, QoS, 255 VLAN, IGMP Snooping, GMRP, SNMP, as well as the MSR and RSTP network redundancy technologies to provide extended performance with secure data management in industrial environments.

Combining a rugged IP31 enclosure with a wide operating temperature range


(-25 to 70°C) JetNet 5018G has been designed for high performance in reliable, secure network constructions in large industrial applications including railways, airports, mining, oil and gas, wind farms and power stations.
