Lapp has decided to offer its own switches because only the combination of an industrial-grade switch and industrial branded cables such as the Lapp ETHERLINE® models can guarantee the very highest performance in terms of transmission quality and reliability. The customer does not need to purchase individual components from different suppliers. Instead, they can procure a complete communication solution from a single source for the highest demands in industrial applications.
Lapp supplies the switches in four variants: “managed”, i.e. with the option of configuration and five or eight RJ45 ports, designated ETHERLINE® ACCESS M05T or M08T respectively. By contrast, the ETHERLINE® ACCESS U05T and U08T switches are “unmanaged”. All four are fan- and maintenance-free and have two redundant connections to ensure a reliable power supply.
Visit Lapp at Stand 310 in Hall 2 of SPS IPC Drives in Nuremberg between 28 and 30 November
