EDS-600 Series User’s Manual Introduction
1-2
Overview
The versatile modular design of the compact EDS-600series Ethernet switches allow users to
combine fiber and copper modules to create tailored switch solutions to fit any automation
network. The EDS-600’s modular design allows you to install up to 16 fast Ethernet ports and 3
Gigabit fiber optic ports. The Turbo Ring/Turbo Chain (recovery time < 20 ms) technology and
STP/RSTP (IEEE 802.1w/D) help to increase the reliability and availability of your industrial
Ethernet network. The EDS-600 series supports several reliable and intelligent functions,
including QoS, IGMP snooping/GMRP, VLAN, Port Trunking, SNMPv1/v2c/v3, IEEE 802.1X,
HTTPS, SSH, and RMON. Models with extended operating temperatures (-40 to 75°C) are
available. These features enable the EDS-600 series to endure any harsh industrial environment.
