Overview
The EDS-G308 series is equipped with 8 Gigabit Ethernet ports and up to
2 fiber optic ports, making it ideal for applications that demand high
bandwidth. The EDS-G308 series provides an economical solution for
your industrial Gigabit Ethernet connection, and the built-in relay warning
function alerts maintainers when power failures or port breaks occur. In
addition, the 4-pin DIP switches can be used to configure the following
features: broadcast storm protection (BSP), jumbo frame rate (Jumbo),
and IEEE 802.3az energy saving. The EDS-G308 series includes 2 models:
one with an operating temperature range of -10 to 60°C, and the other
one with an extended operating temperature range of -40 to 75°C. These
2 models have passed a 100% burn-in test to ensure that they fulfill the
special needs of industrial automation control. The EDS-G308 series can
be easily installed with DIN-Rail mounting as well as distribution boxes.
