Volktek Corporation Managed Industrial Ethernet Switches IEN-8648A

Volktek - INS-8648A is a high-performance 8-port 10/100/1000 RJ45 downlink, and 4-port GbE SFP uplink managed industrial switch designed for communication between controllers and devices in automation settings. It is used with multi-axis robots and their peripherals such as PLCs, HMIs, and legacy devices. It offers auto-negotiation on all its ports and Modbus TCP to aggregate devices easily in industrial Ethernet applications. The switch offers various in-built traffic optimization and network performance features to prioritize important data packets, prevent the loss of data during communication, and stabilize transmission. It has a topology map to visualize the network and complies with cybersecurity standards to safeguard the network from vulnerabilities. The RJ45 type console port allows outbound network troubleshooting when networks go wrong. The USB port supports firmware upgrade, keeps configuration settings safe, and downloads log files to manage network status offline. The switch optimizes traffic with Storm, and Flow Control, and QoS - it prioritizes industrial data packets, prevents the loss of data during communication, and offers a stable transmission. It has a topology map to visualize the network and complies with cybersecurity standards to safeguard the network from vulnerabilities. This switch is built with industrial-grade components and enclosed in an IP40 aluminum case with high thermal conductivity, which protects the device from tools and hazards. Designed to withstand vibration, shock, free fall, interference, and temperatures ranging from -40˚C~75˚C (-40°F~167°F), it suits extreme industrial applications. To ensure reliability the redundant power supply and alarm relay contact on the terminal block ensures non-stop operations and issues alerts if power fails.
