Ethernet switches

The compact 6-port Ethernet switches of the AL30 and AL31 series offer reliable and high-performance network connections for industrial automation and IIoT applications.

Robust network extension for industry and IIoT

They support related automation protocols, are designed for use directly in the field – even under harsh environmental conditions, and can be operated flexibly with or without daisy-chaining. The AL31 series also features a powerful power supply and is ideal for demanding machine and vehicle technology.

Ethernet switches in detail

  • 6-port switch (unmanaged) – compatible with related automation protocols and IIoT applications
  • Robust housing – designed for use in harsh industrial environments (IP67/IP69K)
  • High temperature and voltage tolerance – ideal for demanding industrial and mobile machinery (E20 certification)
  • High EMC resistance – for reliable operation even under strong electromagnetic interference
  • Blocking option only with PROFINET version: LLDP / PTCP (multicast address 01:80:C2:00:00:0E)
  • Suitable for image processing systems – e.g., for connecting industrial or surveillance cameras
