Managed Switches for your industrial network

In this category you will find a selection of industrial managed switches from the manufacturers PLANET, ORingNet and Korenix. Our range includes network switches with various port configurations, including the most common port counts with 8 port, 16 port and 24 port managed switches. Whether you're running a medium-sized network or an extensive industrial infrastructure, we have the right solutions to meet your needs!

Industrial managed switches are used in medium and large networks where special security and reliability are required. They are equipped with extensive and powerful hardware, which often have additional features besides the pure Ethernet ports, e.g. alarm relays, console interface, USB interface for firmware updates and similar. Managed switches also offer detailed device and port configuration via web or software interface. This allows them to be optimized for a wide variety of applications.

Flexibility and control:
Why you should rely on managed switches

In the modern business world, a reliable and efficient network is critical. A solid network infrastructure not only enables smooth communication and data transfer, but also supports business-critical applications and ensures the security of sensitive information. In this context, manageable network switches play an essential role. 

Managed switches give you the flexibility and control you need to optimally manage your network. Unlike unmanaged switches, managed switches have advanced features and configuration options that allow you to customize your network to meet your unique needs. 

Virtual Local Area Networks (VLANs) for enhanced network security 

A key benefit of managed switches is the ability to set up Virtual Local Area Networks (VLANs). VLANs allow you to divide your network into separate logical areas. This division offers numerous benefits, including improved security, optimized bandwidth utilization and simplified network management. By separating traffic, you can restrict access to specific resources and prioritize performance for different applications.

In addition to the VLAN, managed switches offer advanced security features such as Access Control Lists (ACLs). ACLs allow you to control access to a network based on IP addresses or other criteria. By implementing security policies, you can use them to protect your network from unauthorized access or detect potential threats.

Network traffic monitoring and management 

Managed switches also offer advanced network traffic monitoring and management capabilities. They allow you to monitor traffic in real time and identify bottlenecks or bottlenecks. In addition, they offer Quality of Service (QoS) features that allow you to prioritize bandwidth for specific applications. This ensures consistent performance for business-critical applications such as VoIP telephony or video streaming. 

Managed switch configuration and management 

Managed switches are typically configured and managed via a web-based user interface or dedicated management software. This gives you comprehensive control over your network and makes it easy to add, change or remove devices. In addition, managed switches often support the integration of network management tools that provide you with centralized management and monitoring. 

Cost aspect: The added value of managed switches 

Although managed switches tend to be a bit more costly than unmanaged switches, they offer a variety of benefits that are important to many businesses. They allow you to customize and optimize your network to meet the specific needs of your business.

Industrial Automation with Managed Gigabit Switches:
8 Port & 16 Port Comparison 

In the demanding industrial environment, a reliable and efficient network is of great importance for smooth communication and control of devices and equipment. Managed Gigabit Switches offer solutions specifically designed for industrial environments to ensure optimal connectivity and control. Here, we take a closer look at 8 port and 16 port as the most common port counts of managed gigabit switches. In the following, we will highlight their respective advantages and possible applications in industrial environments - short & compact!

Flexibility and expandability with 8 Port Managed Gigabit Switches

8 Port Managed Gigabit Switches provide sufficient port count for mid-sized industrial environments. They enable more flexible network configuration and provide scalability for future growth. With more ports, companies can easily integrate new devices and applications and optimize the performance of their network. This allows the network to be customized to meet specific requirements at any time. 

Additionally, they provide a good balance between port count and scalability. They enable enterprises to expand their network incrementally by seamlessly integrating new devices or departments without having to reconfigure the entire network infrastructure. This allows companies to adapt their networks to growing business volumes and new requirements.

In addition, managed switches support VLANs, which enables improved network segmentation and security. This allows the network to be segregated into logical groups as traffic is isolated between VLANs. Enterprises can set different security policies for each VLAN, controlling access to specific data and resources. In addition, 8-port managed switches typically offer QoS features that allow enterprises to control the prioritization of traffic. This allows critical applications or VoIP services to be prioritized to ensure optimal performance and quality.

Powerful Networks with 16 Port Managed Gigabit Switches

16 Port Managed Gigabit Switches offer high port density and are optimal for large-scale industrial applications and larger production environments. With their multiple ports, they provide maximum flexibility for integrating multiple devices and endpoints. Enterprises can efficiently connect a variety of devices and applications, ensuring optimal bandwidth utilization and fast data transfer. 

Managed switches with 16 ports enable optimal use of available bandwidth and efficient data transfer between devices. Enterprises can easily handle demanding applications and traffic flows without experiencing bottlenecks or latency issues. This ensures high bandwidth utilization. 

In addition, 16-port managed switches provide centralized network management that enables administrators to efficiently configure, monitor and manage. Through a single user interface, administrators can configure switches, monitor network traffic, and quickly identify and resolve problems. This saves time and simplifies the management of a large network.
