The IDS-710 is a 10 port Managed Ethernet Switch that can operate in industrial environments providing advanced performance and enabling real-time deterministic network operation. Eight 10/100/1000-Base-T Ethernet ports are available for networking Gigabit and Fast Ethernet devices. The two SFP slots support 10/100/1000 on Copper or 1G/2.5G on Fiber. This flexibility allows for easy adaptation to network growth and changes. The SFP slots allow for flexible network configurations using SFP transceivers supplied by Perle,Cisco or other manufacturers of MSA compliant SFPs. In addition, they make utilizing fiber is easy in environments where high levels of electromagnetic interference (EMI) is a common phenomenon, like industrial plants. This interference can cause data corruption over copper-based Ethernet links. However, data transmitted over fiber optic cable is completely immune to this type of noise ensuring optimal data transmission across the plant floor. Perle Industrial-grade Ethernet Switches are designed to stand up to extreme temperatures, surges, vibrations, and shocks found in industrial automation, government, military, oil and gas, mining and outdoor applications. These rugged fan-less switches are hardened to provide superior reliability in -10 to 60°C. Or, choose the IDS-710-XT, where every component has been designed and tested to handle operating temperatures between -40 and 70°C. The simple Plug and Play installation available in Perle's Fast Setup feature gets your Ethernet devices networked immediately. The familiar Command Line Interface (CLI), via in-band Telnet or the out-band serial console port, will be appreciated by CCNA (Cisco Certified Network Associate) and CCNP (Cisco Certified Network Professional) trained engineers. The IDS-710 Managed Switches have Enterprise-grade features for environments where extensive security, QoS, and network integration functionality is required. They can be managed with an IPv6 address and supports a comprehensive set of management functions including MRP (IEC62439-2), PROFINET, Modbus TCP, management VLAN, Management Access Lists,Password Strength requirements, RMON, N:1 port mirroring, and local alert log. All Perle Industrial Ethernet Switches only use high-end components from the leading chip manufacturers to ensure the highest level of durability and reliability. In addition, all units have a corrosion resistance aluminum case and dual redundant power input with reverse polarity and overload protection. Perle has been designing industrial hardware since 1976. We used this expertise to design the toughest Ethernet switches on the market that will keep your system running for years to come.
