GE IS420ESWBH3A Ethernet IONet Switch Module

1. High Reliability:
   • Supports redundant power inputs (typically connected to 28V DC power) to enhance power supply reliability.
   • Equipped with LED indicators for real-time monitoring of port status and power supply, facilitating prompt fault detection and ensuring stable system operation.
2. Efficient Data Transmission:
   • Features 10/100Base-TX RJ45 ports with automatic negotiation capabilities, adapting to the speed and duplex mode of connected devices for rapid data transfer.
3. Industrial Adaptability:
   • Designed for DIN rail mounting or panel installation via screw holes, offering flexible mounting options.
   • Operates in environments with 5%–95% relative humidity (non-condensing), suitable for harsh industrial settings.

1. Multi-Port Design:
   • 16 copper 10/100Base-TX ports for connecting multiple devices.
   • 100Mbps FX uplink port for network expansion.
2. Protocol Compatibility:
   • Complies with Ethernet standards (IEEE 802.3, 802.3U, 802.3x) for seamless integration with compatible network devices.
3. Data Buffering:
   • Minimum 256kb buffer with 4k MAC addresses for efficient handling of multicast and broadcast packets. Buffers excess data streams during peak traffic to prevent loss.

1. Power Industry:
   • Enables data communication between devices in power plants (e.g., gas turbine control systems), ensuring precise control and stable operation.
2. Petrochemical Industry:
   • Integrates with automation systems for real-time data transmission between instruments and controllers, optimizing production monitoring.
3. Steel Industry:
   • Connects devices in automated steel production lines for centralized data management, improving efficiency and product quality.

1. Data Reception and Forwarding:
   • Upon receiving a data frame, the switch checks its destination MAC address against an internal table to determine the appropriate output port, ensuring accurate device-to-device communication.
2. Auto-Negotiation Mechanism:
   • Ports automatically negotiate 10/100Mbps speed and full/half-duplex modes with connected devices to optimize performance.
3. Data Buffering Process:
   • Buffers multicast and broadcast packets when multiple incoming data streams are detected, processing them sequentially to maintain network stability and prevent data loss.
