New Robust Industrial-Grade Managed Switch IGS Edimax Pro

Taipei, Taiwan – Feb. 15, 2019
Edimax Technology, a leading networking solutions provider, today launches the new Edimax Pro IEC Certified Robust Industrial-Grade Managed Switches, IGS Series including IGS-5416P, IGS-5408P and IGS-5208, for network that deployed in extreme and harsh environments. The IGS series industrial web managed switches are able to withstand wide temperature range (-40oC to 75oC), have passed IEC vibration, shock, free-fall, EMS, EMC industrial-grade tests and are equipped with protection against ESD/EMI surge while offer gigabit speed, PoE, fiber optical connection and easy, smart, secure network management. These make the IGS series ideal for applications requiring high network reliability, flexible deployment and distance extension to meet the increasing demand of nowadays Industry 4.0 network infrastructure for high-bandwidth data transmission and PDs connection such as IP surveillance camera, access point and local network devices.

“Over 32 years of networking experiences, Edimax has provided SMB and SOHO switches for years in general environments. With the increasing network demand from office, business environments to the factory and outdoors for Industrial 4.0 IIoT, Smart Factory and Smart City,” said CT Hou, General Manager of OBM BU at Edimax Technology Co., Ltd. “ We introduce the new robust and durable industrial-grade managed switches, IGS Series, into our product portfolio that extends our networking solutions into the industrial infrastructure applications such as automotive, factory automation, oil and gas, mining, military, transportation, substation, energy and outdoor applications of railways, roads, tunnels, smart cities, city surveillance and traffic monitoring.”

Durable Performance with Industrial Ruggedized Design
To ensure the industrial-grade reliability, the Edimax Pro Industrial Switch IGS Series is designed with industrial-grade dedicated and outstanding electrical and mechanical components and IP30-rated compact aluminum alloy housing withstand a high degree of vibration, shock, protection against ESD/EMI surge, and operates with a wide temperature range from -40 to 75°C (-40 to 167°F) for harsh environments and even in extreme hot or freezing weather.

Reliable Network and Power Redundancy
Supporting the network redundancy with RSTP, MSTP, ERPS and LACP, the Edimax Pro Industrial Switch IGS Series protects the system with uninterrupted data transmission to ensure the network connection reliability which enables the network to provide service and operate without interruption with failover and recovery time less than 20ms. Equipped with dual redundant power inputs with overload current protection, the switches reduces downtime, maximized the availability of the network which ensures the network reliable operation.

PoE Powered Device Alive Check
PoE Powered Device (PD) Alive Check to monitor real-time status of connected PDs by ping action (sending alive-checking packets). If a PD fails to response, the switch will reboot the PD and bring it back to work, which enhances the reliability of the network and reduces administrator management burden. (PoE support is for IGS-5416P, IGS-5408P only.)

Smart Tools for Improved Network Efficiency and Security
The switch features smart, simple, web-based network monitoring tools that allow for improved network efficiency and security. Featuring with in SNMP v1/v2c/v3, PoE PD Alive Check, IGMP Snooping v1/v2/v3, DHCP Snooping, QoS, CoS, STP, 802.1Q VLAN, Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP), Rate Control, IPv4/IPv6, Port Trunk, Mirror and etc., the IGS series web managed switch makes managing your network easily and provides a cost effective, reliable, scalable and secure switch solution for industrial networks.
