Product Overview

EISK switches provide Plug and Play Ethernet connectivity for industrial automation systems which have unique requirements—convenient mounting, simple and dependable operation, low-voltage input power and especially cost-effective. These needs are met by the compact and rugged EISK5-100T and EISK8-100T, also known as the Skorpion family.

Utilizing state-of-the art switching technology, EISK switches provide five or eight 10/100 Mbps shielded RJ-45 ports. Each port supports the auto-negotiation protocol in order to select data rate, duplex and flow control. For half-duplex links, the Backpressure scheme is used. For full-duplex links, the PAUSE scheme is supported. All ports are Auto-MDIX compliant, allowing any port to operate as an uplink port to another switch, eliminating the need for crossover cables in the field. All these features require no operator intervention.

Skorpion Switches address the problem of convenient mounting in control panels where DIN-rail space is at a premium. Office-grade equipment is intended for desktop operation and requires a separate power supply that needs to be powered from a 120/230 Volt AC mains circuit. In this case, a shelf should be constructed to mount the unit and a duplex receptacle to be installed inside the control panel. Skorpion Switches are intended for sub-panel mounting inside the control panel. Switches are intended for sub-panel mounting and can be powered from the same control transformer that is used to power the industrial automation system equipment. Skorpion Switches can be powered from a low-voltage, wide range AC or DC power source as well. The activity LEDs on these units face the technician, thus easing trouble-shooting. The label on the unit can be written upon so port connections can be documented as to the location of connected equipment.

The auto-negotiation protocol allows Skorpion Switches to link with any compatible 10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX device. They will function with any application layer that works with Ethernet, including Modbus/TCP or Ethernet/IP. These units have built-in broadcast storm control to prevent excess broadcasts from degrading network performance.
