RS PRO DIN Rail Mount Ethernet Switch, 5 RJ45 Ports, 10/100Mbit/s Transmission, 57V dc

RS PRO RS-525 Industrial 5 Port PoE+ 10/100 Ethernet Switch

The RS PRO range of ethernet switches continues to improve. Here we are pleased to introduce the superb 5-port ethernet switch module with 10/100Mbps transmission speed. This high-quality device is packed with operational features suitable for ethernet networks, operates on an unregulated voltage range of 44 V dc to 57 V dc, and consumes a maximum power of 4W. The switch has a compact design with an integral DIN mount and a non-conducting polyamide case with an easy wire removable screw terminal block.

What is an ethernet switch?

Ethernet switches, also known as LAN (local area network) switches, are an integral part of any computer network interface. Fixed switches have a fixed number of ports and can come in speeds Fast Ethernet (10/100 Mbps), Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000 Mbps), Ten Gigabit (10/100/1000/10000 Mbps), and 40/100 Gbps speeds. When choosing the speed, you should consider the network needs of the user and whether they will be transferring large volumes of data. This RS PRO Ethernet switch has a speed of 10/100 Mbps.

FAQs

What is the difference between managed and unmanaged switches?

Unmanaged switches let you immediately plug and play devices into your network and cannot be modified or managed. They are usually used in home networks and small businesses.

Managed switches allow for greater control and are ideal for larger businesses and organisations with a large and growing network.
