IS420ESWBH3A Mark VIeS IONet Switch

Industrial Ethernet Switch IS420ESWBH3A is part of the Mark VIe Safety Control System designed

by General Electric. This switch does not have any fiber ports but has sixteen copper ports, the copper ports

are 10/100Base-TX RJ45 ports. The primary operation of the switch is to perform as a level one Ethernet switch

which will center on the capability to buffer multicast and broadcast packets. There should be enough space to

allow for the buffer of one packet per port; if multiple incoming streams are being sent to the switch, it can

only accept one incoming stream out of the multiple streams and will buffer the remaining streams for later transmission.

There are LED indicators on the IS420ESWBH3A switch. There is a power LED and the remaining LEDs are

activity and link functions. When the link LED is solid yellow it indicates that a 10 MB link is being

used and when solid green a 100 MB link is being used, and no LED light indicates that there is no link. The

colors for the activity LED are also green and yellow but they will flash, when the LED flashes green it indicates that the

activity is at full duplex and when flashing yellow the activity is at half duplex.

The IS420ESWBH3A switch can be mounted in a variety of ways, the switch can be DIN-rail mounted in a parallel or

perpendicular application and also has the possibility to be panel mounted if needed. Please note that when the switch

is DIN-rail mounted there are different clips needed which are the 259B2451BVP1 and 259B2451BVP4 clips.
