SDW-550EC  

The SDW-550 is an unmanaged 5 port industrial Ethernet switch designed for easy use in heavy duty industrial applications.

The unit supports 802.1Q long packets which allows all standard industrial Ethernet protocols to be used.

The SDW-550 is designed for use in industrial applications and so has dual power inputs for 10 to 57 VDC operation.

Total galvanic isolation between each port is reinforced by the unique isolation provided between each chassis screen

helping to avoid ground loop currents. The IP21 rating ensures that the unit can be installed in locations where condensed

water may occur.

Only industrial grade components are used which gives the SDW-550 an MTBF of 1,347,000 hours and ensures a long

service life. A wide operating temperature range of -25 to +70°C (-13 to +158°F) can be achieved with no moving parts.

The SDW-550 has been tested both by Westermo and external test houses to meet many EMC, isolation, vibration and

shock standards, all to the highest levels suitable for heavy industrial environments.

Network diagnostics are simplified with the inclusion of port mirroring on one port allowing data flow through the switch

to be monitored using a network analyzer. All five ports can have data rate and flow control locked by DIP switch which

can eliminate problems with old legacy Ethernet equipment that is unable to support auto negotiation.
