Country of origin: Germany
Features:
Full managed L2 switch; redundant ring reconfiguration; PROFINET diagnostics; e‑mail traps; CLI/Web/TIA configuration.
Application Scenarios:
Large factory‑floor Ethernet backbones, redundant ring topologies, integration with SIMATIC PLCs.
Construction & Material:
Compact metal enclosure, IP30.
Working Principle:
Store‑and‑forward switching with managed VLAN, QoS, SNMP and integrated Redundancy Manager for sub‑100 ms ring recovery.
Installation Requirements:
DIN‑rail or wall‑mount; dual 24 V DC feeds fused at ≤1.1 A; multimode fiber (62.5/125 µm or 50/125 µm) up to 3 km for BFOC ports.
Precautions:
-
Product is discontinued—plan migration to successor XC216‑4C.
-
Optical ports require proper BFOC connector cleaning.
-
Keep ambient ≤60 °C and humidity ≤95 % non‑condensing.
-
Lead content mandates compliant disposal per WEEE.
