Helmholz
Gigabit on three levels
The Flextra Ethernet switch for up to 1000 Mbit (Gigabit) complements the 'Flextra' switch product line from Helmholz.
Its stepped design and the associated vertical cable routing enable flexible and space-saving installation. The Ethernet switch has 16 RJ45 ports and can be easily integrated into the existing network: Once plugged in, it is immediately ready for operation thanks to Plug&Play. The Ethernet connection cables are routed directly from the switch into the cable duct, making the switches easy to install even in small control cabinets and sub-distribution boards. The tool-free push-in connection for the power supply provides support.
An LED display on the front of the Helmholz switch provides status information. The unmanaged Ethernet switch is suitable for Profinet networks. The LLPD (neighbourhood detection) and PTCP (time synchronization) functions are handled correctly with the switch in accordance with the Profinet standard. The unmanaged Ethernet switch therefore complies with Profinet Conformance Class A.
