EKF Electronics
Switch uses SPE transmission standard
The '7L600' single-pair Ethernet switch from EKF is a 'ModBlox7'-based product. It is particularly suitable as a multifunctional gateway in IIoT or retrofit applications, but can also be used as an edge computer for (real-time) data pre-processing and data collection.
The single-pair Ethernet switch from EKF is equipped with seven 100 BASE-T1 ports and two 1000BASE-T uplinks in accordance with IEC 63171-6. The SPE ports are hi-pot isolated and fully compatible with the Open Alliance BroadR-Reach standard. Inside the switch is the '88Q5072' Ethernet controller from Marvell, which supports AVB and TSN and also enables uncomplicated configuration via local or remote management functions. Optionally, the switch can be extended with an ARM-based mezzanine controller card, which is suitable for additional protocol support, switch management and real-time data processing, for example, and thus transforms the switch into an edge computer.
