The IS220PPROS1B allows the switch to listen to multicast traffic and restrict it to only the ports that use it. For easier network troubleshooting and maintenance, the switch also supports advanced traffic monitoring and diagnostics. Port mirroring allows eavesdropping on data going in and out of switch ports. Used in conjunction with PC-based diagnostics or a protocol analyser, it is an invaluable tool for quickly troubleshooting device problems. In addition, the built-in Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server allows for automatic assignment of network settings to connected devices.

The IS220PPROS1B can be configured to assign static IP (Internet Protocol) addresses to specific ports, eliminating the need to manually configure connected network devices. For centralised remote management and integration with enterprise network management systems, the EKI-7656C also features Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP).Ideally suited for demanding environments, the EKI-7656C is built with industrial-grade components designed to withstand extreme shock and vibration, and includes redundant 12 to 48 VDC power inputs!

The IS220PPROS1B implements a resilient built-in fault relay output for signalling external logic or programmable logic controllers (PLCs). Its compact size allows it to be installed in the tightest of spaces using standard DIN rails or direct panel mounting. It is also cUL (UL/CSA), FCC, CE and RoHS/WEEE certified.
