Planet IGS-500T-E

Compact Size for More Practicability and Convenience 

PLANET IGS-500T-E Compact Industrial 5-Port 10/100/1000T Ethernet Switch, suitable for industrial use, features 5 1000Mbps auto-negotiation ports, IP40-rated rugged yet compact case and a wide-ranging redundant power system (12~55V DC). The IGS-500T-E is able to operate in any harsh environment with operating temperature ranging from -40 to 75 degrees C.

As the trend for an IIoT (Industrial Internet of Things) infrastructure continues to grow, the IGS-500T-E is designed to simplify industrial network deployment with its Plug and Play feature. Beyond offering stable and reliable fast data, it also aligns with the AIoT (Artificial Intelligence of Things) vision by enabling seamless integration of intelligent systems. This allows the collection and analysis of valuable data, empowering real-time decision-making and enhancing operational efficiency across various industrial applications.

Low Power Consumption for ESG Principles 

The IGS-500T-E adopts advanced green networking technology that aligns with Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles, offering link-on cable length power-saving and link-down power-saving features. These capabilities enable the IGS-500T-E to maintain exceptionally low power consumption even under full-load operation, effectively conserving energy while delivering outstanding performance. Compared to the IGS-500T, the IGS-500T-E can reduce energy consumption by over 50%.

With Auto Power Savings and the IEEE 802.3az Energy-Efficient Ethernet (EEE) protocol, the IGS-500T-E can automatically detect cable link status and network traffic, adjusting its power consumption accordingly. When device activity is lower, the switch consumes less power, achieving greater energy efficiency.

Triple Power Input for High Availability Network System

The IGS-500T-E features a robust triple power input system with wide-ranging voltages (12V~55V DC) incorporated into the customer’s automation network to enhance system reliability and uptime. In the example below, if one power supply fails, the hardware failover function will be activated automatically to keep powering the IGS-500T-E via the remaining power supplies alternatively, ensuring continuous operation without any interruptions.

High Switch Performance

The IGS-500T-E comes with high-performance switch architecture, making it suitable for industrial networking. With the 5 10/100/1000Mbps Ethernet ports providing non-blocking switch fabric and wire-speed throughput as high as 10Gbps and the 2K MAC address table, the IGS-500T-E can perform wire-speed packet transfer without the risk of packet loss. The flow control function enables the IGS-500T-E to provide fast and reliable data transfer.

Plug and Play

All of the RJ45 copper interfaces in the IGS-500T-E support 10/100/1000Mbps auto negotiation for optimal speed detection through RJ45 Category 6, 5 or 5e cables. The standard auto-MDI/MDI-X support can detect the type of connection to any Ethernet device without requiring special straight-through or crossover cables.

Flexible and Easy Installation with Limited Space

The compact sized IGS-500T-E is specially designed to be installed in a narrow environment, such as wall enclosure. It can be installed by fixed wall mounting or DIN rail, thereby making its usability more flexible and easier in any space-limited location.
