Description
The WECON SW05E is an industrial-grade, unmanaged Ethernet switch designed for reliable, high-speed communication in demanding industrial environments. It features 5 RJ45 ports and is specifically engineered to handle harsh conditions in factories, power stations, and automation panels.
Here is a detailed breakdown of the WECON SW05E features and specifications:
Key Features and Capabilities
Port Configuration: Equipped with 5x 10/100Mbps Ethernet ports.
WPoE Function (Wecon Power over Ethernet): Network ports 1 and 2 support WPoE, allowing the switch to power compatible Wecon devices directly through the network cable.
VLAN Isolation: Features a built-in DIP switch for VLAN functionality. When enabled, it splits the switch into two isolated networks, improving security and reducing broadcast traffic.
Industrial Robustness:
Rugged Design: Iron metal casing built for high vibration, collisions, and, in some models, extreme temperatures ranging from -40°C to 75°C.
Electromagnetic Compatibility: Designed to resist electromagnetic interference (EMI) common in factory settings.
Installation: Supports both DIN-rail mounting and wall mounting.
Technical Specifications
Power Input: 24V DC (range 18 to 28V DC).
Power Consumption: Less than 1W.
Operating Temperature: -10°C to 55°C (standard model), with some versions supporting -40°C to 75°C.
Storage Temperature: -20°C to 70°C.
Dimensions: 113.1mm x 71.0mm x 29.0mm (LxWxH).
Cooling Method: Natural convection (fanless).
Application Scenarios
The SW05E is utilized to provide stable,, and fast networking for various automation devices, including:
PLCs and HMIs: Connecting programmable logic controllers and human-machine interfaces.
VFDs and Sensors: Linking variable frequency drives and sensors.
IIoT Gateways: Essential component in IoT-based industrial networks.
Industrial Automation Systems: Used in machinery, manufacturing lines, and robotic applications.
The WECON SW05E is designed to act as a cost-effective alternative to consumer-grade switches, providing “industrial-level stability at consumer-level prices”
