Overview

The EDS-205A/208A series of industrial Ethernet switches are entry-level

industrial 5 and 8-port Ethernet switches that support IEEE 802.3, IEEE

802.3u, and IEEE 802.3x with 10/100M, full/half-duplex, and MDI/MDIX

auto-sensing.

The EDS-205A/208A series provides 12/24/48 VDC (9.6 to 60 VDC)

redundant power inputs. The switches are available with a standard

operating temperature range from -10 to 60°C, or with a wide operating

temperature range from -40 to 75°C, and IP30 metal housing makes

them rugged enough for any harsh industrial environment.

To provide greater versatility for use with applications from different

industries, the EDS-205A/208A also allow users to enable or disable

broadcast storm protection with DIP switches on the outer panel.

The EDS-205A/208A switches can be easily installed with DIN-Rail

mounting as well as distribution boxes. The DIN-rail mounting capability

and IP30 metal housing with LED indicators make the plug-and-play

EDS-205A/208A switches reliable and easy to use.
