Overview

The ToughNet TN-5516A/5518A series M12 managed Ethernet switches

are designed for industrial applications in harsh environments. The TN

series switches use M12 connectors to ensure tight, robust connections,

and guarantee reliable operation against environmental disturbances,

such as vibration and shock. The wide 24 to 110 VDC with dual power

input increases the reliability of your communications.

The TN-5516A series includes PoE and non-PoE switches.

• TN-5516A series: 16 Fast Ethernet M12 ports.

• TN-5516A-8PoE series: 8 Fast Ethernet and 8 PoE Fast Ethernet M12

ports.

The TN-5518A series also includes PoE and non-PoE switches.

• TN-5518A series: 16 Fast Ethernet M12 ports, supports additional 2

Gigabit ports located on the bottom of the unit, with or without

bypass function.

• TN-5518A-8PoE series: 8 Fast Ethernet and 8 PoE Fast Ethernet M12

ports, supports additional 2 Gigabit ports located on the bottom of the

unit, with or without bypass function.

The -40 to 75°C operating temperature and IP54 rated waterproof

enclosure allow deployment in harsh environments. The

TN-5516A/5518A series Ethernet switches are compliant with mandatory

sections of the EN 50155 standard covering operating temperature,

power input voltage, surge, ESD, and vibration, as well as conformal

coating and power insulation, making the switches suitable for a variety

of industrial applications.
