Industrial Ethernet Switches
Industrial Ethernet switches provide reliable network connectivity for automation systems, control panels, production facilities, utilities and demanding commercial infrastructure. Explore managed and unmanaged switches, PoE models, fibre uplinks, multi-gigabit connectivity and rugged outdoor or DIN-rail solutions.
Choose your network switch
- Speed: Match each device connection and the uplink to your bandwidth requirements. Compare 10/100 Mbps Fast Ethernet, Gigabit and multi-gigabit models; uplink speeds can differ from device-port speeds.
- Port count: Count your connected devices and allow room for expansion. Check whether the advertised total includes uplinks, and how many ports support PoE.
- PoE power: For powered devices, check the supported PoE standard, maximum power per port and shared power budget. PoE input alone does not mean a switch provides PoE output.
- Installation: Check managed features, copper or SFP uplinks, mounting options, power supply requirements and operating-temperature ratings against your installation.
For managed or specialist switches, Softcore Group Industrial Solutions can review port requirements, protocols, redundancy, environmental conditions and system compatibility before supply.
