Detailed data
GE IS420ESWBH3AE IONET Switch Board
The IS420ESWBH3AE is one of five available versions of the ESWB switch and features 16 independent ports supporting 10/100Base-tx connectivity and 2 fiber ports. The IS420ESWBH3A is typically mounted using a DIN rail. The IS420ESWBH3A is equipped with 2 fiber port capabilities. Like GE's industrial product line, the Unmanaged Ethernet Switches 10/100, ESWA and ESWB are designed to meet the needs of real-time industrial control solutions and are required for all IONet switches used in Mark* VIe and Mark VIeS safety control systems.
To meet the requirements of speed and features, this Ethernet switch provides the following features:
Compatibility: 802.3, 802.3u and 802.3x
10/100 Basic Copper with Auto-Negotiation
Full/Half Duplex Auto-Negotiation
100 Mbps FX Uplink Ports
HP-MDIX Auto-Sensing
LEDs to indicate the status of link presence, activity and duplex and speed of each port
Power Indicator LED
Minimum 256 KB buffer with 4 K MAC addresses
Dual power inputs for redundancy.
GE Ethernet/IONet switches are available in two hardware forms: ESWA and ESWB. Each hardware form is available in five versions (H1A through H5A) with varying fiber port configuration options, including no fiber ports, multimode fiber ports, or single-mode (long reach) fiber ports.
ESWx switches can be DIN rail mounted using one of three GE qualified DIN rail mounting clips, depending on the hardware form (ESWA or ESWB) and the DIN rail mounting orientation selected.
Frequently asked questions about the product are as follows:
-What is the GE IS420ESWBH3AE IONET Switch board?
The IS420ESWBH3AE is an I/O (input/output) network switchboard used in GE Mark VIe and Mark VI control systems. It connects and facilitates communication between different components of the control system, enabling network connectivity between controllers, sensors, and other field devices. The board is essential in providing a reliable communication infrastructure in a distributed control system (DCS).
-What does the IONET switch board do?
The IONET switch board facilitates communication between the various nodes (controllers, field devices, and other I/O devices) in the system. It manages data traffic on the system I/O network (IONET) for the transfer of control data and status information throughout the system. The board plays a key role in ensuring real-time exchange of control commands and status updates for proper system operation.
-Is the IS420ESWBH3AE compatible with other GE control systems?
The IS420ESWBH3AE is primarily used in Mark VIe and Mark VI control systems. Compatibility with other GE control systems outside of this series is not guaranteed, but other I/O network modules in the GE Mark series may provide similar functionality.
