Phoenix Contact: Unmanaged Switches With New Capabilities
September 9, 2020
Automation engineers can create leaner, more efficient applications with the new FL SWITCH 1000 family. Phoenix Contact has added a new series of unmanaged switches with a compact form factor, gigabit speeds, automation protocol traffic prioritization, and flexible installation options.
Today’s networks have more devices than ever before, which leads to heavier network traffic. The FL SWITCH 1000 features automation protocol prioritization (APP), making it easy to prioritize the most important traffic. Mission-critical industrial communications, such as Ethernet/IP, PROFINET, Modbus/TCP, and BACnet, are sent through the network first.
