KONTEN MS-1604X

The KONTEN MS-1604X is an industrial managed Ethernet switch with 16+4 ports and 10G uplink, designed for reliable network operation in demanding industrial environments. 16 Gigabit Ethernet ports along with four additional 1/10 Gigabit SFP+ slots offer system integrators and machine builders a compact port density combined with extended uplink bandwidth for building powerful network infrastructures.

For users, the large number of Gigabit ports enables flexible connectivity for numerous end devices, while the four 10-gigabit SFP+ uplinks provide substantial bandwidth headroom for connecting to higher-level network tiers — ideal for facilities with many distributed end devices and growing data volumes. Network redundancy through RSTP, MSTP, ERPS, and LACP ensures that in the event of a connection failure, traffic is automatically rerouted to alternative paths, minimizing downtime in production-critical networks. QoS functions via CoS and DSCP prioritize critical data streams, ensuring deterministic behavior for automation applications with real-time requirements. IGMP Snooping versions 1 through 3, supporting up to 512 groups, enables efficient management of multicast data streams, such as video transmissions on the network. The USB storage function enables configuration-free device replacement during service, significantly speeding up maintenance work. The switch also supports the industrial automation protocols Ethernet/IP and Modbus TCP for direct integration into existing PLC and control systems, while SNMP v1/v2c/v3 enables professional, centralized network management.

Thanks to its rugged construction for harsh environments, wide operating temperature range, IP30 protection class, and EN50121-4 certification, the MS-1604X is ideally suited for factory automation, railway applications, and other industrial networks where high port density and powerful 10G uplink connectivity are essential.
