Konten ET-0802C-M12

Industrial Unmanaged PoE+ Gigabit Ethernet Switch with 10 M12 Ports and Relay Bypass Function for Railway Applications

The Konten ET-0802C-M12 is an industrial unmanaged PoE+ Gigabit Ethernet switch designed to provide reliable network communication in railway vehicles, transportation systems and other demanding industrial environments. Equipped with eight 10/100 Mbps M12 ports supporting IEEE 802.3at PoE+ and two 10/100/1000 Mbps Gigabit M12 ports with integrated Relay Bypass function, the switch offers a robust networking solution for applications where continuous communication and high availability are essential. The vibration-resistant M12 connectors ensure secure and stable connections even under challenging mechanical conditions, making the switch ideal for mobile applications. The integrated Relay Bypass function maintains network communication even in the event of a power interruption, helping to maximize system availability in critical applications.

The ET-0802C-M12 has been developed for continuous operation in harsh environments and complies with the EN50155 standard for railway applications. Its durable SECC metal enclosure provides IP40 protection as standard and is also available in an IP54 version. With an extended operating temperature range of -40 °C to +75 °C, the switch ensures reliable operation in both extremely cold and hot environments. Redundant, galvanically isolated PoE power inputs combined with integrated protection against overcurrent and reverse polarity further improve operational safety and ensure stable power delivery to connected network devices.

For efficient data transmission, the switch uses a Store-and-Forward switching architecture and provides a 5.6 Gbps switching capacity, an 8,000-entry MAC address table, and a 4 Mbit packet buffer. Auto-Negotiation and Auto MDI/MDI-X simplify integration into existing Ethernet infrastructures and enable fast installation. Each PoE port delivers up to 30 watts of output power, while the total PoE power budget reaches 165 watts, allowing multiple PoE-powered devices to be supplied and operated reliably through the same switch.

LED indicators for power supply, system status, port activity and PoE output enable quick monitoring of operating conditions. The switch supports wall mounting and optional DIN rail mounting, allowing flexible integration into different industrial systems. With its combination of rugged M12 connections, Gigabit uplinks, integrated PoE+ power supply, Relay Bypass function and railway certification, the Konten ET-0802C-M12 is ideally suited for railway vehicles, transportation infrastructure, industrial automation, mobile machinery and other applications requiring reliable Ethernet communication and maximum network availability.
