Introduction
The industrial 5-port Ethernet switches of the EDS-205A series support IEEE 802.3 and IEEE 802.3u/x with 10/100M full/half duplex, MDI/MDI-X auto-sensing. The EDS-205A series has 12/24/48 VDC (9.6 to 60 VDC) redundant power inputs that can be simultaneously connected to live DC power sources. These switches are designed for harsh industrial environments, such as marine (DNV/LR/ABS/NK), railway stations, motorways or mobile applications (EN 50121-4/NEMA TS2/e-Mark) or hazardous areas (Class I Div. 2, ATEX Zone 2) that comply with FCC, UL and CE standards.

The EDS-205A switches are available with a standard operating temperature range of -10 to 60 °C or with a wide operating temperature range of -40 to 75 °C. All models are subjected to a 100 per cent temperature test. All models are 100 per cent burn-in tested to ensure that they meet the specific requirements of industrial automation control applications. In addition, the EDS-205A switches have DIP switches to enable or disable broadcast storm protection, providing another level of flexibility for industrial applications.
