Planet Industrial 4-Port 10/100TX + 2-Port 1000X SFP Ring Ethernet Switch | IFGS-620TF

4-Port Industrial Ethernet Switch with 2 SFP Ring Uplinks

Slim Type for More Practicability and Convenience 
PLANET IFGS-620TF is the first Unmanaged industrial-grade Ring Ethernet Switch, featuring four 10/100BASE-TX copper ports and two 1000BASE-X SFP fiber ports and packed in an IP30-rated rugged but compact-size case. Being able to operate under the temperature ranging from -40 to 75 degrees C and a wide-ranging redundant power system (9~48V DC or 24V AC), the IFGS-620TF provides a reliable, stable and continuous long-range data transmission and can be installed in any harsh environment without taking space into consideration.

In response to the growing demand for IIoT (Industrial Internet of Things) infrastructure, the IFGS-620TF is designed for easy deployment of industrial networks with its Plug and Play capability. Furthermore, it ensures stable and reliable fast data and power transmission. The IFGS-620TF also supports PROFINET traffic pass-through with QoS, making it an ideal choice for integrating with industrial automation systems and enhancing communication between devices in a factory setting.

Fast Recovery for Industrial Ethernet Transmission Applications
The IFGS-620TF supports the super-fast, fault-tolerant ring redundancy technology and features strong rapid self-recovery capability to prevent interruptions and external intrusions. Its dual SFP ports incorporate advanced ring data recovery through DIP switch technology and redundant power input system into customer’s industrial automation network to enhance system reliability and uptime in harsh environments. In a simple Ring network with 8 units, the recovery time of data link can be as fast as 1ms.

Due to differences in design between the IFGS-620TF One Key Ring and the ERPS Ring functions available on PLANET Industrial Managed Switch devices, the two functions are not compatible with each other. The IFGS-620TF One Key Ring function offers easier and faster deployment with DIP switch adjustments.

PROFINET Traffic with Higher Delivery Priority
The IFGS-620TF features a brand-new function that enhances support for recognizing the PROFINET traffic for higher delivery priority. Once the IFGS-620TF receives the PROFINET traffic, it will forward the PROFINET traffic first, and then handle other Ethernet traffic. With this enhanced function, the IFGS-620TF will become the ideal Industrial Unmanaged Switch for the faster PROFINET traffic.

Fiber Optic Link Capability Enables Extension of Network Deployment
The IFGS-620TF’s two SFP ports are compatible with 1000BASE-X SFP (small form factor pluggable) fiber-optic transceivers. The fiber optic uplink capability guarantees the throughput to all nodes hooked into the network and the Gigabit Ethernet distance can be extended from 550 meters (Multi-mode fiber cable) to 120 kilometers (Single-mode fiber cable). They are well suited for applications within the factory data centers and distributions. 

Thus, building a network solution of FTTH (Fiber to the Home), FTTC (Fiber to the Curb) for ISPs or FTTB (Fiber to the Building) for enterprises becomes so easy to users when long-distance deployment is employed. The IFGS-620TF can handle extremely large amounts of data in a secure topology linking to a metro switch, backbone or high-capacity server.

Dual Power Input for High Availability Network System
The IFGS-620TF features a strong dual power input system with wide-ranging voltages (9V~48V DC or 24V AC) incorporated into customer’s automation network to enhance system reliability and uptime. In the example below, when power supply 1 fails to work, the hardware failover function will be activated automatically to keep powering the IFGS-620TF via power supply 2 alternatively without any loss of operation.

Low Power Consumption for Green Networking to Implement ESG
The IFGS-620TF, adopting the advanced green networking technology, provides cable length power saving, and link-up and link-down power saving. These features make the IFGS-620TF consume very low power in full load operation mode, which helps conserve energy effectively but maintains high performance efficiently. 

With the IEEE 802.3az Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) Protocol, the IFGS-620TF can automatically detect cable link status and network traffic, and thus is able to adjust power consumption accordingly. It enables the switch to consume less power when it is less active.

Robust Protection
The IFGS-620TF provides a contact discharge of ±6KV DC and air discharge of ±6KV DC for Ethernet ESD protection. It also supports ±6KV surge immunity to improve product stability and protects users’ networks from devastating ESD attacks, making sure the flow of operation does not fluctuate.

Flexible and Easy Installation with Limited Space
The compact-sized IFGS-620TF is specially designed to be installed in a narrow environment, such as wall enclosure. It can be installed by fixed wall mounting or DIN rail, thereby making its usability more flexible and easier in any space-limited location.

Applications

One Key Ring Makes Data Transmission Uninterrupted 
The IFGS-620TF features strong rapid self-recovery capability to prevent interruptions and external intrusions. It incorporates super-fast, fault-tolerant ring redundancy technology into customer’s automation network to enhance system reliability and uptime. The IFGS-620TF can easily help system integrators with the available network infrastructure to build wireless AP, IP camera and VoIP systems where power can be centrally-controlled. In certain simple Ring network with 8 units, the recovery time of data link can be as fast as 1ms.

Ethernet Applications with Long-distance Fiber Uplink for Hardened Environment
The IFGS-620TF Unmanaged industrial-grade Ring Ethernet Switch offers four 10/100BASE-TX ports. It provides very high reliability and security features to make sure the continuous operation in harsh environments such as control cabinet of transportation, factory, outdoors and places where extreme low or high temperatures can be experienced. Moreover, the IFGS-620TF is also compatible with 1000Mbps SFP transceivers to provide a strong, stable and long-distance connection and flexible industrial networking deployment.

Fiber-optic Networking for ISPs, Enterprises, and Homes
With stable performance of data transmission and easy installation, the IFGS-620TF Industrial Gigabit fiber switch can build an ISP network solution of FTTH (Fiber to the Home), FTTC (Fiber to the Curb) for ISPs, or FTTB (Fiber to the Building) for enterprises with small office network environment.
