Managed Ethernet Switch - 16 Ports

Description
The ConneXium TCSESM163 family of 16 Port Managed Ethernet Switch supports Ethernet
10 Mbit/s and Fast Ethernet 100 Mbit/s communications and includes 3 models. All models of
the 16 port Switch support copper cable connections (TX) using RJ45 Connectors, and 2
models include 2 (FX) Fiber Optic cable ports for applications requiring long cable distances
or for environments with high electrical noise. These Fiber Optic ports use SC connectors,
and switch models are available with either Multi Mode or Single Mode types fiber optics.

The Managed Switch provides a range of services for management, diagnostics, security,
performance, timing, and redundancy, allowing the switch operation to be tailored to the
application. The use of Managed Switches in Industrial Ethernet networks helps to eliminate
data collisions, increase network performance and availability, provide diagnostic and
operation information, while simplifying network design in industrial automation applications.

Overview
The ConneXium model TCSESM163 family of Managed Ethernet Switch are layer 2 devices that
connects Ethernet devices to an Industrial Ethernet network. A description for the capabilities and
features that are available with the ConneXium Managed Ethernet Switches is provided below.

Management Features Command Line Interface( CLI) - Switch configuration using

commands. The interface is accessed via telnet or serial connection to
a V24 serial port.
Telnet Server - Used to access the switch to configure it using the CLI
over an Ethernet connection.
Web Management - Enables switch configuration and diagnostics
using a web based interface through a standard web browser.
Remote Monitoring (RMON) - An industry standard specification
which supports monitoring and protocol analysis of local area
networks. Used with a network management station that supports
RMON probe functionality to monitor data at a switch port.
Backup - Switch configuration backup to a memory backup adapter
(EAM), to a server via TFTP, or to a PC.
DHCP Option 82 - Allows a DHCP server that supports option 82 to
assign the same IP address to any device connected to a particular
switch port.

Diagnostic Features Log Files - HTML file that logs up to 2000 events with time stamp,
System File, HTML file that contains diagnostic information

LED Indicators - For power, link/activity, fault detection and

redundancy manager.
Alarm Relay - External relay contact that alarms on configured
switch status, such as power source fault detection, temperature, ring
redundancy, connection error detection etc.

SNMP Traps - User can configure switch to send SNMP traps for
configured switch parameters to a device with Network Management
Software that support SNMP Traps.
Port Mirroring - Copies data passing through one port
(source) to another port to allow troubleshooting with a network
protocol analysis tool.
. IEEE 802.1ab Topology Discovery - Enables the automatic detection
of devices and network topology mapping.

Redundancy Features RSTP (Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol) - Industry standard protocol
(IEEE 802.1) enabling deployment of ring and mesh architectures.

MRP ( Media Redundancy Protocol) - An IEC standard (IEC

62439) enabling deployment of ring architectures.

HIPER-Ring ( High Performance Redundancy) - A propriety protocol

for ring configurations.

Ring Coupling – Interconnecting 2 ring that are using either the MRP
or HIPER-Ring protocols.

Dual Input Power Supply - Dual connections to the switch power

Supply.

Security Features Port Security (IP and MAC address based) – Configuration setting
that restricts port access to devices with defined IP address or MAC
addresses.

SNMP V3 - Allows SNMP password encryption

Performance Optimization Message Priority - Supports 4 priority queues so that high

priority data traffic is not disrupted during times with high data traffic.

Quality of Service (QoS) - Provides different priority levels to

different applications, users, or data flow, to maintain a certain
level of performance.

Port Priority - Data packets with no priority information will be

transmitted according to the priority of the port.

Flow Control - Limits traffic during times of high traffic and transmits a
“Pause” frame to the end device to indicate that the device should stop
sending data.

Differentiated Service Code Points ( DSCP) A 6-bit field in the

header of IP packets to classify and prioritize traffic.

Fast Aging after Disconnection - All device addresses learned by a

port are removed from the switch buffer if the link goes down.

Filtering Traffic Limiter - Used to limit the data rate for different types of
traffic, such as Broadcast and Multicast packets a switch
port can receive or transmit. Reduces the harmful effects of data storms
on the network.

Virtual Local Area Networks ( VLAN) – Allows the creation of a

logical subgroup of devices within a larger network in accordance with
IEEE 802.1Q. Used to limit broadcasts and increase communication
security.

Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) Snooping - Multicast

management protocol that allows the switch to analyze incoming IGMP
packets and create a multicast list of which ports belong to which multicast
group. As a result, multicast messages are only sent out ports to
which devices are connected that need a message.

Time Protocols Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) – Switch timing is

synchronized to a network master clock.

Precision Time Protocol (PTP) - IEEE1588 standard for time

synchronization. Similar to SNTP but more precise.

EtherNet /IP Adapter Capability - The ability to function as an EtherNet/IP adapter for
implicit real-time I/O messaging and explicit messaging. Enables PLC access
to switch diagnostic data.

Network Architectures
Managed switches can be deployed in ring architectures to increase the networks ability to recover
from an inoperable device or cable break. The Connexium managed switches include 3 redundancy
protocols - RSTP, MRP, and HIPER-Ring,.

Below are 2 of the network ring architectures that the Connexium Managed Switches currently support.

Single Ring
Represents a control network in a single ring
structure to provide cable redundancy.

Dual-Ring/Single Message (Ring

Coupled)
Represents a control network in a Dual ring
structure that provides greater redundancy
than single ring
