Suitable for Transportation Networking Applications
PLANET ITS-5216-8P2TB-WV, an Industrial Layer 2+ Managed Ethernet Switch, comes with an IP50-rated industrial case, 8-port 10/100/1000T 802.3at PoE+ and 2-port 10/100/1000T M12 interfaces, providing a high level of immunity against electromagnetic interference and heavy electrical surges which are usually found on plant floors or in curb-side traffic control cabinets. The ITS-5216-8P2TB-WV can be easily mounted on a wall taking up less space. Each of the eight Gigabit PoE+ ports provides 36 watts of power, which means a total power budget of up to 100 watts can be utilized simultaneously without considering the different types of PoE applications being employed. It also provides a quick, safe and cost-effective Power over Ethernet network solution to IP security surveillance for small businesses and enterprises.
Vibration-proof and Dustproof M12 Ethernet Connector
The ITS-5216-8P2TB-WV is equipped with 10-port 10/100/1000BASE-T auto-negotiation dustproof M12 connector. The M12 connector provides tight and strong connection, and guarantees stable Ethernet operation performance under high vibration and shock environment. It comes with the industrial protection rating of IP50 capable of withstanding humidity, dirt, dust, shock, vibrations, heat and cold. The ITS-5216-8P2TB-WV is able to operate under the temperature range from -40 to 70°C. All these features ensure the highest level of reliability for mission-critical applications in any difficult environment.
Bypass Relay Prevents Link Failure During Power Loss
Bypass relay is set to bypass the failed switch to the next normal switch to prevent the network from power loss. The ITS-5216-8P2TB-WV supports the bypass relay function on the one pair of Gigabit ports. When the switch is operating normally, the Gigabit ports operate in the same way as the other ports, processing and forwarding Ethernet packets. Bypass relay ports allow network traffic to continue to flow in the event of a power outage. It also can go back to the normal mode when power is back and the switch is completely booting up to avoid another network loss.
Dual Power Input for High Availability Network System
The ITS-5216-8P2TB-WV features a strong dual power input system (Dual 24V~110V DC) incorporated into customer’s automation network to enhance system reliability and uptime. For example, when DC Power 1 fails to work, the hardware failover function will be activated automatically to keep powering the ITS-5216-8P2TB-WV via DC Power 2 alternatively without any loss of operation.
Redundant Ring, Fast Recovery for Critical Network Applications
The ITS-5216-8P2TB-WV supports redundant ring technology and features strong, rapid self-recovery capability to prevent interruptions and external intrusions. It incorporates advanced ITU-T G.8032 ERPS (Ethernet Ring Protection Switching) technology, Spanning Tree Protocol (802.1s MSTP), and redundant power input system into customer’s industrial automation network to enhance system reliability and uptime in harsh factory environments. In a simple Ring network, the recovery time of data link can be as fast as 500ms.
Convenient and Smart ONVIF Devices with Detection Feature
PLANET has newly developed an awesome feature — ONVIF Support — which is specifically designed for co-operating with video IP surveillances. From the ITS-5216 series GUI, clients just need one click to search and show all of the ONVIF devices via network application. In addition, clients can upload floor images to the switch series, making the deployments of surveillance and other devices easy for planning and inspection purposes. Moreover, clients can get real-time surveillance’s information and online/offline status; the PoE reboot can be controlled from the GUI.
Centralized Power Management for Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ Networking
To fulfill the needs of higher power required PoE+ network applications with Gigabit speed transmission, the ITS-5216-8P2TB-WV features high-performance Gigabit IEEE 802.3at PoE+ (up to 36 watts) on PoE+ ports. It perfectly meets the power requirements of PoE VoIP phone, PoE Wireless AP and all kinds of PoE IP cameras such as IR, PTZ, speed dome cameras and even box type IP cameras with a built-in fan and heater for high power consumption. The ITS-5216-8P2TB-WV’s PoE capabilities also help to reduce deployment costs for network devices as a result of freeing from restrictions of power outlet locations. Power and data switching are integrated into one unit, delivered over a single cable and managed centrally. It thus eliminates cost for additional AC wiring and reduces installation time.
Built-in Unique PoE Functions for Surveillance Management
As an Industrial managed PoE Switch for surveillance network, the ITS-5216-8P2TB-WV features the following intelligent PoE management functions:
- PD Alive Check
- PoE Schedule
- Scheduled Power Recycling
Intelligent Alive Check for Powered Device
The ITS-5216-8P2TB-WV can be configured to monitor connected PD’s status in real time via ping action. Once the PD stops working and responding, the ITS-5216-8P2TB-WV will recycle the PoE port power and bring the PD back to work. It also greatly enhances the reliability in that the PoE port will reset the PD power, thus reducing administrator’s management burden.
PoE Schedule for Energy Saving
Besides being used for IP surveillance, the ITS-5216-8P2TB-WV is certainly applicable to build any PoE network including VoIP and wireless LAN. Under the trend of energy saving worldwide and contributing to the environmental protection on the Earth, the ITS-5216-8P2TB-WV can effectively control the power supply besides its capability of giving high watts power. The “PoE schedule” function helps you to enable or disable PoE power feeding for each PoE port during specified time intervals and it is a powerful function to help SMBs and enterprises save energy and budget.
Scheduled Power Recycling
The ITS-5216-8P2TB-WV allows each of the connected PoE IP cameras or PoE wireless access points to reboot at a specific time each week. Therefore, it will reduce the chance of IP camera or AP crash resulting from buffer overflow.
Cybersecurity Network Solution to Minimize Security Risks
The ITS-5216-8P2TB-WV supports SSHv2 and TLSv1.3 protocols to provide strong protection against advanced threats. It includes a range of cybersecurity features such as DHCP Snooping, IP Source Guard, ARP Inspection Protection and 802.1x port-based network access control, RADIUS and TACACS+ user accounts management, SNMPv3 authentication, and so on to complement it as an all-security solution.
