Introduction

The EDS-405A/408A-PN are 5 and 8-port managed Ethernet switches with PROFINET enabled. With embedded PROFINET, the PN switches can be easily integrated into the Simatic Step 7 engineering tool. It is more convenient for automation engineers to configure through Step 7 and monitor with automation HMIs. The EDS-405A/408A-PN switches with fast booting, Turbo Ring and Turbo Chain fast-recovery technology, can optimize PROFINET network performance. Moxa’s PROFINET switches also support a variety of useful management functions, such as IGMP snooping, IEEE 802.1Q VLAN, QoS, port mirroring, SNMP, bandwidth management, and warning by email or relay.
