X-Ring Plus support up to 250 switches per ring, up to 99 rings. Case Communications Industrial Switches are designed to work in critical network environment using IP 30 enclosures and tested to extensive Industrial EMI and Safety standards. Each Case Communications Switch has passed a 1.2KVA Hi-Pot abnormality test.

X-Ring technology

The IFE 8T 2G MXE uses the patent-pending “X-Ring” feature which provides an auto-recovery-path within 10ms when the primary network path has failed. The ring can be established with up to twenty Five  (25) Industrial Switches using X-Ring and up to 250 Switches per Ring using X-Ring+.

Case Communications Dual-Homing feature can ensure two X-Ring groups with redundant back up when connected to a backbone switch. Click here for X-Ring Application Notes, Click here for X-Ring Examples.

The Case Communications IFE 8T 2G MXE is a 8×10/ 100TX + 2 10/ 100/ 1000T/ mini-GBIC Combo w/X-Ring Managed Industrial Ethernet Switch with SNMP Management. The mini-GBIC slots are able to connect 100/1000M Fibre SFP transceivers.

Features include QoS for 4 queues, 801.q VLAN, IGMP snooping and query mode as well as SNTP and SMTP. An Industrial Switch relay contact to Alarm system can immediately notify of Power failure and/or Port down events. In case of events, the Case Communications IFE 8T 2G MXE will immediately send an email to a pre-defined addresses.

An Industrial Switch relay contact to Alarm system can immediately notify of Power failure and/or Port down events. In case of events, the Case Communications IFE 8T 2G MXE will immediately send an email to a pre-defined addresses.

The IFE 8T 2G MX is ideal for use in Automation, Transportation, Semi-conductor manufacturing and heavy industrial factory and other factory assembly lines.

The IFE 8T 2G MX is particularly suitable for real IP-multicasting with Video Encoder/Decoder for Traffic Control, MOD application.
