Flat-Type Switch

  In today’s increasingly connected industrial landscape, reliable network infrastructure must endure extreme conditions while delivering high-performance connectivity. The flat-type industrial PoE switch represents a significant engineering advancement, specifically designed for space-constrained and environmentally challenging deployments. With its ultra-slim form factor, this switch enables flexible installation in tight enclosures such as control cabinets, roadside utility boxes, and factory automation panels—without compromising on functionality or robustness. Its design prioritizes both space efficiency and operational resilience, making it an ideal solution for smart cities, transportation networks, and industrial IoT applications where physical space is limited but network demands are high.   A key feature of this industrial-grade switch is its support for Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+), delivering up to 30W per port across eight Gigabit Ethernet interfaces. This allows the simultaneous operation of power-intensive devices such as PTZ cameras, wireless access points, and VoIP phones, simplifying cabling and reducing external power source requirements. Each port complies with IEEE 802.3af/at standards, ensuring safe and efficient power delivery alongside full-gigabit data speeds. For system integrators, this means streamlined deployments, lower infrastructure costs, and a future-proof setup capable of supporting next-generation high-power devices.   When it comes to backbone connectivity and network extension, the inclusion of dual Gigabit SFP uplinks offers critical flexibility. These fiber-optic ports enable long-distance, high-bandwidth links up to 80km, immune to electromagnetic interference—a common challenge in industrial settings like substations, railway signaling systems, and manufacturing floors. The SFP slots support a variety of optical modules, allowing seamless integration into ring, star, or hybrid topologies. This enhances network redundancy, reduces latency, and ensures stable core connectivity, which is essential for mission-critical operations where downtime is not an option.   Durability is at the core of this switch’s design, built to operate reliably in temperatures ranging from -40°C to +75°C. Its IP40-rated metal housing provides protection against dust and solid particles, while conformal coating options are available for additional corrosion resistance in harsh environments such as oil and gas facilities or coastal installations. Furthermore, the switch incorporates robust ESD and surge protection—capable of withstanding ±8kV contact discharge and ±15kV air discharge—guarding against electrostatic damage and voltage spikes. These features collectively extend the device's lifespan, reduce maintenance needs, and ensure continuous performance in outdoor or electrically noisy locations.   Installation versatility is another strong suit of this industrial Ethernet switch, supporting both DIN-rail and wall-mount options. This adaptability accelerates deployment in varied scenarios, from vertical surfaces in junction boxes to standard racks in control rooms. Tool-less mounting hardware simplifies onsite setup, allowing technicians to quickly scale networks across distributed sites. Combined with dual redundant DC power inputs (12–48V), the switch maintains operation even during power fluctuations, offering an extra layer of reliability for unattended or remote installations.   In summary, the flat-type industrial PoE switch with dual fiber uplinks stands out as a compact, rugged, and high-performance networking solution engineered for demanding environments. By integrating PoE+ capability, fiber connectivity, extreme temperature tolerance, and flexible mounting, it addresses the core requirements of modern industrial networks—where space, reliability, and scalability cannot be compromised. For integrators and operators seeking a robust, future-ready switch that excels in tough conditions, this device offers a compelling blend of innovation and resilience.
