MICROSENS MS450330M-G6 6-Port FE Micro Switch G6 1x 100FX ST/MM, horizontal, managed, 5x 10/100/1000T, 230VAC, microSD-Slot, RS-232 Port (mini USB) content_copy

The MICROSENS MS450330M-G6+ is an Industrial Switch with 6 ports, specifically designed for use in industrial networks. It features 5 Fast Ethernet Ports (10/100TX) and one Fiber-Port (100FX) with multimode optics (1310 nm) and ST connector, making it suitable for both copper connections and optical transmission paths. The devices are manageable and offer comprehensive network control via SNMP, Web-Interface, and CLI. Additional features such as VLANs and QoS enable targeted network segmentation and prioritization of data traffic. Power supply is via 230VAC, internally integrated, and the device is designed for horizontal mounting, for example in enclosures or on workbenches.

Applications

The switch is designed for industrial applications where a stable and reliable network connection is required. This includes production facilities, automation systems, building automation, or security monitoring systems. The combination of copper and fiber ports makes it flexible to use, for example, to connect control units over long distances using optical transmission, or for local networking of devices via Ethernet cables. The management functions support monitoring and control of the network, especially in complex environments with multiple devices.

Functions and Equipment in Detail

The device offers 5 RJ45 ports for 10/100 Mbit/s connections, suitable for connecting PCs, sensors, controls, or other network devices. The Fiber-Port with ST connector and multimode optics (1310 nm) enables connection via fiber optic cables, which is particularly advantageous in environments with high interference or long transmission distances. The management functions include SNMP, Web-Interface, and CLI, allowing the switch to be configured and monitored via various protocols. Support for VLANs allows logical separation of network segments, while QoS ensures prioritization of specific data streams, for example for real-time applications.

Technology Explained Simply

The switch operates according to the Fast Ethernet standard (10/100 Mbit/s) and is therefore sufficient for most industrial applications where high bandwidth is not required. The fiber connection via 1310 nm multimode optics offers high resistance to interference and is suitable for transmission distances of up to several hundred meters, depending on cable quality. The internally integrated power supply for 230VAC reduces the number of external components and simplifies installation. The horizontal mounting allows flexible placement, for example in enclosures or on workbenches, without requiring vertical mounting in a 48,3 cm ( 19 inch ) rack.

Compatibility and Accessories

The switch is compatible with a switching power supply 54V/1.2A 65W, specifically developed for PoE+-micro switches. This power supply is primarily connected via Euro-8 cables and delivers 54VDC/1.2A via a Combicon connector. It serves as a replacement or additional power supply if PoE+ support is required, which is not included in the standard model.

Mounting and Installation

Horizontal mounting of the device requires no special fastening technique; it can be placed directly into enclosures or on stable surfaces. Power supply is via the integrated 230VAC power supply, which is connected directly to the socket. Network connections are realized via RJ45 connectors (for copper) and ST connectors (for fiber), allowing cabling with standard cables. Configuration is done via the Web-Interface, CLI, or SNMP, with the exact procedure described in the device documentation.

Advantages in Operation

The switch provides a reliable network connection in industrial environments with low maintenance. The management functions enable centralized control and monitoring, allowing network issues to be quickly identified and resolved. The combination of copper and fiber ports increases flexibility in network design. Horizontal mounting and the integrated power supply reduce installation effort and the number of required components. Support for VLANs and QoS ensures structured and prioritized data transmission, which is particularly beneficial in complex installations.
