Description

Rockwell Automation’s Cat5e shielded and unshielded cable is designed to supply a

reliable network connection in harsh surroundings. The high speed data rate

allows more data to be transferred within a shorter period of time. By optimizing

balance of twisted pair conductors inside a robust thermoplastic elastomer (TPE)

jacket, data is protected from noise, chemicals, and mechanical issues to

M3I3C3E3environmental protection levels.

Two and four pair polyurethane (PUR) robotic flex cable and enclosures are

available for flex applications. High voltage, 600V Ethernet cable is available for use in

cable tray with high voltage power cables.

All ethernet media components are designed to perform above TIA 568-B.2 and

ODVA ethernet standards. Rockwell Automation’s Bulletin 1585 ethernet cables

are optimized UTP and STP cables in many applications.

Features and Benefits:

• Supports layer 2 access switching and layer 3 routing for use in

multiple layers of the architecture

• Integrated Device Level Ring (DLR) with three-ring support helps

increase network design flexibility for more complex machines

• All Gigabit (GE) Platform for high performance network support

• Default configurations for industrial applications providing

easy setup and optimized performance

• Support for dual GE switch ring configurations for high

performance network resiliency

• Integrated Network Address Translation (NAT) provides 1:1

IP address mapping helping to reduce commissioning time

Optimized Integration:

• Studio 5000® Add-on Profiles (AOPs) enable premier integration

into the Rockwell Automation Integrated Architecture® system

• Predefined Logix tags for monitoring and port control

• FactoryTalk® View Faceplates help to enable status monitoring

and alarming

• Embedded Cisco technology helps enable integration with the

enterprise network and provides common IT development and

management tool

Rockwell Automation is extending the existing Stratix® portfolio of

industrial network infrastructure products to include a switch with an all

Gigabit (GE) platform. The Allen-Bradley® Stratix 5400 industrial managed

switch supports layer 2 switching and layer 3 routing with GE Power over

Ethernet (PoE) and additional GE fiber ports, which enhance scalability for

use in various applications.

This addition to the portfolio exhibits increased versatility with the

ability to support multiple network configurations. When used as a

layer 2 switch, the Stratix 5400 is an ideal solution for heavy industry

applications where dual ring architectures are required or where high

performance end devices, such as video or telephony, are needed.

When acting as a Layer 3 switch, routing is enabled between segmented

networks for better performance and protection from unwanted network

traffic. Segmenting the network helps to ease network changes, to

simplify network security management by building domains of trust and

to increase efficiency.

By choosing a switch co-developed by Rockwell Automation and Cisco,

your Operations Technology (OT) and Information Technology (IT)

professionals leverage tools and technology that is familiar to them. By

helping to provide optimized integration, you can experience easier

commissioning and faster diagnostics retrieval.
