Korenix releases JetNet 5018G Gigabit Ethernet switch

November 8, 2009 - Korenix unveils JetNet 5018G Din-Rail Gigabit Ethernet Switch for large network applications requiring high-port density and secure connection. Equipped with 16 Fast Ethernet ports and 2 Gigabit SFP combo ports, the switch is capable of aggregating up to 8 fast Ethernet and 1 Gigabit fiber/copper rings while ensuring the network reliability for various distance applications. JetNet 5018G has advanced Layer 2 management features, including LLDP and JetView Pro, QoS, 255 VLAN, IGMP Snooping, GMRP, SNMP, as well as the MSR and RSTP network redundancy technologies to provide extended performance with secure data management in industrial environments. Combining rugged IP-31 enclosure, great heat dissipation and -25~70°C wide operating temperature.Enhanced Performance through Superior DesignIn addition to the 16 Fast Ethernet ports, JetNet 5018G is designed with additional 2 Gigabit RJ45/SFP combo ports, which can be configured for a variety of gigabit cabling types and distances depending on your specific environmental needs. With the non-blocking switching performance, JetNet 5018G provides 12.8G backplane which ensures the traffic switching without data loss and blocking. Furthermore, the managed high density switch supports up to 9K Jumbo frame which allows transmitting larger files with fewer segments. Flexible and Non-stop Transmission with 9 MultiRingsTo ensure the high quality and reliable data transmission in industrial networks, besides the RSTP network redundancy technology, JetNet 5018G also supports Korenix patented MSR redundant ring with less than 5ms link recovery time and “zero” ms restoration time. With its high-port density design featuring MultiRing technology, it fits the flexible network applications and allows aggregating up to 8 100M Fast Ethernet rings and 1 Gigabit Ring into a single switch. As a result, it increases the network bandwidth and expands the system through gigabit fiber and copper rings.Remote Management and Auto-Network Topology JetNet 5018G provides various software features such as QoS, 255 VLAN groups, IGMP Snooping, DHCP, LACP…… for optimizing networks while ensuring high-quality performance, bandwidth aggregation and efficient traffic transmission. Furthermore, the high security of the data management is guaranteed through JetNet 5018G layer 2/4 ACL (Access Control List) as well as Port Security, IP security and other advanced security functionalities. In addition to SNMP, JetNet 5018G also incorporates LLDP function and perfectly works with the Korenix patented JetView Pro industrial network management software (i2NMS) allowing administrators to automatically discover devices and efficiently manage the industrial network performance in mission critical environments.The major features of JetNet 5018G are:
