PRODUCT OVERVIEW
The N-TRON® 508TX Series Industrial Ethernet Switch offers outstanding performance and ease of use. It is ideally suited for connecting Ethernet enabled industrial and/or security equipment and can be optionally con gured with advanced Ethernet communication management functions.
Industrial Packaging and Speci cations
The 508TX is designed to operate in industrial environments. It is housed in a rugged DIN-rail-mounted steel enclosure. Optional panel and rack mount kits are also available. The switch comes standard with extended temperature rating, extended shock and vibration specs, redundant power inputs, and a high MTBF (greater than 2M hours).
Ease of Use
The 508TX requires no setup unless the advanced port functions are utilized.
The eight 10/100BaseTX ports are auto sensing and auto con guring. Each port automatically negotiates for maximum speed and performance by default. Bi-color LEDs are provided to display the link status, link speed and activity of each port as well as power on/off status.
Performance
The 508TX supports up to 4,000 MAC addresses and uses advanced IEEE 802.3 Fast Ethernet 10/100BaseTX switching technology to eliminate network collisions and increase network determinism. A high-speed processor and backplane allow full-wire speed capability on all ports simultaneously.

ADVANCED MANAGEMENT FEATURES
The 508TX-A offers several management functions that can be easily con gured using the COM Port (DB 9 connector located on the right side of the switch). IGMP Snooping: Internet Group Management Protocol allows the N-Tron switch to intelligently forward and  lter multicast traf c.
VLAN: Virtual Local Area Network allows switch segmentation in order to create two or more separate local area network domains.
QoS: Quality of Service streamlines network operation by managing packet priority. The primary goal of QoS is to improve the latency of prioritized Ethernet packets required for ring management, real-time and other interactive applications.
Trunking: Trunking (aggregation) enables multiple physical ports to be linked together and function as one uplink to another identically con gured trunkingcapable switch. This feature increases the bandwidth between switches and creates redundancy for applications requiring high levels of fault tolerant operation.
Port Mirroring: Port mirroring allows traf c on one port to be duplicated and sent to a designated mirror port. This function can be used to monitor Ethernet traf c on the designated source port using the assigned mirror port. N-View OPC Switch Monitoring: (With -A or -N Option Only) N-View OPC server software can be used with popular HMI software packages to transmit operational information from N-View-capable switches. This technology enables network traf c monitoring, as well as alarm and trending details. In all, the N-View OPC Server collects 41 different traf c variables per port and  ve system level variables per switch, providing a complete overview of network load, service quality, and packet traf c. Empowered with N-View OPC Server data, users can resolve network problems faster and make more informed decisions about overall system performance.
