Thursday, 24 August, 2017 | Supplied by: Belden Australia Pty Ltd


With a combination of managed and unmanaged switches, Hirschmann’s GECKO switches are suitable for use in smaller networks or on the edge of larger installations. They can also be used for carrying video signals or transmitting control data.

For industrial manufacturers looking to enter the world of managed switches, the GECKO switches offer simple network management and enhanced network availability. Network parameters can be centrally configured using a web interface, while redundancy and diagnostic functions ensure high network availability.

Featuring four or five Fast Ethernet ports (10/100 Mbps) and the ability to mount on a DIN rail, the compact dimensions (25 x 114 x 79 mm) of the GECKO switches require little space and inactive ports can be disabled to protect against possible misuse.

The switches can be managed through SNMP or via HiDiscovery and Industrial HiVision from Hirschmann. A web interface is also available. For monitoring purposes, the switches provide diagnostic and documentation options, such as a system log, remote monitoring (RMON) and Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP). Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) and quality of service (QoS) functions are also supported.

Additional features include an IP30 protection rating, a wide operating temperature range, high resistance to shock and vibration, a 24 VDC power supply and power consumption of less than 3 W.
