SCALANCE XC208 ETHERNET SWITCH – 6GK5208-0BA00-2AC2

Flexible gigabit switches for general-purpose applications SCALANCE XC-200 offer many practical features inside the series, such as redundancy mechanisms and optional full PROFINET or Ethernet/IP diagnostics in a single device or virtual LANs (VLANs).

The SCALANCE XC-208 – 6GK5208-0BA00-2AC2 Gigabit switch is designed for high-bandwidth applications or high-availability control concepts. Siemens SCALANCE X Industrial Ethernet switches are designed specifically for use in demanding industrial environments. Siemens already offers several product lines for specific networking tasks, with varying ranges of functionality while also offering support for popular communication standards such as PROFINET and EtherNet/IP.

With a wide range of series applications thanks to extensive features such as extended temperature range (from -40°C to +70°C) and approvals for railroad applications or high-hazard zones (ATEX Zone 2, IECEx), SCALANCE XC Gigabit industrial and Ethernet switches can be flexibly deployed in a variety of environments such as machine building, automotive industry supporting the manufacturing process or along rail routes, in tunnels or in the oil and gas industry, among others. In addition, optical lines are continuously monitored for wear or contamination with Fiber Monitoring, avoiding unwanted downtime.
