Product Description
. . . . . The EIBA5-100T and EIBA5-100T/R switching hubs are designed for the Building Automation environment. The EIBA5-100T is flanged for panel-mounting. The EIBA5100T/R has a clip for mounting to 35 mm DIN-rail. Either switch divides an Ethernet network into five collision domains - ―bridging‖ data links to create larger network diameters than possible with repeating hubs. Each port automatically negotiates its data rate to 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps - controlling data flow with the PAUSE function in full-duplex links or with the backpressure method in half-duplex links. Each device provides preamble regeneration with symmetry and amplitude compensation - retiming signals to eliminate jitter. Digital pre-emphasis compensates for inherent signal strength roll-off. Link integrity is monitored, verifying that a working adapter or hub is on the distant end of a segment. Port assignments are learned by reading Ethernet frames and logging the source addresses to a table. Throughput is improved by restricting traffic to those ports party to a data exchange - while other data is simultaneously exchanged on other ports. Store-and-forward operation is implemented and broadcast, multicast, or unicast transmissions are received by all ports. Each switch has five Auto MDI/MDIX ports for attaching local devices. In addition to one power LED, each port has an LED showing link/activity/rate. Each unit operates from a wide range of low-voltage AC or DC power. Each unit is provided with a writable label and a corresponding set of cable tags for ease of cable identification. . Contemporary Controls. Contemporary Controls. EIBA5-100T/R.
