8G Port Full Gigabit Network Management Industrial Ethernet the Industrial Ethernet has eight Gigabit Ethernet ports, making it ideal for upgrading existing networks to gigabit rates or building new full gigabit backbone networks. GIGABIT transmission speeds up bandwidth, enabling high-performance networks to transmit large amounts of video, voice, and data quickly. The ethernet redundant technologies such as Turbo Ring, Turbo Chain, RSTP / STP and MSTP enhance the reliability of the system and the availability of backbone network. The EDS-G508E series is designed for demanding communications applications such as video and process monitoring, ITS, and DCS, all of which benefit from scalable backbone communications networks.
