About the Switches
The Stratix 8000 Ethernet Managed Switches provide a rugged, easy-to-use,
secure switching infrastructure for harsh environments. You can connect these
switches to network devices such as servers, routers, and other switches. In
industrial environments you can connect any Ethernet-enabled industrial
communication devices including programmable logic controllers (PLCs),
human-machine interfaces (HMIs), drives, sensors, and I/O.
You can mount the switches on a DIN rail in an industrial enclosure, on a wall,
or panel.
The switch front panel contains the ports, the status indicators, and the power
and relay connectors. The following figures show the 1783-MS10T switch and
expansion module front panels.
