Rockwell Automation has expanded its portfolio of industrial Ethernet switches with the new Allen-Bradley Stratix 5410 industrial distribution switch. With four 10-gigabit Ethernet ports, the Stratix 5410 switch provides a higher-performance connection to the rest of a facility's network architecture. The switch can be used as a Layer 2 switch or a Layer 3 routing switch, which allows engineers to use it in various applications.
With a 19-inch rack-mount design, the Stratix 5410 switch gives end users a centralized point of network distribution and increased port density. It is suited for heavy industry applications where resiliency is often required, and has a rugged-designed exterior to help withstand harsh environmental conditions.
With embedded Cisco technology and Premier Integration into the Rockwell Automation Integrated Architecture system, the Stratix 5410 switch provides familiar solutions for information technology (IT) and operations technology (OT) professionals. This helps to ease network configuration, management and support. Using the Rockwell Software Studio 5000 design environment, engineers can leverage FactoryTalk View faceplates from Rockwell Automation and add-on profiles to help simplify switch configuration and monitoring. In addition, the embedded Cisco technology helps optimize integration with the enterprise network.
Security features include programmable port access, as well as configurable port security. Capabilities, such, as encrypted administrative traffic, 802.1x authentication, access control lists (ACL), and TACACS+ and RADIUS, support plant-wide security as part of a defense-in-depth security approach.
