The EDS-405A/408A-EIP are 5 and 8-port managed Ethernet switches with EtherNet/IP enabled. With Ethernet/IP embedded, the EIP switches are visible with custom faceplate in FactoryTalk® View industrial management software, for greater operational and network visibility in factory automation HMIs. The EDS-405A/408A-EIP also supports a variety of useful management functions, such as IGMP snooping, IEEE 802.1Q VLAN, QoS, port mirroring, SNMP, bandwidth management and warning by email or relay.
