Область применения




The SCALANCE X-208 PRO Industrial Ethernet switch permits cost-effective configuration of Industrial Ethernet line, star or ring topologies with switching functionality for networks in which high availability or remote diagnostics options are required.

The SCALANCE X208PRO is designed to the IP65/67 degree of protection for installation outside the control cabinet.

Features:

  • The eight PROFINET-compliant M12 ports (d-coded) of the SCALANCE X208PRO are designed with IP65/67 degree of protection for connection to the IE FC M12 Plug PRO 2x2 or the pre-assembled IE M12 connecting cable.
  • The SCALANCE X208PRO can be mounted on a DIN rail or S7-300 rail or direct on the equipment or machine;
    the status information can be read off regardless of the mounting position thanks to the angled LED strip.
  • Power can also be supplied to the SCALANCE X208PRO from outside the control cabinet from the PS791-1PRO power supply module at 230 V AC.

Дизайн



The SCALANCE X-208 PRO Industrial Ethernet switch with a rugged metal housing is optimized for mounting on a standard rail and an S7-300 rail. Direct wall mounting in various positions is also possible. Thanks to the S7-300 housing dimensions, the devices are suitable for integration into an automation solution with S7-300 components.

The SCALANCE X208PRO with IP65/67 degree of protection features:

  • 2 x M12 interfaces for connecting the redundant supply voltage (2 x 24 V DC)
  • A row of LEDs to indicate the status information (power, link status, data exchange, power supply, signaling contact)
  • An M12 interface for connecting the isolated signaling contact

The SCALANCE X-208 PRO switch is available with the following port type:

  • 10/100BaseTX, M12 connection;
    automatic detection of the data rate (10 or 100 Mbit/s), with autosensing and auto-crossover function for connecting IE FC cables via IE FC M12 Plug PRO over distances up to 100 m

Функции


  • Configuration of electrical Industrial Ethernet line, star and ring topologies
  • Fast redundancy in the ring with
    • High Speed Redundancy Protocol (HRP); up to 0.3 seconds for reconfiguration of the ring with 50 switches in the ring
    • PROFINET MRP (Media Redundancy Protocol); up to 0.2 seconds for reconfiguration of the ring with 50 switches in the ring
  • The functioning of the ring is continuously monitored by the integrated redundancy manager. It recognizes failure of a transmission path in the ring or failure of a SCALANCE X-200 and activates the substitute path within 0.3 seconds or 0.2 seconds with MRP
  • Use in ring topologies (100 Mbit/s) together with SCALANCE X-300, SCALANCE X-400 and SCALANCE X-500
  • Uncrossed connecting cables can be used due to Autocrossover function integrated in the ports
  • Easy diagnostics using signaling contact, SNMP and Web browser
  • Easy copper cable diagnostics with Web browser for localizing cable breaks
  • Easy fiber-optic cable port diagnostics by means of Web browser and SNMP for early detection of changes on the fiber-optic cable line or at the fiber-optic cable ports
  • Integration into the diagnostics of a PROFINET I/O controller with expanded diagnostics functions for a consistent diagnostics concept, including network infrastructure
  • Diagnosis of data traffic by means of a parameterizable mirror port with a standard commercial network analyzer
  • Optimized support of PROFINET real-time communication (RT) through prioritizing
  • Fast device replacement in the event of a fault by using the optional C-PLUG swap medium (not included in scope of supply)

Network topology and network configuration

The SCALANCE X208PRO Industrial Ethernet switch is designed for installation outside the control cabinet.

When configuring the network, it is necessary to observe the following boundary conditions:

  • Length of the TP cable between two SCALANCE X switches:
    • Max. 100 m with IE FC cable and IE FC M12 Plug PRO
    • Max. 10 m using patches with TP cord
  • IP Address:
    The IP address is assigned by means of the DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol). If there is no corresponding server in the network, the IP address can be assigned using the supplied software tool PST (Primary Setup Tool) or STEP 7.

Commissioning and diagnostics

PROFINET diagnostic interrupts from the SCALANCE X-208 PRO switch can be displayed with the appropriate SIMATIC Engineering Tools and processed in the controller with an expanded diagnostic function. The engineering outlay for the PLC and HMI have been drastically reduced due to the complete integration in the SIMATIC concept for system error messages.

The SCALANCE X-208 PRO Industrial Ethernet switch can also be integrated into a network management system, e.g. SINEMA Server, through the standardized Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). If faults occur on the device, error messages (SNMP traps) can be sent to a network management system or as e-mail to a specified network administrator.

The integral Web server enables configuration and diagnostics settings to be made using a standard browser (e.g. port configuration). Statistical information can also be read out over the Web server (e.g. port capacity utilization).

The following information is displayed on site by LEDs:

  • Power
  • Port status
  • Data traffic
  • Signaling contact
  • Redundancy manager function

The SCALANCE X-208 PRO Industrial Ethernet switch can also be monitored using the floating signaling contact.

Особенности


  • Ideal solution for configuring Industrial Ethernet line, star and ring topologies
  • Reliable plug-in connection thanks to rugged, industry-standard device connection in conjunction with PROFINET-compliant FastConnect connectors
  • High network availability through design of redundant ring structures (redundancy manager integrated)
  • Integration of the SCALANCE X-200 switches in the existing network management infrastructure through SNMP access point
  • Easy integration in the process diagnosis and system diagnosis with PROFINET
  • Configuration and diagnostics integrated into STEP 7 provide significant benefits during engineering, commissioning, and the operating phase of a plant
  • Module replacement without the need for a programming device, using the C-PLUG swap media for backing up the configuration data
