PLANET IGS-4215-16T2S Managed switch

The PLANET IGS-4215-16T2S is a DIN-rail mountable managed L2/L4 Gigabit Ethernet switch designed for industrial and harsh environments. It provides 16 10/100/1000BASE-T ports and 2 SFP fiber slots for uplink, supports IPv4/IPv6 dual-stack management, and operates in a wide temperature range (-40 to 75 °C) inside an IP30 metal housing. The switch offers a switching capacity of 36 Gbit/s and a MAC address table of 8000 entries, and accepts DC input from 12 to 48 V for flexible deployment.

Advantages

The IGS-4215-16T2S combines environmental hardening, robust L2/L4 feature set and enhanced security mechanisms in a compact DIN-rail form factor. It includes wide temperature operation and surge/ESD protection for reliable performance in industrial sites, QoS and traffic controls for voice/video/data services, and dual-stack IPv4/IPv6 support to simplify migration. Two SFP uplink slots and SFP DDM support allow long-distance fiber extension and real-time transceiver monitoring.

Suitable for

• Industrial automation and control cabinets
• Curb-side traffic control and outdoor cabinets without air conditioning
• Enterprise edge and branch networks requiring robust PoE and security
• Data center uplinks where fiber extension up to tens of kilometers is needed

How to use

Mount the switch on a DIN-rail and connect a suitable DC power source (12–48 V). Attach copper devices to the RJ-45 ports and use SFP transceivers in the SFP slots for fiber uplinks as required. Configure network settings through the switch management interface (IPv4/IPv6) and set up VLANs, link aggregation, QoS policies, ACLs and security features such as 802.1X, DHCP snooping and Dynamic ARP Inspection according to your network design. Monitor SFP parameters using the DDM function for fiber link diagnostics.

Recommendations

Install the switch in a ventilated, dust-reduced enclosure when possible, and use surge-protected power and properly grounded cabling. Choose SFP modules compatible with the intended fiber type (multi-mode or single-mode) to meet required distance, and enable ACLs, DHCP snooping and 802.1X to protect the network edge in industrial deployments.
