PRODUCT INFORMATION
Product Overview
The General Electric IS420ESWAH3A is an Industrial Ethernet Switch designed for Mark VI / Mark VIe control systems. This module supports real-time industrial control solutions across critical infrastructure installations. It provides eight 10/100Base-TX copper RJ45 ports on the front panel. The unit operates without fiber ports, focusing exclusively on copper media connections.
The ESWA module incorporates internal packet buffering for continuous multicast and broadcast data streams. It buffers one incoming data stream at a time during high network traffic events. Integrated front LEDs indicate operating power status during active module run time. The switch complies with IEEE 802.3, 802.3u, and 802.3x networking standards.
