The Allen-Bradley® Stratix® 5800 managed industrial Ethernet switch delivers Gigabit performance in a flexible package.

Its fixed and modular design supports a variety of copper, fiber, and PoE expansion modules, and offers Layer 2 switching or Layer 3 routing firmware options to meet a variety of application needs.

When used as a Layer 2 switch, the Stratix 5800 is ideal for high-performance end devices.

When used as a Layer 3 switch, routing can be enabled between segmented networks to improve performance and prevent unwanted network traffic.

Network segmentation helps simplify security management by establishing trust domains and improving efficiency.

The Stratix 5800 includes a robust set of switching, routing, and security features www.ge-drive.com to support a wide range of architectures and uses the Cisco IOS-XE operating system to optimize compatibility with enterprise environments.

Choosing a switch co-developed by Rockwell Automation and Cisco allows your operations technology (OT) and information technology (IT) professionals to leverage the tools and techniques they are familiar with.

By helping to provide optimized integration, you can experience easier commissioning and actionable diagnostics.
