and bandwidth optimization features needed for today’s industrial networks. Reduced Total Cost of Ownership:
• VLANs allow for logical segmentation in a single switch, which reduces total number of switches needed
Improve network resiliency:
• STP helps detect network loops and prevents them before the network stops
• IGMP enables multicast for data traffic control
Increase network security
• Port security allows users to disable ports, or control end device connectivity based on MAC address
• SSH and HTTPS provide secure connectivity
Minimized downtime
• SNMPv3 and Syslog monitor network-attached devices to uncover errors and decrease downtime
• Diagnostic information and alarm relay provide actionable information to resolve issues faster

Stratix 2000 Stratix 2500 When configured, the Stratix 2500 lightly managed switch exceeds the capabilities of an
Unmanaged Switch Lightly Managed Switch unmanaged switch by providing loop detection and prevention capability via STP, monitoring
Ports 4…16 5, 8 and optimizing traffic flow, and providing diagnostic information to help minimize downtime.
It also supports VLANs for logical segmentation, thereby helping reduce total cost of ownership.
Fiber Ports (Maximum) 2 0 As seen in the drawing below, using VLANs separates the traffic within the Cell/Area zones and
keeps unwanted traffic contained and reduces the risk of packet storms that can bring down
