Ideal for small to medium-sized networks, the 16 port ECO Unmanaged Switch features a slim design and speeds of 1 GB/s per port. Its DIN-rail adaptor for any cabinet simplifies installation and delivers high vibration and shock resistance. Automatic transmission rate detection and identification of the transmit and receive lines provides plug-and-play operation to help save time during commissioning.
Germantown, WI—June 2025— With the introduction of a new 16 port ECO Unmanaged Switch and Single Pair Ethernet (SPE) media converter, WAGO is making connecting and communicating more cost effective.
Ideal for small to medium-sized networks, the 16 port ECO Unmanaged Switch features a slim design and speeds of 1 GB/s per port. Its DIN-rail adaptor for any cabinet simplifies installation and delivers high vibration and shock resistance. Automatic transmission rate detection and identification of the transmit and receive lines provides plug-and-play operation to help save time during commissioning.
Fiber optic communication over long distances may not always be available, so WAGO is introducing their Single Pair Ethernet (SPE) media converter as a viable alternative. This converter enables Ethernet communication with a bandwidth of 10 Mbit/s with shielded twisted pair cabling over a range of 3280 feet. Connect the converter simply and quickly to a levered CAGE CLAMP® connector using new or existing cables. With high heat, shock, and vibration resistance, this converter can be operated with a supply voltage of 12 to 48 VDC and only consuming 3 watts.
