An Ethernet switch with pre-configured Real-Time Ring™

Sixnet® SL-6RS-5SC-D1 Managed 6-port Industrial Ethernet Switch

Item number SL-6RS-5SC-D1

The Sixnet® 6-port Managed Industrial Ethernet Switch features powerful Real-Time-Ring™ technology with high-speed, fault-tolerant network redundancy and prioritized message delivery for critical industrial applications. Pre-configured out of the box to save you time and money. Four 10/100BaseTX RJ-45 ports + two 100BaseFX singlemode 20km fibers ports with SC connectors.

Features and benefits

  • Enhance real-time Ethernet data delivery

    Pre-configured plug-and-play simplicity for redundant star or Ring topology with with high-performance ports to maximize network performance.

  • Engineered for rugged environments

    Compact Lexan IP30 enclosure delivers top performance for industrial settings. Slim case for DIN rail or direct panel mounting.

  • Flexible port configuration

    Four 10/100BaseTX RJ-45 ports and two singlemode 100BaseFX fiber optic ports with SC connectors.

  • High-performing Ethernet ports

    Auto-sensing for speed, flow and MDIX. Ethernet switching technology makes RJ-45 ports full/half duplex capable.

  • Real-Time-Ring™ technology with 30 mS recovery time

    High-performing Ring technology ensures fast, real-time message delivery and network redundancy with Modbus over Ethernet monitoring. Ideal for deterministic systems and PLCs. Recovery time of 30 ms plus 5 ms per hop.

  • User-configurable advanced functionality

    Simple configuration unlocks powerful advanced features, including traffic prioritization (QoS), port mirroring, port settings, and message filtering to prevent broadcast storms.

  • Local and remote status monitoring

    Indicator LEDs for power and port activity, plus a self-test alarm output feature. Use real-time Modbus over Ethernet (UDP) for remote monitoring.

  • Leading certifications for industrial environments

    IEEE 802.3 compliance. Suitable for hazardous environments with UL Class I, Division 2 listing and CE and CSA certifications. Over 1 million hours MTBF and operating temperature of -40 °C to 60 °C.

  • Redundant power inputs and surge protection

    Dual redundant power inputs (10-30 VDC) with surge protection.
