Product versions – port extender
Port extender for flexible expansion to up to 24 ports can be
connected to the basic device.
PE408
•
8 x 10/100/1 000 Mbit/s RJ45 ports with retaining collars for
expanding an XM-400 basic device to a maximum of 24 ports
PE400-8SFP
•
8 x SFP slots for expanding an XM-400 basic device to a
maximum of 24 ports, 100 or 1 000 Mbit/s
PE408PoE
•
8 x 10/100/1 000 Mbit/s RJ45 ports with retaining collars
with PoE according to IEEE 802.3at Type 2 for expanding an
XM-400 basic device to a maximum of 24 ports

Benefits
•
Modular system offers cost savings. The modular system
allows the setup of electrical and optical Industrial Ethernet
networks and the network topology and port type to easily be
adapted to the plant structure and expanded at any time
•
Integrated industrial network for data, speech, and video
•
High performance due to up to 24 Gigabit ports
•
Operational reliability in industrial environments, e.g. due to
robust enclosure, redundancy, temperature range from
- 40 °C to +70 °C
•
Increased plant availability thanks to:
- Redundant power supply
- Redundant network structures based on fast media
redundancy
- Standby redundancy between ring topologies
- Redundant switching through standard mechanisms STP,
RSTP, MSTP
- Redundant router operation through VRRP
- Media modules can be replaced or expanded during
operation
-
Easy device replacement due to plug-in KEY-PLUG/C-PLUG
swap media
•
Virtual LANs (VLAN) allow simple subdivision of large
networks into smaller subnets with their own address space.
Reasons for subdivision into subnets include separation of the
Ethernet networks to reduce the broadcast load, separation of
sensitive areas from the main network, and subdivision of the
network into logical working groups. Communication between
the VLANs can, however, be achieved with Layer-3-Switching
(IP routing)
•
Integrated and optional security functions offer protection
against unauthorized network access and configuration
•
Simple monitoring and diagnosis by means of signaling
contact, SNMP traps, PROFINET diagnosis, and email
function
•
Reduced engineering expenditure for PLC/HMI due to
integration into the SIMATIC system fault message concept
•
Integrated configuration and diagnostics in the TIA Portal
•
Fast mobile diagnostics with smartphone/tablet thanks to
WLAN and NFC (Near Field Communication): Fast access to
the web-based management of the SCALANCE XM-400 via
mobile websites. The function can be started using existing
WLAN and NFC.
