The Advantech EKI-2525NI is a rugged, unmanaged 5-port Fast Ethernet switch designed to deliver reliable networking in compact industrial environments. With five 10/100 Mbps RJ45 ports, it supports auto-negotiation and Auto MDI/MDI-X, simplifying deployment and ensuring flexible connections with a wide variety of devices.
Built for PROFINET-based automation systems, the switch integrates a PROFINET PTCP filter to prioritise traffic for time-critical control protocols. This makes it particularly effective in factory automation, process control, and machine-to-machine communication where deterministic networking is vital.
The EKI-2525NI supports a single 12–48 VDC power input with lockable 3-pin terminal block, providing stable operation with built-in reverse polarity and overload protection. Power efficiency is further enhanced with its low consumption design, while a robust IP30-rated metal enclosure ensures durability in dusty or harsh industrial conditions.
Its slim, compact design makes it easy to mount on DIN-rails, even in space-constrained cabinets. The switch also supports a wide operating temperature range of -40°C to +75°C, ensuring dependable performance in extreme environments such as outdoor enclosures, energy substations, and transportation systems.
With CE/FCC Class A compliance, EN 61000-4 industrial EMC protection, and an MTBF rating designed for long lifecycle use, the EKI-2525NI offers a reliable and cost-effective networking solution for industrial automation.

5 Port Slim Unmanaged Industrial Fast Ethernet Switch – PROFINET PTCP Filter
Our customer was looking for ways to improve efficiency and reliability, and reduce operation costs and overheads for their manufacturing facility. The initial step in this transformation was to add additional monitoring and measurements to several areas of their facility to allow the collection of usage data from older machinery for analysis. The machinery to be analysed would be located in many areas of the complex, with some sitting in concrete outbuildings far from the source of the main network.
