The Advantech EKI-2528I-M12 is an unmanaged industrial Ethernet switch designed for reliable communication in the harshest operating environments. With 8x 10/100 Mbps ports equipped with M12 D-coded connectors, the switch ensures secure, vibration-resistant connections, making it ideally suited for applications in rolling stock, transportation, and heavy industry.

The rugged IP67-rated metal housing offers complete protection against dust and powerful water jets, enabling deployment in outdoor or washdown environments. The M12 connectors further enhance reliability by preventing accidental disconnections, even under continuous vibration and shock.

Supporting 10/100 Mbps auto-negotiation and Auto MDI/MDI-X, the EKI-2528I-M12 delivers plug-and-play operation for fast setup. Its broadcast storm protection and store-and-forward switching mechanism ensure stable network performance, even in demanding traffic conditions.

Redundant 12–48 VDC power inputs safeguard against supply failures, while built-in reverse polarity and overload current protection strengthen system resilience. Designed to comply with IEC 61131-2 specifications, the switch meets strict industrial standards for EMC immunity, ensuring consistent operation alongside PLCs, controllers, and industrial sensors.

With a wide operating temperature range from -40°C to +75°C, the EKI-2528I-M12 guarantees performance in extreme climates. DIN-rail and wall-mount options provide flexible installation, while low power consumption ensures efficiency.
