The Advantech EKI-2720G Series provides powerful unmanaged Gigabit Ethernet switching for industrial networks requiring high-density connections. Offering 16x 10/100/1000 Mbps RJ45 ports and 4x SFP slots for fibre expansion, this series is designed for traffic control, railway platforms, and other mission-critical environments that demand robust, high-speed communication.
The EKI-2720G Series supports flexible fibre deployment through its SFP slots, extending transmission distance up to 110 km depending on the chosen modules. With redundant 12–48 VDC power inputs and a fault relay output, the switches ensure reliable operation and fast fault notification, reducing downtime in critical systems.
Engineered with an IP30-rated metal enclosure and compact 74 x 152 x 105 mm footprint, these switches are DIN-rail mountable for easy cabinet integration. LEDs provide at-a-glance monitoring of system, port, and alarm status. The units have passed rigorous EMC and EMI tests, and comply with NEMA TS2 and EN50121-4, making them suitable for roadside traffic control cabinets and railway trackside installations.
To withstand industrial demands, the EKI-2720G Series comes in two models: a standard version operating from -10°C to +60°C, and a wide-temperature model rated for -40°C to +75°C. Both undergo strict burn-in testing to guarantee long-term reliability. With a high MTBF and international safety approvals, the EKI-2720G Series is a trusted unmanaged Gigabit solution for large-scale and critical network deployments.

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.
