The SCALANCE XR-300EEC (Enhanced Environmental Conditions) industrial Ethernet switches are partly modular, high-performance, industry-standard switches for the construction of electrical and/or optical line, ring and star topologies at data transfer rates of 10/100/1000 Mbps, designed for installation in 19" control cabinets.

• As many as 24 electrical and/or optical interfaces (10/100/1000 Mbps), of which 16 are integral RJ45 ports;
  up to four electrical and/or optical 2-port media modules can also be inserted in the media module slots of the basic device
• Suitable for use in extremely harsh industrial environments and in low-voltage and high-voltage switchgear thanks to:
  • Extended temperature range (-40 to +70 °C, briefly to +85 °C)
  • Support for special protocols and standards (IEEE 1613 and IEC 61850-3)
  • Wide-range power supplies (60 to 250 V AC/DC)
• High-speed media redundancy through integral redundancy manager both for Gigabit Ethernet and Fast Ethernet
• Seamless integration of automation networks into existing corporate networks thanks to support for a host of IT standards (VLANs, IGMP-Snooping/Querier, STP/RSTP, Link Aggregation, Quality of Service)
• Remote diagnostics by means of PROFINET diagnostics, Web browser, CLI, or SNMP
