The managed Industrial Ethernet switches of the SCALANCE XP-200 product line with 8 or 16 Ethernet ports are optimally suited for setting up cabinet-free automation concepts of Industrial Ethernet networks with transmission rates of 10/100/1000 Mbps in a line, star or ring topology.

• Integral redundancy manager for configuration of high availability networks in ring topologies
• Electric device or network connection
• Rugged metal housing with mounting options on SIMATIC ET 200pro rack, ITEM rail mounting or direct wall mounting
• Rugged device connections with industrial-strength M12 plug connectors, M12 D-coded for FastEthernet (10/100 Mbps interfaces), M12 X-coded for Gigabit (1000 Mbps interfaces), PROFINET and EtherNet/IP-compliant M12 connection technology (M12 D-coded, M12 X-coded)
• Redundant power supply (M12, A-coded)
• Console port (M12, D-coded)
• Diagnostics on the device by means of prominent LED display with integrated SELECT/SET button (power, link status, data communication, display mode)
• Error signaling contact with easy adjustment using SELECT/SET button. Configuration storage using C-PLUG swap medium
• Grounding screw for external ground connection

New, additional software functions compared to SCALANCE X208PRO:

• Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) port-based, protocol-based and IP-based
• IGMP snooping und query (use in EtherNet/IP networks)
• Access Control List (ACL) MAC-based and IP-based
• Link aggregation
• Standby observer for HRP
• IEEE 802.1X (e.g. RADIUS)
• Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol / Multi Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP / MSTP)
• Remote Network Monitoring (RMON)
• Configuration in the TIA Portal as well as in Web Based Management (WBM)

Product versions

For use in PROFINET and EtherNet/IP automation systems, device variants are offered that have a corresponding default setting for the respective automation system. However, the use of a device with a PROFINET or EtherNet/IP default setting is possible in the other network at any time by changing the configuration.
