SCALANCE X-300 products enable the establishment of switched networks both at the field level and at the control level where high data transfer rates are required in addition to high network availability and extensive diagnostics facilities. The switches are designed in degree of protection IP30 for installation in control cabinets.

The main area of application is found in high-performance plant networks with interfaces to the corporate network.

The X308-2M TS is suitable for use in railway applications due to its specification according to EN 50155.
