Figure 1.1 – Click 340/341/342 Managed Switch
Features and fields for application of the managed switch include:
˽ A device design that does not use a fan, the redundant power supply, and conformance
with all relevant industrial standards in terms of EMC, climate, mechanical load, etc.
ensure the highest possible level of availability.
˽ The Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) ensures the safe operation of the entire net-
work regardless of topology, even in the event of a cable interrupt.
˽ Two LEDs per port ensure that you always have sufficient local information. A Web
server and an SNMP agent are provided for diagnostics, maintenance, and configura-
tion via the network. A terminal access point can be used for local operation.
˽ Increased network performance by filtering data traffic: Local data traffic remains lo-
cal. The data volume in the network segments is reduced.
˽ Easy network expansion and network configuration.
˽ Coupling segments with different transmission speeds. Automatic detection of 10
MBps or 100 MBps data transmission rate for RJ-45 ports.
˽ Increased availability through the use of redundant transmission paths in various to-
pologies and meshed structures as a result of RSTP.
˽ The switches can be configured using Web-based management, SNMP or locally via an
RS-232 (V.24) interface.
Physical Features
The Click 340/341/342 modules each have several communication ports, as well as diagnos-
tic features (see Figure 1.2).
