New CU2008 and CU2016 Ethernet switches are available in 8- or 16-port versions to provide industrial Ethernet users with robust components, the co. says. The switches feature an optimized housing design and therefore cost 16-percent less than earlier models and offer user-friendly installation in a stainless-steel/aluminum housing via an integrated DIN rail adapter. The CU series of Ethernet switches replaces the previous ES series of switches, but still retains the same form factor with identically arranged RJ 45 sockets and power connections, the co. says.
