Introduction
The EDS-518E standalone, compact 18-port managed Ethernet switches have 4 combo Gigabit ports with built-in RJ45 or SFP slots for Gigabit
fiber-optic communication. The 14 fast Ethernet ports have a variety of copper and fiber port combinations that give the EDS-518E Series greater
flexibility for designing your network and application. The Ethernet redundancy technologies Turbo Ring, Turbo Chain, RSTP/STP, and MSTP
increase the system reliability and availability of your network backbone. The EDS-518E also supports advanced management and security
features.
In addition, the EDS-518E Series is designed specifically for harsh industrial environments with limited installation space and high protection level
requirements, such as maritime, rail wayside, oil and gas, factory automation, and process automation.

Additional Features and Benefits

• DHCP Option 82 for IP address assignment with different policies • SNMPv1/v2c/v3 for different levels of network management
• Supports EtherNet/IP, PROFINET, and Modbus TCP protocols for • RMON for proactive and efficient network monitoring
device management and monitoring • Fiber Check™ provides a comprehensive fiber Digital Diagnostic
• IGMP snooping and GMRP for filtering multicast traffic Monitoring (DDM) function and event warning on MST/MSC/SSC/SFP
• Port-based VLAN, IEEE 802.1Q VLAN, and GVRP to ease network fiber ports
planning • Bandwidth management to prevent unpredictable network status
• QoS (IEEE 802.1p/1Q and TOS/DiffServ) to increase determinism • Lock port function for blocking unauthorized access based on MAC
• Port Trunking for optimum bandwidth utilization address
• Port mirroring for online debugging • Supports the ABC-02-USB (Automatic Backup Configurator) for
• Automatic warning by exception through email and relay output system configuration backup/restore and firmware upgrade

Note: When connecting a single-mode fiber transceiver, we recommend using an

attenuator to prevent damage caused by excessive optical power.
Note: Compute the “typical distance” of a specific fiber transceiver as follows: Link
budget (dB) > dispersion penalty (dB) + total link loss (dB).
