ETHERLINE® ACCESS, the managed & unmanaged switches


Robust switches for demanding industrial networks


The Ethernet technology-based networks are active network components which play an important role in Industrial Ethernet Systems, required by the smart factories of the future.
Understanding the increasing demand of Ethernet Technology, Lapp, one of the leading Cable Manufacturers in India launched its new line of switches for Ethernet networks, also known as the best Ethernet solutions in India under the name ETHERLINE® ACCESS. One important value is the reconfiguration time, which is the period until communication is restored following an interruption. In the case of the new switches from Lapp, this period is only 20 milliseconds with 250 active components in the network. Besides this, the switches are fully equipped with cutting-edge diagnostic and redundancy features.
Switches are a new line of business for Lapp, Cable Manufacturers in India but this represents an ideal fit for the market leader in integrated cable and connection systems.Only the combination of an industry-caliber switch and industrial brand-name cables such as ETHERLINE® from Lapp guarantees maximum performance in terms of transmission quality and reliability. In addition, the customer does not need to purchase individual components from different suppliers. On the contrary, they can procure a complete communication solution from a single source for the highest demands in industrial applications.
The Lapp switches are available in four variants: “managed”, i.e. with the option of configuration and five or eight RJ45 ports, designated ETHERLINE® ACCESS M05T or M08T respectively. By contrast, the ETHERLINE® ACCESS U05T and U08T switches are “unmanaged”. All four are fan- and maintenance-free and have two redundant connections to ensure a reliable power supply.


General Features
·         Redundant power inputs – high availability
·         Robust metal housing and DIN rail mounting
·         IP 30
·         Fanless – maintenance free

ETHERLINE® ACCESS being the best Ethernet solutions in India can be applied at:

·         Industry and building networks
·         Stage engineering and event technology

Basics of Cables and Connectors

If we check the history of electric cables, the real demand for wires and Cables to conduct electric power began in 1871, with the invention of the first dependable dynamo. The telegraph and telephone swelled demand for efficient methods of transmitting electric current and signals over long distances. The insulation back in the days was paper coated. Just imagine Paper-coated pitch wrapped each individual wire, insulating it from the others. The whole batch was then wrapped in paper. Some even suggested laying these batches in tubes coated in resin and placing them underground to keep curious young boys away from them. In the case of cables, factors like resistance, capacitance and impedance all play a role. There's also a great many more electrical sources , magnetic sources and broadcast radio frequencies today than there were in the days of paper and pitch insulation. All of these factors can affect a cable's transmission. As a result, shielding is another impo...

Common Fiber Optic Cables Problems

As Clint Eastwood quoted, “ Aging can be fun if you lay back and enjoy it .” However this quote does not apply to the fiber optic cables or any cable in general. Some fiber optic networks have now been in use for more than 20 years, a tribute to the inherent capabilities of optical fiber. In that same time, copper cabling for premises networks has been through two generations of coax and at least four generations of unshielded twisted pair cabling. Why do the Old Fiber Optic Cables still Works so Well? ·          One reason is the extreme care that went into its design. Telephone cable engineers already knew how to make cable that would survive for long times buried underground or suspended from poles. Adapting that technology to glass fibers , while adding plastics to protect the fiber from the environment by hermetically sealing the glass, and using the then new technology of aramid fibers to prevent stress on the glass i...

Life Expectancy of your Control Cable India and what should you expect?

With the talk of life expectancy being the need of the hour, I want to start this blog with a quote from the American author and computer scientist, Ray Kurzweil: “ Life expectancy is a statistical phenomenon. You could still be hit by the proverbial bus tomorrow .” One of the important question to ponder, when constructing new builds or considering refurbishment is: What is the life expectancy of the control cables in use? To be frank, there are no minimum requirements for an expected lifetime in cable standards and specifications. And the majority of high-quality cable manufacturers always deliver the probably expected lifespan. Under ideal circumstances which means considerably reduced heating and lower loadings, we can find the examples of cables that have remained in safe use for over 50 years. The parameters influencing the life expectancy of the control cable India ·           The changes in the polymer...
