MOXA PT-G7728 Introduction
The Moxa PT-G7728 managed Ethernet switch is a next-generation solution for mission-critical applications in industrial environments. The switch supports high-performance network operations for Power Utility, Railway, Road Transformation, and Factory Automation. With its robust design and advanced capabilities, the PT-G7728 ensures communication and efficient traffic control across large-scale industrial networks. As an industrial rackmount switch, it fits into standard 19-inch racks and offers flexibility and reliability where space and stability matter most. This Moxa PT is more than just rugged; it delivers powerful management functionalities within its layer 2 managed switch architecture in complex industrial network infrastructures. For organizations requiring industrial-grade reliability, this industrial Ethernet switch stands out for its modularity and long-term performance. It enables simultaneous data and power transmission, supports Power over Ethernet capabilities, and reduces cabling complexity and installation time. It’s not just an industrial PoE switch; it's a future-proof backbone for your operational technology systems.
Modular Flexibility in a Layer 2 Managed Ethernet Switch
The layer 2 modular managed Ethernet switch design of the Moxa PT-G7728 managed Ethernet switch provides exceptional scalability and adaptability for complex industrial networks. It includes 6 slots for Ethernet modules and 2 slots for power modules, and allows network administrators to customize their configurations with ease. This structure supports up to 28G ports total and enables high-density connectivity in environments with numerous connected devices. This PT-G7728 layer 2 switch supports both 2 x 100/1000BaseSFP and 2 x 10/100/1000BaseT(X) interfaces and allows integration with existing fiber and copper networks. The dual power module slots also offer redundancy to ensure continuous operation even during a power failure. This makes the managed Ethernet switch a highly resilient solution. This industrial layer 2 managed switch supports VLANs, IGMP snooping, port trunking, and comprehensive QoS management to give full control over traffic flow and network efficiency.
Reliable Performance in Harsh Environments
The Moxa PT-G7728 rackmount switch withstands extreme environments. It can perform reliably in both freezing and high-heat industrial zones with an operating temperature range of -40 to 85°C for field deployment. Its IP30-rated metal housing offers solid protection against dust and mechanical impact. Installation is also made simple with its 19-inch rack mounting installation capability for control cabinets and server rooms. The switch handles network communication in places where vibration, electrical noise, and extreme climate variations are everyday challenges. Engineers can deploy this member of the PT-G7728 Series across various industries. The switch’s industrial-grade construction minimizes failure risks and maintains uptime for vital services. It powers connected devices such as IP cameras and sensors without requiring additional electrical wiring or reducing overall installation and maintenance costs.
