1 Device description
The PowerMICE devices consist of a switch with media modules that can be
plugged into it. The devices have 4 slots for 10/100 Mbit/s media modules
and 1 slot for 1 Gigabit module. The slot for the Gigabit module supports 2
Gigabit ports. The expansion module provides you with 2 additional slots for
10/100 Mbit/s media modules. Each media module provides you with 2 to 4
ports for connecting network segments.
The PowerMICE devices are designed for the special requirements of
industrial automation. They meet the relevant industry standards, provide
very high operational reliability, even under extreme conditions, and also
provide long-term reliability and flexibility.
The devices work without a fan.
The voltage is supplied redundantly.
The following installation options are available:
simply snapping them onto a DIN rail
You can choose various media to connect terminal devices and other
infrastructure components:
twisted pair cable
multimode F/O
singlemode F/O
The twisted pair ports support:
Autocrossing
Autonegotiation
Autopolarity
The following software variants are available:
MICE MS4128-L2P: Layer 2 Professional
MICE MS4128-L3E: Layer 3 Enhanced

There are convenient options for managing the device. Administer your
devices via:
a Web browser
Telnet
management software (e.g. Industrial HiVision)
a V.24 interface (locally on the device)
The ring redundancy concept allows the network to be reconfigured quickly
after a failure.
