The JetNet 5018G, the high density Industrial Managed Ethernet Switch, is specially designed for industrial environments requesting support of high access ports. With fewer unit installation capability, the access ports share wider on-chip backplane, faster local transmission latency, efficient upstream transmission. Besides all the ports can be managed through a single management agent.
The JetNet 5018G is designed as rugged surface in aluminum material, with efficient heat dispersion and wide operating temperature. JetNet 5018G supports Jumbo frame, featuring up to 9,216 bytes packet size for large size file transmission, which is the trend for future industrial application requests.
The embedded software supports 802.1s MSTP, RSTP and Multiple Super Ring technology for ring redundancy protection. Besides, JetNet 5018G support full layer 2 management features, such as the VLAN, Private VLAN, QinQ, IGMP Snooping, LACP for network control, SNMP, LLDP for network management. The secured access is protected by Port Security, 802.1x and flexible Layer 2/4 Access Control List. With JetNet 5018G, you can fulfill the technicians’ needs of having the best solution for the industrial Ethernet infrastructure.
High Bandwidth and Performance
JetNet 5018G equipped with 16 100M Fast
Ethernet plus 2 Gigabit Ethernet ports, totally
requests at least 7.2G backplane for wire-speed and
bi-directional transmission. To meet the requests,
there are 2 types of system architecture - nonblocking
and blocking.
In non-blocking architecture, the switch fabric should
provide higher backplane than are the front ports’
requests. No matter it’s a one to one or fully mesh network, the throughput is always 100% without any
loss.
The blocking architecture is usually implemented
in non-single chipset solution. Limited backplane
may cause traffic jam when there is a heavy loading
transmission among the ports.
The JetNet 5018G embedded 12.8G backplane is
much higher than the system requires. All the traffic
can be switching without blocking and loss. Up to
9K Jumbo frame allows transmitting larger files with
less segments. The high bandwidth and performance
solution guarantees the high capabilities of the
product. |

What is Jumbo Frame?
 |
The typical Ethernet frame ranges from 64 to 1518
bytes. This is sufficient for general usage. However, when users want to transmit large files, the files may be divided into many small size packets. While the transmitting speed becomes slow, 9KBytes Jumbo frame can solve the issue.
Jumbo Frame examples:
Transmitting large files, like the size of the LCD’s bitmap type circuit may reach up to 800MB.
Network servers usually progress backups for lots of large files. |
Jumbo Frame Ring
When running Jumbo Frame within the industrial ring environment, all the switches within the ring must support Jumbo Frame. Once there is any Jumbo Frame unaware switch within the ring, the Jumbo Frame would be dropped.
Korenix provides complete Jumbo Frame supported switches, the switches help to form the Jumbo Frame ring easier. you can choose and install JetNet rackmount switch in control room, and JetNet Din Rail switch as the entry level Jumbo frame switch for formnig a jumbo frame ring.

Gigabit SFP Port
The JetNet 5018G is equipped with 2 Gigabit RJ-45/SFP Combo Ports. The uplink ports’ bandwidth is often the bottleneck, when a high port density switch connects to many ports. The Gigabit Combo interface acts as the uplink and downlink path, allowing you to choose copper or different range fiber connection. The JetNet 5018G SFP socket supports 1000Base-X SFP transceiver. You can choose different types of SFP transceivers, including Multi/Single mode transceivers for your switch, depending on the environmental needs, the distance or the installed fiber cable types. |

Multiple Super Ring (MSRTM) Aggregation Capability
The JetNet 5018G supports the new generation ring technology – MSRTM which includes various new technologies for redundancy applications and structures of different networks. The JetNet 5018G allows to aggregate up to 9 Rapid Super Rings, 8 Fast Ethernet plus one gigabit Ethernet Rings. The Korenix protected pattern eases your network planning.

LLDP and JetView Pro i2NMS for Auto Topology Visualization
The Link Layer Discover Protocol (LLDP) was formally ratified as IEEE 802.1AB-2005. LLDP is the Layer 2 protocol that allows the network device/station to advertise connectivity & management information, the identity & major capabilities, receives and establishes network management information on the local same network.
In industrial environments, most vendors provide their own discovering protocols, window utility or other tools to manage their switches. The LLDP protocol fixes the interoperability among them. With LLDP supported, users can easily browse the network devices and establish the network management information schema about the stations.

|
With SNMP, LLDP and JetView protocols supported, JetNet 5018G Series can be easily discovered, their port and ring status can be displayed by JetView Pro, the Korenix designed Network Management System or other NMS, which supports SNMP and LLDP. The software can help administrators efficiently and effectively manage the industrial network. |
