We all know that there are commercial grade and industrial grade switches. Commercial grade switches are generally used in homes, small businesses and other places. Industrial-grade switches are often used in industrial environments. So, why can’t commercial grade switches be used in industrial environments?  Why do we have to use industrial ring network switches in industrial sites?

First of all, the data exchange functions of industrial-grade switches and commercial-grade switches are basically the same. However, in terms of design and component selection, the strength and applicability of industrial-grade switch products can better meet the needs of industrial sites.In addition, industrial-grade switches are more flexible than commercial-grade switches in terms of module expansion: There are a variety of optical ports and electrical ports for selection. It can meet the needs of industrial sites in terms of material selection, product strength, applicability, real-time, interoperability, reliability, anti-interference and intrinsic safety. Secondly, industrial-grade switch design generally meets the design requirements: industrial wide temperature design, 4-level electromagnetic compatibility design, and redundant AC and DC power input. In addition, PCB boards are generally treated with “three preventions”.
