MRD - Industrial Communication Products & Solutions

Product Overview

EtherCAT (Ethernet for Control Automation Technology) is an open Ethernet-based fieldbus. The MTX series EtherCAT DIN-rail slave controllers provide 3 or 6 RJ45 ports for one-in/multiple-out flexible relay to target devices. With 10/100 Mbit/s speed and industrial design, they suit automation and office networks. Flexible topologies include line, tree or star. The IN port is the network input; additional EtherCAT slave modules can connect to OUTx ports.

MTX series EtherCAT DIN-rail slave controllers use single power input 12/24/48VDC and 24VAC, DIN-rail mount, and pass high-level EMI/EMC tests. Widely used in automated assembly, robotics, machine tools, packaging, printing, stamping, semiconductor manufacturing, tunnel control and building control.

FAQ

The cable is connected, but the port will not come UP / the link is down. What should I check?
+

1) Confirm an industrial-grade cable and proper RJ45 crimping. 2) Check speed/duplex settings; set both ends to auto-negotiation. 3) Check whether the port is administratively shut down, in the wrong VLAN, or restricted by port security.
What are the PoE power specifications?
+

Standard PoE and PoE+ are supported, with max per-port power of 15.4 W and 30 W respectively. Total system power budget must be calculated during selection to avoid insufficient supply when too many PDs are connected.
Which ring protocols are supported, and what is the self-healing time?
+

Mainstream industrial ring protocols such as ERPS (G.8032), RSTP/STP, MRP, and PRP are supported. ERPS typical self-healing is ≤50 ms; traditional RSTP is second-level. It is recommended to use one ring protocol consistently across the network.
How should I choose between Layer-2 and Layer-3 industrial switches?
+

Layer-2 switches: basic features such as VLAN, ring networks, and port mirroring; suited to access layers and same-subnet networking with strong cost performance. Layer-3 switches: add static routing, OSPF, DHCP relay, multicast, and other routing features—choose these when cross-subnet communication or core/aggregation networks are required.
Can non-OEM SFP optical modules work normally?
+

The device is compatible with generic IEEE 802.3 SFP modules. Non-OEM modules can usually be recognized, but some brands may have compatibility issues. OEM modules are recommended.
How do I restore factory settings if I forget the device login password?
+

1) Hardware reset: press and hold the RESET button for 5–10 seconds; the device reboots to factory defaults. 2) Software reset: use the vendor NMS to restore factory settings remotely. All custom configurations will be cleared after restore.
What are the power supply requirements for industrial switches?
+

DC models support 18–60 VDC or 9.6–60 VDC; AC models support 100–240 VAC, with dual redundant power inputs. Phoenix terminal wiring; reverse-polarity protection is built in so normal reverse connection will not damage the device.
What are the operating temperature range and protection rating of industrial switches?
+

All-metal aluminum alloy housing. Operating temperature is -40°C to +75°C; premium wide-temperature models reach -40°C to +85°C. Typical enclosure rating is IP40.
