Unmanaged Switch Edimax IGS-1005 L2 Gigabit Ethernet 5 Ports

6KV lightning surge protection safeguards the industrial Ethernet switch and connected devices from high-voltage transients. The switch is rated to operate in a wide temperature range from -20°C to 70°C (-4°F to 158°F) and offers a guaranteed communication distance of 200 meters (656 ft.), making it suitable for surveillance and parking lot installations. It supports dual power inputs for power redundancy, 802.1p QoS for prioritizing voice and video traffic, and can be mounted on DIN-rail or a wall for flexible deployment in industrial and outdoor environments.

Advantages

The 6KV surge protection reduces the risk of lightning-induced damage to both the switch and connected equipment. Wide operating temperature and robust mechanical design enable reliable performance in harsh conditions. Built-in power redundancy improves network availability, while 802.1p QoS reduces packet loss and latency for critical voice and video applications. Long-range transmission up to 200 m supports remote cameras and sensors without additional extenders, and the DIN-rail or wall-mount options simplify installation.

Key specifications

• Lightning surge protection: 6KV
• Operating temperature: -20°C to 70°C (-4°F to 158°F)
• Guaranteed transmission distance: 200 m (656 ft.)
• Power inputs: dual (power redundancy)
• Quality of Service: 802.1p QoS
• Mounting: DIN-rail and wall mount

How to use

Install the switch on a DIN-rail or mount it to the wall according to site requirements and wiring standards. Connect power to both inputs to enable power redundancy, then connect network devices such as cameras, sensors, or other Ethernet equipment to the ports. Configure 802.1p QoS on the switch or via the network management system to prioritize voice and video traffic. Ensure grounding and surge protection practices are followed for outdoor or exposed installations.

Recommendations

For deployments in outdoor or high-risk lightning areas, combine the built-in 6KV surge protection with proper grounding and external surge arrestors as needed. Use both power inputs to maintain redundancy, and verify operating temperature and enclosure protection to match the installation environment.
