PLANET Technology introduces the IMS-6325-5 , a high-performance Layer 3 DIN-rail Industrial Modular Ethernet Switch designed to meet the complex networking demands of industrial automation, transportation, and mission-critical applications.
Engineered with flexibility at its core, the IMS-6325-5 features a modular architecture supporting up to five interchangeable modules, including options for 10/100/1000BASE-T copper and Gigabit SFP fiber connections. Two fixed modules further enhance connectivity with four Gigabit copper ports, four 10G SFP+ ports, and a power terminal block supporting 12–48V redundant power. Integrated Digital Input/Output (DI/DO) interfaces add automation control capabilities.
Built for Industrial Environments
With an IP30-rated rugged metal housing and wide operating temperature range (-40 to 75°C), the IMS-6325-5 is built to thrive in harsh environments. Its compact design supports both DIN-rail and wall-mount installations, ensuring flexible deployment in control cabinets, factories, or transportation systems.
Advanced Layer 2 and Layer 3 Features
The switch delivers comprehensive Layer 2 functionality including:
- VLAN tagging (802.1Q), MAC-based VLAN, and Q-in-Q tunneling
- Link aggregation for bandwidth optimization
- Spanning Tree Protocols (STP/RSTP/MSTP) for network loop prevention
- QoS with traffic prioritization and per-port rate limiting
At Layer 3, the IMS-6325-5 supports dynamic IPv4 and IPv6 routing protocols, including OSPFv2/v3 and RIPv2, with up to 4K routing entries and 128 VLAN interfaces—providing robust traffic management for complex industrial networks.
Precision Timing and Automation Integration
Designed for time-sensitive networks, the switch supports IEEE 1588v2 Precision Time Protocol (PTP) in multiple clock roles, ensuring synchronized operations in automation, telecom, and power grid systems. The built-in DI/DO ports allow integration with external sensors and alarms for real-time monitoring and automated event response—ideal for factory floors and smart infrastructures.
Cybersecurity and Fault Monitoring
Security is a top priority. The IMS-6325-5 includes:
- Access Control Lists (ACL) for Layer 2/3/4 filtering
- 802.1X authentication and IP-MAC binding
- Secure protocols including SSHv2, TLSv1.2, and SNMPv3
The integrated Fault Alarm system provides real-time alerts for port or power failures, allowing fast troubleshooting and reducing downtime in mission-critical deployments.
With its robust hardware, modular flexibility, advanced routing, and comprehensive security, the PLANET IMS-6325-5 is a future-ready solution for industrial networks that demand resilience, scalability, and high-speed performance.
