548 Advantech Industrial Automation Group has introduced two new eight-port EN50155 IP67 managed Ethernet switches, the EKI-6558TI and EKI-6559TMI. The company says that EN50155 certification and redundant X-ring allows for trusted connection to Ethernet networks, which is particularly useful for passenger information and video surveillance systems. The devices feature IP67-rated housings and vibration-resistant M12 connectors.

According to Advantech, the EN50155 certification for railway application requirements guarantees reliable performance under stressful conditions, such as voltage spikes, interruption of voltage supply, cool weather, dry heat, bumps, vibration, shock, surges, PF magnetic fields, pulse magnetic fields, and conducted emissions. For passenger information systems, this allows these modules to connect with LCD and LED display boards, while for video surveillance systems, this guarantees these devices can reliably connect with cameras for a variety of applications.
