PROmesh: Industrial Switches for Ethernet / PROFINET

The first industrial switches with integrated diagnostics and monitoring

Powerful network communication meets network diagnostics and monitoring!

PROmesh is the first product series of industrial switches which combines future-oriented requirements for increasing data volume and targeted maintenance. As performance-oriented network infrastructure components, PROmesh switches support both electrical designers and electrical planners in the implementation of advanced plant and hall networks. Furthermore, the integrated diagnosis and monitoring functions allow a central, professional and easy supervision of your industrial networks - without additional measuring devices or manual measuring efforts. This relieves the workload on your maintenance department and provides targeted support.

Large functional range with compact design

Display of network utilisation

The PROmesh determines the network utilisation with millisecond precision and displays this graphically on the web interface.

PROmesh P9 counts number of lost telegrams (discards) on the web interface
Highest network load resilience

Netload classes define the sturdiness of a device in regard of the intensity of the data traffic. The PROmesh P9 is certified for the highest netload class III which is the first time a switch with more than 4 ports fulfils these requirements. Therefore, the new switch is the foundation for a frictionless operation thanks to stable network communication.
Bandwidth management

Data traffic can be limited by adjustable thresholds in order to avoid network load peaks. Data above the maximum value is discarded.

In accordance with Conformance Class B

The PROmesh P9 has full PROFINET IO functionality and thus meets the usual requirements for PROFINET real-time communication in factory and process automation.
The functionality of PROFINET IO devices is divided in clear conformance classes. These summarise different minimum characteristics. For infrastructure components like switches the conformance class B is of special importance as it includes the fundamental PROFINET functionalities and therefore covers the requirements of 99% of all the PROFINET networks installed in the field.
Up to 4 queues per port

The PROFINET switch has a large buffer memory for telegrams, which can not be forwarded at the moment. Up to four queues are available per port.
Additional management functions

In addition to the PROFINET functionalities, you also have other management functions at your disposal such as Port Mirroring, SNTP and packet filter rules for prioritisation of packets.
Leakage current monitoring

Permanent leakage current monitoring with corresponding frequency spectrum according to the PI guidelines

Functions PROmesh

The integration of the Ethernet/PROFINET switch into the automation system (Step7, TIA Portal) with the help of an engineering tool enables you to perform comprehensive network diagnostics. In contrast to standard switches, the PROmesh, thanks to its features, supports a variety of necessary functionalities:

Sending of device diagnostics to the controller (PN-RTA)
Neighbourhood detection (LLDP)
Port-related network statistics (PDEV)
Network diagnostics via IT mechanisms (SNMP)
Higher availability thanks to ring redundancy (MRP)

Diagnosis function

The PROmesh can be adapted individually to your needs and network specifications. If requested you get notified about:

Number of error telegrams
Number of discards
Level of network utilisation
Correct port assignment
Height of leakage current

Network utilisation with millisecond precision

In PROFINET networks, even briefest peaks in the network utilisation can lead to a malfunction in the data communication and thus cause faults. To properly detect these network peaks, the PROmesh series determines the network utilisation with millisecond precision and presents them graphically on the web interface or issues an appropriate alarm if exceeded.

Leakage current monitoring

Leakage current monitoring makes it possible to permanently record and evaluate the sum of all shielding currents of the PROFINET lines. The corresponding spectrum with the respective frequency components is specified for this in addition to the current value. Using this integrated function, the PROmesh series also offers mechanisms for detecting EMC faults or couplings in addition to the complete PROFINET diagnostics.
