The eight-port NI MES-3980 is a fully managed switch for networking NI Ethernet-based devices. The MES offers the same industrial specifications as the unmanaged switch as well as additional network management, network monitoring and security, network redundancy, and system alarm functionality. The MES-3980 provides Web-based configuration for easy management of these features and a Windows utility for configuration. MES-3980 features include: • Web-based and Windows configuration and management • Ring recovery time <300 ms at full load with Turbo Ring technology • RSTP/STP (IEEE 802.1D-2004) for Ethernet redundancy • Quality of Service (QoS) IEEE 802.1p/1Q for network determinism • IGMP snooping and GMRP for filtering multicast traffic • Port trunking and LACP for optimum bandwidth limitation • Port-based VLAN and GVRP for network planning • RMON and SNMP v1/v2c/v3 for network monitoring and management • IEEE 802.1X port-based network access control, https/SSL secure Web access, and port lock by MAC address for network security • Configurable e-mail notifications • Relay output for power failure, and port break alarms and digital inputs to integrate control systems and sensors • Automatic backup configurator support Unmanaged Ethernet Switch The eight-port NI UES-3880 is an unmanaged entry-level switch for networking between NI Ethernet-based controllers and devices using standard Ethernet protocols. The UES offers industrial features for networking NI programmable automation controllers (PACs) including -40 to 70 °C operating temperatures; Class I, Div 2, and ATEX certifications for hazardous locations; and redundant dual 24 VDC power inputs. 46.00 mm (1.82 in.)

Panel Mounting Kit Industrial Ethernet Switches – Managed and Unmanaged Network Management The MES-3980 provides port trunking, so you can group two or more ports together for increased bandwidth and a backup communication path. The managed switch implements the Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) based on IEEE 802.3ad to provide link aggregation. It also offers port-based virtual LAN (VLAN) support for creating independent logical networks across switches or on the same switching hardware. The MES-3980 implements the Generic Attribute Registration Protocol (GARP), and, to support VLANs, it uses the GARP VLAN Registration Protocol (GVRP) based on IEEE 802.1Q. The NI managed switch, configured for the VLAN in which it is incorporated, uses the GVRP to spread necessary information and configure other switches across VLANs. MES-3980 supports RSTP and can be incorporated as part of a corporate IT networking infrastructure. When you need to implement a private subnet, Turbo Ring offers a simple method of redundancy that the NI managed switch supports. Figure 2 shows a ring system with the backup path. If any section between two switches is broken, the ring can recover communication within 300 ms with the backup path. Network Monitoring and Security Port mirroring allows one port on a switch to check the traffic sent and received by another port for network monitoring. With remote monitoring (RMON) support, network administrators can obtain network-fault diagnosis, planning, and performance-tuning data from the NI managed switch. Using these features, the MES-3980 provides a wide range of industry-standard options for network monitoring. The MES-3980 uses the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) so network management systems can access data from the switch to describe system configuration. Network management systems use SNMP to monitor devices attached to the network. The most common concern with Ethernet is security. The NI managed switch offers MAC filtering control so you can configure a table of acceptable MAC addresses that the switch uses to filter traffic from unauthorized devices. The NI managed switch also supports Port Lock access by MAC address so that locked ports such as those connected to the external network are not able to learn other MAC addresses and only pass traffic sent from preset MAC addresses. This helps to avoid inappropriate port usage by external devices. Network Redundancy and Industrial Protocol Support The MES-3980 supports the Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) and Rapid STP (RSTP) developed by Cisco and now incorporated in the IEEE 802.1D-2004 standard. In addition to STP and RSTP, the managed switch works with Turbo Ring technology, which provides ring recovery time <20 ms for Ethernet redundancy when an Ethernet network is configured using a ring topology. IT administrators typically use STP and RSTP to implement redundancy in corporate IT networks. The Figure 2. Ring Configuration for Communication Redundancy NI unmanaged and managed Ethernet switches work with PC-based Ethernet standards based on the IEEE 802.3 application and transport layers of the TCP/IP protocols. Both the UES-3880 and MES-3980 are compatible with NI shared variables and industrial protocols that rely on TCP/IP protocols, including Modbus TCP/IP, UDP, and TCP. Additional industrial protocols, including Ethernet/IP and PROFINET, add more requirements to the transport layers of TCP/IP and are supported only by the MES-3980. The NI managed switch offers Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) snooping and supports the GARP Multicast Registration Protocol (GMRP) that allows the managed switch to filter multicast traffic such as traffic generated from Ethernet/IP networks. For applications involving NI Ethernet-based hardware on a network with PROFINET I/O, the MES-3980 provides packet prioritization based on the Quality of Service (QoS) IEEE 802.1p/1Q standard that defines priority levels for individual packets routed on a network. System Notification and Backup Configuration The NI managed switch offers several features for power failure and port break detection. For system management, the MES-3980 delivers configurable e-mail notifications when an exception is detected, providing system managers with real-time alarm messages. For local alarms and notifications, the MES-3980 offers two relay contacts with a BUY ONLINE at ni.com or CALL 800 813 3693 (U.S.) 2 Industrial Ethernet Switches – Managed and Unmanaged current capacity of 1 A at 24 V. These relay outputs can connect directly to local sensors or to digital inputs on NI PACs such as CompactRIO and Compact FieldPoint, so NI LabVIEW software can detect port failure or switch power failure. The switch also provides two digital inputs with 8 A maximum input current and two output states. NI PACs can set these digital inputs to alert the switch about events or alarm notifications. The MES-3980 also supports backup configuration through an automatic RJ45 cable and storage device. The backup configurator stores IP address and switch management settings. Upon switch replacement, simply reboot the switch and the backup configurator updates IP address and system settings. Web-Based Configuration The MES-3980 is shipped with Web-based management software for configuration. Simply log in using the switch IP address and navigate to change settings and customize the switch. You can easily export or import settings to replicate to other switches or to import existing files of settings from an already configured switch. Mechanical Dimensions MES-3980 switch dimensions are shown in Figure 4. Each switch is shipped with a DIN-rail mount bracket and power connectors for redundant power inputs, relay outputs, and two digital lines. 46.00 mm (1.82 in.)
