Stratix 8000™ and 8300™ Industrial Ethernet Switches

The Rockwell Automation Stratix 8000/8300 industrial Ethernet switch line with Cisco technology is the first of its kind. This modular managed switch line uses the current Cisco Catalyst switch architecture and feature set, along with powerful configuration tools, helping to provide secure integration with the enterprise network using tools familiar to IT professionals. At the same time, it allows easy setup and diagnostics from within the Rockwell Automation Integration Architecture using tools familiar to manufacturing professionals.

The Stratix 8000 is a Layer 2 switch. The Stratix 8300 embodies the same capabilities as the Stratix 8000, but is a Layer 3 switch that supports routing between Subnets and VLANs.

Benefits:

• Highnetworkperformanceand throughput• Layer3routing• Optimizedenterpriseintegration• Managementanddiagnosticsfromwithin both IT and controls environment• RemovableCompactFlashstores configuration for easy device replacement• Defaultconfigurationsforindustrial automation and EtherNet/IP devices (Global and Smartports)

Kevin Seeley, ITS Manager at Kimberly-Clark Corporation believes “the partnership between Rockwell Automation and Cisco Systems is the first step in helping address needed industry standards and best practices. Their reference architecture model is a foundational building block for delivering security and reliability for the interconnected manufacturing and corporate systems worlds. Companies will be looking to Rockwell Automation and Cisco Systems over the coming months to continue the momentum in developing and leading the market in establishing a common set of standards and best practices for the manufacturing infrastructure environment.”

Rockwell Automation and Cisco Working Together

Manufacturersneedvaluabledataandbusinessagilitytomeetthechanging needs of today’s customers and are turning to their IT and automation engineering professionals to make it happen. The most successful are integrating control and information to streamline processes and gain access to better information to help improve business performance.

To encourage and support this trend to network convergence, Rockwell Automation and Cisco are collaborating to provide the necessary advice, tools, and resources - the most significant being Reference Architectures for manufacturing - in addition to design guidance, educational webcasts and the Stratix 8000/8300 industrial Ethernet switch lines.

Layer 3 Routing

As the evolution of Ethernet on the plant floor continues to grow exponentially with new applications such as motion, safety and I/O,IPtraffichasincreasedsignificantlyandpropersegmentationto the network is becoming more important. VLANs become a best practice to segment networks by function rather than location in the plant. The Stratix 8300 with Layer 3 functionality provides communications between the segmented networks for better performance, better security and protection from broadcast storms on the network. Proper segmentation allows users to:

• Getbeyondperformancebottlenecksofcollapsedarchitectures• Avoidthehighcostofexpandingplantnetworkswhen increasing production by adding new machines• Reducecostsandimproveperformancecomparedto software-based routers• Protectagainstbroadcaststormswhileallowing workstations access to the required resources
