The Brainboxes SW-115 is an unmanaged, 5-port Gigabit Ethernet switch designed for embedded applications requiring robust performance in harsh environments. Its key benefit lies in its industrial temperature range and redundant power inputs, making it suitable for factory floors, kiosks, and vehicle systems. A minor caveat is its lack of advanced management features, focusing instead on plug-and-play simplicity.

The maximum power consumption is 3.6W, which equates to a maximum of 720mA at +5VDC or 120mA at +30VDC.
No, the Brainboxes SW-115 does not support Power over Ethernet (PoE).
No, the SW-115 is an unmanaged switch. It requires no software and operates automatically out-of-the-box with no configurable settings.
It uses a removable screw terminal block for power input, accepting a wide DC voltage range from 5V to 30V.
The switch measures 95 mm in width, 90 mm in depth, and 20 mm in height.
While it has an extended industrial temperature range, its uncased design means it should be protected from direct environmental elements like rain or heavy dust unless integrated into a suitable enclosure.
The Ethernet ports are galvanically isolated, meaning they are magnetically isolated to protect connected devices from electrical surges and ground loops.
Verify the DC power supply voltage is within the 5V to 30V range. Ensure correct polarity is observed on the screw terminal block. Check that the power supply is functioning correctly.
Confirm all Ethernet cables are securely connected to both the switch and the devices. Check the link/activity LEDs on the switch ports. Ensure the connected devices are powered on and configured for network operation.
Check for potential power supply instability. Ensure the operating temperature is within the specified range. Inspect Ethernet cables for damage.
Verify that all connected devices and cables support Gigabit speeds (10/100/1000 Mbps). Ensure there are no faulty cables or devices limiting the speed.
Setup: The SW-115 is designed for plug-and-play operation. Connect your Ethernet devices to the RJ-45 ports using standard Ethernet cables. Power is supplied via the removable screw terminal block. Connect your power source (5V to 30V DC) to the appropriate pins on the terminal block, ensuring correct polarity. The switch will power on automatically.
Compatibility: This is an unmanaged switch, compatible with any device that uses standard Ethernet protocols. It supports 10/100/1000 Mbps speeds and Auto MDI/MDI-X, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of network equipment.
Care: Due to its industrial design, the SW-115 is robust. However, the uncased nature means it should be protected from excessive dust, moisture, or physical impact if the embedded application does not provide this protection. Ensure the power connections are secure. Cleaning can be done with a dry or slightly damp cloth; avoid harsh chemicals or solvents.
