Features
8-Port Unmanaged Gigabit Ethernet Switch Connects Your Devices to a LAN
This space-saving switch with EIP QoS transmits data over a Gigabit Ethernet network. Eight autonegotiating
10/100/1000 Mbps ports send data only to the devices designated to receive it, which
improves the efficiency and potential throughput of the network.
Ethernet/IP Quality of Service (EIP QoS)
The EIP QoS control mechanism is widely used for Ethernet/IP data streams. Based on the application
requirements, this feature helps provide different priorities for different users or data streams. This helps
ensure that the performance of data streams deliver at a certain level. Note: While NGI-U08A does
support QoS, the feature is handled automatically by our product. If you want to control network traffic flow
or prioritize specific ports to your personal preference, you must use a router in your network with a QoS
tool to achieve this level of control.
Ruggedized Metal Housing Built to Last in Harsh Environments
The compact NGI-U08A adds 10/100/1000 Mbps Gigabit Ethernet capacity to your industrial and
commercial applications, such as factory floors, warehouse operations and other environments with space
constraints and wide temperature ranges. The industrial-grade high-strength case withstands vibration,
shock and free fall. It can also operate in extreme temperatures ranging from -40 to 75 degrees Celsius (-
40 to 167 degrees Fahrenheit).
Unmanaged Switch Requires Little to No Configuration
Quickly connect your network devices with little to no configuration. LEDs indicate when the switch is
powered on and which Ethernet ports are showing activity. The NGI-U08A supports MAC address autolearning
and auto-aging for efficient routing, as well as automatic MDI/MDI-X crossover detection for plugand-
play functionality. IEEE 802.3x flow control allows smooth transmission of large files. DIP switch
supports an alarm relay output function in which you can connect an alarm light or buzzer.
Works with the Most Popular Web Browsers
The NGI-U08A is browser-based and works independently from the connected computer's operating
system. Because switch compatibility is based on common hardware standards, rather than system
software dependencies, the NGI-U08A accommodates most platforms. Preferred web browsers include
Google Chrome (on both Windows and macOS) and Microsoft Edge (Windows only).
Pre-Installed DIN Rail Clip Allows for Convenient Mounting
The open-type device may be DIN mounted using the pre-installed rail clip, which mounts firmly to any
standard 35 mm DIN rail. Providing seamless operation in the event of power dips or failures, the switch
features redundant 6-pin 12–48 DC terminal block power inputs to help prevent unnecessary downtime.
When used with two power sources, the switch also supports alarm relay contacts that you can wire to
your existing alarm circuit to notify you instantly when a power disruption occurs. Device power must be
supplied by LPS circuit.
TAA-Compliant for GSA Schedule Purchases
The NGI-U08A is compliant with the Federal Trade Agreements Act (TAA), which makes it eligible for
GSA (General Services Administration) Schedule and other federal procurement contracts.
