IKS-G6524A/G6824A Series
Introduction
Process automation and transportation automation applications 
combine data, voice, and video, and consequently require high 
performance and high reliability. The IKS-G6524A/G6824A series full 
Gigabit backbone switches are equipped with 24 Gigabit Ethernet 
ports, and support Layer 3 routing functionality to facilitate the 
deployment of applications across networks, making them ideal for 
large scale industrial networks. The IKS-G6524A/G6824A’s full Gigabit 
24G-port Layer 2 / Layer 3 full Gigabit managed Ethernet switches
capability increases bandwidth to provide high performance and the 
ability to quickly transfer large amounts of video, voice, and data 
across a network. The switches support the Turbo Ring, Turbo Chain, 
and RSTP/STP redundancy protocols, and are fanless and come with 
an isolated redundant power supply to increase system reliability and 
the availability of your network backbone.
•  Layer 3 switching functionality to move data and information 
across networks (IKS-G6824A series)
•  Command line interface (CLI) for quickly configuring major 
managed functions
•  Supports advanced VLAN capability with Q-in-Q tagging
•  Software based IEEE 1588 PTPv2 (Precision Time Protocol) for 
precise time synchronization of networks
•  DHCP Option 82 for IP address assignment with different policies
•  Support EtherNet/IP and Modbus/TCP protocols for device 
management and monitoring
•  Compatible with EtherNet/IP and PROFINET protocols for 
transparent data transmission
•  Redundant Gigabit Turbo Ring and Turbo Chain (recovery time < 
50 ms @ 250 switches), RSTP/STP, and MSTP for network  
redundancy
•  IGMP snooping and GMRP for filtering multicast traffic
Specifications
•  IEEE 802.1Q VLAN and GVRP protocol to ease network planning
•  QoS (IEEE 802.1p/1Q and TOS/DiffServ) to increase determinism
•  Port Trunking for optimum bandwidth utilization
•  TACACS+, SNMPv3, IEEE 802.1X, HTTPS, and SSH to enhance 
network security
•  Access control lists (ACL) increase the flexibility and security of 
network management (IKS-G6824A series)
•  SNMPv1/v2c/v3 for different levels of network management
•  RMON for efficient network monitoring and proactive capability
•  Bandwidth management prevents unpredictable network status
•  Lock port function for blocking unauthorized access based on MAC 
address
•  Port mirroring for online debugging
•  Automatic warning by exception through e-mail, relay output
•  Digital inputs for integrating sensors and alarms with IP networks
•  Redundant, dual AC power inputs
