PROmesh B16 | 16-Port Industrial Managed Switch for PROFINET and EtherNet/IP

The PROmesh B16 is a Layer-2 managed industrial Ethernet switch with 16 RJ45 ports designed for high-performance PROFINET and EtherNet/IP network communication in machine and plant environments. A 13.4 Gbps backplane and 3.7 Mpps throughput support the increasing data volumes of modern automation networks, while Store & Forward technology and Quality of Service prioritization ensure reliable delivery of time-critical traffic. The switch is configurable via an integrated web interface without additional software and supports bus, star, and ring topologies for flexible deployment across a range of installation scenarios.

Compatible with PROmanage® NT network monitoring software and PROscan® Active V2 topology scanning for centralized network visibility and OT security audits.

Key Features
16 x RJ45 Ports at 100 Mbps: Provides comprehensive connectivity for PROFINET and EtherNet/IP devices across machine and panel network segments, with all ports accessible for standard patch cable connections.

13.4 Gbps Backplane / 3.7 Mpps Throughput: High-performance switching capacity suited for dense device networks and applications with growing data traffic demands in automation environments.

PROFINET and EtherNet/IP Certified: PROFINET v2.4 certified to Conformance Class B with GSDML file provided; EtherNet/IP certified with EDS file provided for straightforward integration into existing control system configurations.

Netload Class III: Certified for use in high-demand PROFINET network environments with elevated network load requirements.

MRP / RSTP Redundancy: Supports Media Redundancy Protocol and Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol for ring and redundant network topologies, enabling fast reconfiguration in the event of a link failure.

Quality of Service (QoS): Integrated traffic prioritization ensures time-critical PROFINET and EtherNet/IP data reaches its destination without delay in mixed-traffic network environments.

Integrated Web Interface: Full switch management including VLAN configuration, port settings, redundancy setup, and diagnostics accessible via web browser without installing additional software.

International Approvals: CE, UKCA, UL, and CSA certified for deployment in North American and European industrial installations.

Common Applications
Machine-level PROFINET or EtherNet/IP network infrastructure in manufacturing, packaging, food and beverage, and automotive facilities requiring a reliable 16-port managed switch.

Ring topology deployments where MRP redundancy is required to maintain network availability in the event of a single link or device failure.

Control cabinet network distribution where a high port-count managed switch with QoS and VLAN support simplifies wiring and segment management.

Replacement or upgrade of unmanaged switches in existing installations where PROFINET certification, network management, and redundancy support are required.
