VOLKTEK Unmanaged Basic vs. Premium Switches
In today's industrial environments, reliable and simple networking is essential. From factory automation to smart manufacturing, operations depend on stable, real-time communication between devices. However, many industrial networks still face challenges such as complex setup and lack of optimization for industrial protocols.
To address this, Volktek developed Basic and Premium Unmanaged Switches—designed to deliver both simplicity and performance.
Volktek unmanaged switches are built with true plug-and-play functionality, requiring no configuration. This allows for fast and easy deployment, even for non-IT users. In environments where time and reliability are critical, this simplicity helps reduce downtime and streamline installation.
The Basic Unmanaged Switch is ideal for standard Ethernet communication, providing stable and reliable connectivity for everyday industrial applications.
The Premium Unmanaged Switch goes further by adding intelligent traffic prioritization. With built-in iQoS, it automatically identifies and prioritizes industrial protocols such as PROFINET, EtherNet/IP, and GOOSE, ensuring smooth and real-time data transmission.
Additional features like port priority, LLDP filtering, and VLAN pass-through enhance overall network performance—without requiring any manual setup.
By offering both Basic and Premium options, Volktek gives users the flexibility to choose the right solution based on their needs—without sacrificing ease of use or reliability.
