Frequently asked questions

Unmanaged switches are simple plug-and-play devices that automatically forward data without requiring any configuration. They are ideal for simple network topologies where all traffic has the same priority.

Managed switches offer advanced features such as redundancy protocols and network monitoring. Choose managed switches if you need to control traffic, ensure network reliability or monitor performance in complex industrial environments.

LAPP’s ETHERLINE® ACCESS range includes both types, allowing you to choose the right level of control for your application.

Yes, LAPP offers patch cables and cordsets in various connector types. However, the connections at each end of a cable assembly must be compatible with your hardware (switch ports, device interfaces, etc.). We recommend specifying all connector types during the planning phase to ensure the compatibility of your entire network. Our sales team can help you design a cabling strategy that combines different connector types where necessary, without compromising reliability.
LAPP ETHERLINE® ACCESS switches are designed for industrial environments.Thanks to their various specifications, they are suitable for factory halls, outdoor installations and other demanding environments. Detailed specifications can be found in our product data sheets.
LAPP remote I/O solutions support the most important industrial Ethernet protocols. Compatibility depends on the specific I/O module and your control system. We recommend discussing your protocol requirements with our team during the specification phase so that we can recommend the right solution.
Network reliability depends on three factors:
  1. Redundancy
  2. Cable quality
  3. I/O distribution
Please contact our industrial connectivity experts for a detailed topology assessment. We can review your environment and recommend a layout that balances cost, performance and reliability.
 
Absolutely. LAPP works with system integrators, machine builders and industrial plant operators to develop and implement complete network solutions. Our approach includes:
  1. Site assessment: Understanding your current infrastructure and requirements
  2. Design & specification: Creating a topology with suitable switches, cabling and I/O
  3. Component selection: Recommending the right LAPP products for your environment
  4. Support: Technical assistance with installation and commissioning

Please contact our sales team with an overview of your project, and we will put you in touch with an application engineer.

Data sheets for all LAPP network components can be found on our website. You can also download:
  • Installation guides
  • Certificates of conformity
  • Environmental specifications
Do you need anything specific? Please contact our technical support team – they can provide you with customised documentation for your application.
 
Yes. LAPP manufactures customised patch cords and cordsets to your exact specifications. Whether you require a specific length, connector combination or shielding configuration, we can develop a solution for you.
Both are used in industrial Ethernet applications, but have different strengths:
M12:
  • circular connector 
  • Excellent IP67 sealing for wet/dirty environments
  • More robust in high-vibration applications
  • Frequently used for distributed devices and machine interfaces.
RJ45:
  •  Rectangular modular connection
  • Cost-effective for standard installations
  • Industry standard for IT/network infrastructures
  • Easier on-site termination, if required
Choose M12 for harsh, rugged environments; RJ45 for cleaner, protected environments. LAPP offers both. Please contact us to discuss your specific requirements.
