Siemens 308-2FL00-2AA3 Industrial Ethernet Switch

Siemens SCALANCE X308-2, model 6GK5308-2FL00-2AA3, is a managed-plus Industrial Ethernet switch designed for demanding automation environments. It provides two 1000 Mbps multimode fiber (SC) ports for high-speed uplinks, one 1000 Mbps copper RJ45 port, and seven 10/100 Mbps RJ45 ports for device connectivity, enabling flexible topologies from line trunks to edge networks. The device functions as a PROFINET IO device with integrated network management and an internal redundancy manager to boost availability in critical applications. LED diagnostics offer quick status visibility, and a fault signaling contact with a Select/Set pushbutton supports safe and straightforward fault signaling and configuration changes in control cabinets. Built for robust industrial use, the X308-2 supports essential office-style networking features such as VLAN, RSTP, and IGMP, helping to create scalable, loop-free, and manageable networks while maintaining precise communication timing across the plant floor. This switch is ideal for applications requiring reliable layer-2 switching, resilient topology options, and seamless integration with PROFINET-enabled automation systems.
