According to Market Research Future (MRFR), the global industrial Ethernet switch market is projected to reach USD 2 billion, with a CAGR of 14% from 2017 to 2023 (forecast period). The report assesses and explores the impact of the outbreak of COVID-19 on the global industrial Ethernet switch market, including potential opportunities and challenges, drivers, and threats.

The Ethernet switch helps connect Ethernet devices and receive data frames from one device and transfers these frames to the appropriate switch ports connected to the Ethernet. In general, Ethernet switches use the store and forward method to transfer frames in which the switch receives and transfers the entire frame at once. Switches can store frames in a data table and learn the location of devices like PLC, SCADA, and others in the industry. The switches can monitor the network with an LED and provide frame setting capability.

There are two types of industrial Ethernet switches, managed switches, and unmanaged switches. Managed switches can support SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol), which is used to gather and configure information and track network devices. In the case of unmanaged switches, the status of the LED indicates network connectivity. The primary benefit of using a managed switch is that it provides a port mirroring function.

Market Dynamics

Improving data center capacities and increasing deployment of Ethernet-based solutions in industries are primarily driving the market. The growing reliance of organizations on data centers, the need for high-speed data services, and the need for automatic switching devices are accelerating market growth. High costs associated with the installation of managed industrial Ethernet switches and lack of expertise inhibit market development.

Ethernet switches have a range of functions, including port mirroring, redundancy, QoS (Quality of Service), IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol) snooping, and others. With port mirroring, the switch can monitor the frames sent by or received by the port. By feature, a PC running a program called a protocol analyser is capable of receiving or transmitting data from a wide range of ports that can help with problem-solving tools customization. Ethernet switches can withstand high operating temperatures and high vibration environments.
