TRENDnet TI-E50 V2 5-Port Industrial Fast Ethernet DIN-Rail Switch, 10/100Mbps, IP50 Aluminum Housing, Redundant 12–56V DC Power Inputs

The TRENDnet TI-E50 V2 5-Port Industrial Fast Ethernet DIN-Rail Switch provides dependable Ethernet connectivity for industrial networks and automation environments. Built for installations where temperature variation, vibration and electrical conditions can challenge standard networking equipment, this unmanaged switch combines a rugged IP50-rated aluminum enclosure with a wide operating temperature range.

Five Fast Ethernet Ports

The TI-E50 V2 features five 10/100Mbps RJ-45 Ethernet ports for connecting industrial controllers, computers, monitoring equipment and other Ethernet-enabled devices. Its 1Gbps switching capacity supports network traffic across all five ports.

Redundant Industrial Power

Two DC power inputs support redundant power connections across a 12–56V DC input range. This arrangement helps reduce the risk of network downtime if one power source is interrupted. Overload current protection is also included. A compatible power supply, such as the TRENDnet TI-M6024, is sold separately.

Rugged IP50 Aluminum Enclosure

The IP50-rated aluminum housing is designed for industrial installations requiring protection against dust ingress. The enclosure is suitable for environments where equipment may be exposed to vibration and shock, subject to the manufacturer's installation and operating conditions.

Reliable Operation in Extreme Temperatures

Designed for demanding industrial conditions, the TI-E50 V2 operates across a temperature range of -40°C to 75°C (-40°F to 167°F). Its fanless design provides silent operation without cooling-fan maintenance.

Flexible Industrial Installation

The switch supports DIN-rail and wall mounting, making it suitable for control cabinets, industrial panels and other space-conscious installations. A grounding point and removable terminal block are provided for installation.

6. Frequently Asked Questions

Q1. How many Ethernet ports does the TRENDnet TI-E50 V2 have?

It has five 10/100Mbps Fast Ethernet RJ-45 ports for connecting compatible network devices.

Q2. Is the TI-E50 a Gigabit Ethernet switch?

No. It is a Fast Ethernet switch with 10/100Mbps ports. Its 1Gbps figure refers to the switching capacity, not the speed of an individual port.

Q3. Does the TI-E50 support redundant power?

Yes. It features dual 12–56V DC power inputs to support redundant power connections.

Q4. Is a power supply included?

No. The power supply is sold separately. TRENDnet recommends its TI-M6024 industrial power supply.

Q5. Can the TI-E50 operate in extreme temperatures?

Yes. Its specified operating temperature range is -40°C to 75°C (-40°F to 167°F).

Q6. Can this switch be mounted on a DIN rail?

Yes. It supports DIN-rail and wall mounting, and the mounting kit is included.

Q7. Is the TI-E50 a managed switch?

No. It is an unmanaged industrial switch designed for simple plug-and-play Ethernet connectivity.

Q8. What does the IP50 rating mean?

IP50 indicates protection against dust ingress at the specified test level, but it does not indicate water resistance. The switch should not be installed where it is exposed to water or moisture without suitable additional protection.
