IS420ESWBH4A GE Module Parts Mark VIe 16-Port Industrial Ethernet / IONet Switch
The GE IS420ESWBH4A is an Industrial Ethernet Switch manufactured by General Electric (GE) for the Mark VIe and Mark VIeS control systems. It is designed to provide reliable Ethernet connectivity between turbine controllers, distributed I/O modules, engineering workstations, and other industrial automation equipment.
The IS420ESWBH4A features 16 copper Ethernet ports and one single-mode fiber-optic uplink port. The fiber interface supports 100BASE-LX10 communication with an LC connector, making it suitable for industrial networks requiring longer-distance communication and improved resistance to electromagnetic interference.
The switch supports redundant DC power inputs, automatic speed negotiation, and DIN-rail mounting. It is commonly deployed in GE turbine control networks and power generation automation systems.
