Features

8-Port Unmanaged Gigabit Ethernet Switch Connects Your Devices to a LAN
This space-saving switch transmits data over a Gigabit Ethernet network. Eight auto-negotiating 10/100/1000 Mbps ports send data only to the devices designated to receive it, which improves the efficiency and potential throughput of the network. The NGI-U08C2 also features two GbE SFP slots for uplinking data to other switches via optical fiber or copper.

Supports Intelligent QoS for PROFINET, EtherNet/IP and IEC 61850 GOOSE Traffic
Eaton’s iQoS (Intelligent Quality of Service) is designed to support PROFINET, Ethernet/IP (EIP) and GOOSE traffic by ensuring reliable and consistent data delivery in industrial networks. Based on the characteristics of aforementioned industrial protocol communication, iQoS automatically recognizes and prioritizes traffic with industrial protocol mentioned to maintain stable network performance under normal operating conditions. This built-in mechanism helps ensure deterministic behavior for critical industrial data streams without requiring user configuration, making it well suited for plug-and-play deployments in OT environments. Note: While the NGI-U08C2 supports automatic QoS handling through iQoS, it does not provide manual traffic classification or port-level priority configuration. For applications requiring customized traffic policies, a managed network switch with advanced QoS functionality should be deployed.

Ruggedized Metal Housing Built to Last in Harsh Environments
The compact NGI-U08C2 adds 10/100/1000 Mbps Gigabit Ethernet capacity to your industrial and commercial applications, such as factory floors, warehouse operations and other environments with space constraints and wide temperature ranges. The industrial-grade high-strength case withstands vibration, shock and free fall. It can also operate in extreme temperatures ranging from -40 to 75 degrees Celsius (-40 to 167 degrees Fahrenheit).

Unmanaged Switch Requires Little to No Configuration
Quickly connect your network devices with little to no configuration. LEDs indicate when the switch is powered on and which Ethernet ports are showing activity. The NGI-U08C2 supports MAC address auto-learning and auto-aging for efficient routing, as well as automatic MDI/MDI-X crossover detection for plug-and-play functionality. IEEE 802.3x flow control allows smooth transmission of large files. DIP switch supports an alarm relay output function in which you can connect an alarm light or buzzer.

Pre-Installed DIN Rail Clip Allows for Convenient Installation
The device may be DIN mounted using the pre-installed rail clip, which mounts firmly to any standard 35 mm DIN rail. Providing seamless operation in the event of power dips or failures, the switch features redundant 6-pin 24–48VDC terminal block power inputs to help prevent unnecessary downtime. When used with two power sources, the switch also supports alarm relay contacts that you can wire to your existing alarm circuit to notify you instantly when a power disruption occurs. Device power must be supplied by LPS (Limited Power Source) circuit.  

TAA-Compliant for GSA Schedule Purchases
The NGI-U08C2 is compliant with the Federal Trade Agreements Act (TAA), which makes it eligible for GSA (General Services Administration) Schedule and other federal procurement contracts.
