Introduction

The DeltaV™ Network “Smart” switches are the next generation

in the use of commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) components

in control systems. Called “purpose-built” commercial

components, these switches combine the lower cost of off-the

shelf components with DeltaV specific software and features

to make them more integrated and plug-and-play in the

DeltaV Area Control Network (ACN) and other DeltaV networks

external to the ACN.

DeltaV Smart Switches require no configuration to function in

the DeltaV networks. Accessing the advanced features takes

only minor configuration that is easy to perform using the

DeltaV Network Device Command Center and secured so you

can’t incorrectly configure any switching functions that impact

the performance of the DeltaV system.

This purpose-built switch allows the DeltaV system to provide

an auto port lockdown advanced security feature that is easy for

a control system user to implement: an increasingly important

product feature in today’s hostile environment.

•  Completely managed by DeltaV systems

•  Network alerts and diagnostics automatically

reported to DeltaV workstations

•  Can be installed on the network between the

DeltaV workstations and the Emerson Smart

Firewall (DeltaV 2.5 network)

•  Plug-and-play installation

•  Auto security lockdown

•  A full line of Industrial Rated Fanless Switches

•  Fully supported by Emerson

Accessing the Console.

Secure Shell (SSH) and serial connections are provided using a USB-C cable (except for the RM2040).

The Advanced Configuration menu includes a handful of settings that allow you to customise

the switch for your specific use case while conforming to the requirements of the DeltaV Regional Control Network.

SSH communications provide a secure connection to the switch console.

Encryption in SSH communications provides additional security for switch operation

and maintenance by protecting user credentials and preventing interception.

Full range of switch hardware configurations.

The new generation of DeltaV network switches offers a wide range of hardware solutions.

From 30-port rackmount units to ffxed-port DIN-rail switches,

DeltaV network switches meet a wide range of network requirements.

The extensive line of DeltaV Smart Switches is all you need to implement a complete DeltaV control network.

Emerson provides full support. As an Emerson product,

these DeltaV network switches are fully supported by Emerson when used in a DeltaV network.

Fully supported by Emerson.

As Emerson products,

these DeltaV Network Switches are completely supported

by Emerson when used within the DeltaV network.

You receive full technical support from our Global Service

Center, warranty support, product support, and education —

all from Emerson.

Plug and Play Installation.

The new generation of DeltaV Smart Switches feature a

DeltaV-compatible setup that installs out of the box into a compatible DeltaV network.

They require no user configuration to fully support DeltaV network communications.

NDCC ensures that the configuration of all Smart Switches on the network remains consistent,

so you never have to worry about misconfigurations affecting network performance.

Plug and Play requires that any existing switch or network device be configured for 100/1000 full-duplex communication or auto-negotiation.

Auto-lock prevents unauthorised network connections.

Disabling unused network connections is a security “best practice” that helps you comply with factory security policies.

With the switch’s built-in one-click lockout feature, you simply click a button in the DeltaV Network Appliance Command Centre application to

to automatically lock all unused network ports on your system. Easily protect your network from intrusion.

The port locking algorithm has been enhanced to allow locking of multiple daisy-chained DeltaV nodes,

as well as detection of new nodes within dynamically determined uplink ports.

You can also configure the switch to ignore lockdown commands on specific switch ports if the application requires it.

For example, a port connected to a virtualised host server to allow DeltaV VMs to move between hosts.

Improved performance.

The switching ASICs used in these new products offer new capabilities

such as increased network buffers, the ability to process/forward/filter packets

based on more L2 address information such as IP addresses, UDP or TCP ports, and a non-blocking

architecture.

and non-blocking architecture, in addition to more powerful CPUs for control plane and management

operations.

Removal and Insertion

This unit cannot be removed or inserted with system

power energized.

Power must be de-energized before disconnecting

any carriers or LocalBus Extender cables.

This product must not be unplugged unless either

the system has been de-energized or the area is

known to be safe. No combination of I/O carriers and

LocalBus Extenders must exceed a length of 6.5

meters. Interconnecting cable between enclosures

must be in conduit.

Maintenance and Adjustment

This unit contains no user serviceable parts and

should not be disassembled for any reason.

Calibration is not required.

PMCspan Details

CarrIEr BoarDS

Emerson offers a full line of PowerPC® microprocessor

based VME products which can be custom configured

for specific applications via on-board PMC slots. The

PMCspan expands this capability to further increase

customizing alternatives. It is compatible with Emerson’s

PowerPlus VME series. For further information on

these host CPUs, contact your local sales representative.

In order to support the increased PCI bus loading

associated with additional PMCs, PMCspan uses the

PLX6150. This PCI-to-PCI interface bridge supports a

32-bit primary bus interface and a 32-bit secondary

bus interface. PMCspan mates directly with the host

CPU via the separate PCI expansion connector.

When the maximum of two PMCspan modules are stacked

together, the top board does not require a second PCI

to-PCI interface bridge. Software views this secondary

module as an extension to the primary PMCspan.

The PMCspan board provides VMEbus processor

modules with greater expansion capabilities

• Single-slot 6U VMEbus format

• PLX6150 PCI-to-PCI interface bridge

• Support for two single-wide or one double-wide PCI Mezzanine

• Card (PMC) per PMCspan

• Stacking capability

• Front-panel and/or P2 I/O

• Compliant with PCI local bus specification (revision 2.1)

• Injector/ejector handles per VME64 extensions

• Compatible with Emerson’s PowerPlus VME series

The Emerson Network Power PMCspan board allows users to customize their exact I/O

requirements with Emerson’s VME-based CPU modules designed around the PowerPlus architecture.

When a PMCspan board is coupled with an Emerson processor module, the system

provides up to six PCI Mezzanine Cards (PMCs), more expansion capability than any

other VME-bus processor module. Each PMCspan board supports either two single

wide or one double-wide PMC. By stacking PMCspan boards onto a processor module,

a total of four additional single-wide PMCs can be added to Emerson’s compute

engines – either today or as future application growth demands.

The PMCspan is a standard 6U single-slot VMEbus module that links to its host board

via a PCI expansion connector. It supports both front panel and P2 I/O access for customer supplied

PMCs.
