DnA solutions reduce costs and simplify hardware setups

Overview

Switches can now do so much more than just pass packets! EtherWAN’s DnA switches incorporate the ability to receive signals through digital input, which can trigger events through the relay output port. DnA stands for Detect and Alert, and it allows for notification of specified events and even prevention of unwanted situations, eliminating the need for ancillary detection modules. Applicable across a wide range of applications, DnA solutions reduce costs and simplify hardware setups.

Features and Benefits

Local Monitoring

When an unexpected event occurs, the alert will be triggered for warning on site

Trap Alert

When SNMP trap occurs, system can send alert via relay output for instant notification

Cost Saving

DnA switches can already trigger an alert, eliminating the need for extra warning systems

I/O Control

No extra I/O controller is required to control different interfaces, the work can be done by just one DnA switch

Notification Remotely

When DnA is triggered, the switch will send timely notification via eVue and eVue Mobile for instant notification

How it Works

Existing solution
Switches are installed with camera, car plate recognition server, billing system, and I/O controller in the parking lot. When the vehicle is leaving and drives to the gate, the induction coil will trigger a “Billing” checking process by sending a signal to the I/O controller. Then, the gate is opened through the I/O controller.

DnA solution
By eliminating the I/O controller, switches can work with different interfaces with built-in DnA function to achieve the same task, and at the same time eliminate the extra cost.
