8-Port Industrial AI Smart Managed Fiber Ethernet Switch
The LNK-AIMC208GM-SFP is a compact 8-port industrial managed fiber switch designed for reliable Ethernet and fiber connectivity in industrial and infrastructure networks. It provides 8 × 10/100/1000Mbps Gigabit RJ45 ports and 2 × 100/1000/2.5GBASE-X SFP fiber uplink ports, giving you flexible copper and fiber connectivity in a compact DIN-Rail mountable enclosure.
The switch combines industrial Ethernet switching with intelligent monitoring and management. Through the E-link Android mobile app, PC web interface, or built-in LED display, users can monitor system voltage, current, temperature, Ethernet link status, fiber link status, SFP optical power, wavelength, transmission distance, link speed, and other DDM information.
With 9–54V DC wide-range power input, dual redundant power support, 6KV surge protection, VLAN isolation, fiber port alarms, scheduled system reset, and -40°C to 75°C operating temperature, the LNK-AIMC208GM-SFP is designed for demanding industrial networking environments.
This is a Non-PoE switch and does not provide power over Ethernet.

8 Gigabit Ethernet Ports + 2.5G Fiber Uplinks
The LNK-AIMC208GM-SFP provides eight copper Ethernet ports for connecting local network devices such as computers, industrial controllers, PLCs, IP cameras, sensors, and other Ethernet equipment.
All eight RJ45 interfaces support 10/100/1000Mbps auto-negotiation, allowing the switch to automatically select the appropriate network speed.
For longer-distance network connections, the two SFP ports provide fiber uplink capability with support for 100Mbps, 1Gbps, and 2.5Gbps operation, depending on the DIP switch setting and compatible SFP module.
This combination makes the switch suitable for applications that require multiple Gigabit Ethernet connections while using fiber for uplinks between network cabinets, buildings, production areas, or remote equipment.
Smart Management and Network Monitoring
Instead of requiring separate testing equipment, the LNK-AIMC208GM-SFP provides integrated network monitoring through the E-link management system.
Users can access device information through:
- Android mobile app
- PC web management interface
- Front-panel LED indicators
The management interface can display important operating information including:
- System voltage
- System current
- Internal temperature
- Ethernet port link status
- Ethernet negotiated speed
- SFP link status
- SFP module PN/SN
- TX optical power
- RX optical power
- Wavelength
- Transmission distance
- Link rate
- SFP module temperature
- Available SFP DDM information
This makes it easier to identify network and fiber-link issues without using separate optical testing equipment.
SFP DDM Monitoring
The SFP interfaces support detailed Digital Diagnostic Monitoring when compatible DDM-capable transceiver modules are installed.
The system can provide information such as optical transmit power, receive power, wavelength, transmission distance, module temperature, and other available SFP diagnostic parameters.
A fiber alarm can also be configured to help identify low received optical power and potential fiber-link problems.
SFP transceiver modules are sold separately.
VLAN Isolation and Network Management
The LNK-AIMC208GM-SFP includes practical management functions for industrial Ethernet networks.
One-Click VLAN Isolation
VLAN isolation can be enabled through the dedicated DIP switch to help separate connected devices and reduce unnecessary communication between network ports.
Fiber Port Alarm
The switch can monitor fiber-link conditions and provide an alarm when the received optical power falls below the configured threshold.
Scheduled System Reset
Scheduled reboot functionality can be used for routine maintenance and long-term unattended operation.
Redundant Network Recovery
In redundant mode, the switch supports automatic recovery. If the destination port of a packet becomes link-down, traffic can be forwarded through the other port of the backup pair.
Built for Industrial Environments
The compact aluminum enclosure is designed for industrial installations where space and environmental reliability are important.
With a -40°C to 75°C (-40°F to 167°F) operating temperature range, the switch can be deployed in control cabinets, industrial equipment rooms, outdoor infrastructure, and other environments with significant temperature variation.
The 9–54V DC input range provides compatibility with a wide range of industrial DC power systems. Dual redundant power inputs can help maintain network operation in applications where continuous connectivity is important.
The switch also provides 6KV surge protection on all ports to improve protection against electrical surges in demanding installation environments.
Compact DIN-Rail Design
Measuring only 98 × 67 × 64 mm, the LNK-AIMC208GM-SFP provides eight Gigabit Ethernet ports and two SFP fiber ports without requiring a large amount of cabinet space.
The included DIN-Rail mounting bracket allows convenient installation in:
- Industrial control cabinets
- Automation panels
- Electrical distribution cabinets
- Transportation equipment
- Network cabinets
- Energy systems
- Outdoor communication enclosures
