Application of Industrial Ethernet Switch in AFC System

The AFC system (Automatic Fare Collection System) is an automatic fare collection system that uses industrial Ethernet switches as the hub to achieve the entire process of rail transit fare collection, billing, clearing, and management, providing efficient ticket processing capabilities for modern transportation; The widespread promotion and use of industrial Ethernet switches can achieve data transmission and processing between central systems, station systems, and terminal equipment, thereby achieving clear settlement between beneficiaries of rail transit and external interfaces such as associated systems.

Industrial Ethernet switches play an important role in the AFC automatic fare collection system, enabling fast, accurate, and reliable ticketing and ticketing management functions.

Firstly, industrial Ethernet switches can achieve high reliability and low latency in network communication, ensuring high-speed data transmission and efficient ticketing transactions between station equipment.

Secondly, industrial Ethernet switches can also achieve network security level division and network management, with different security levels to protect access permissions and data security at different levels.

Once again, industrial Ethernet switches can implement virtual local area network (VLAN) technology, dividing the station network into different logical domains according to different business and security levels, in order to achieve effective utilization and security management of network resources.

In addition, in the AFC system, industrial Ethernet switches can also implement data encryption and identity authentication technology to protect personal privacy and network security.
