[Gigabit L2 Switch Case Study] Eiden Electronics Co., Ltd. (Semiconductor Manufacturing Equipment)
D-Link's Gigabit L2 switch is adopted in domestically produced semiconductor manufacturing equipment, responding to the severe semiconductor shortage with a global supply system.
In 2022, the global expansion of semiconductor demand led to a sharp increase in the shipment of "semiconductor manufacturing equipment." A significant issue that arose was the unprecedented delays in delivery of "embedded devices" used in semiconductor manufacturing equipment. The ongoing semiconductor shortage made it impossible to manufacture embedded devices, resulting in prolonged delivery times, with L2 switches being one of the seriously affected devices. On the other hand, D-Link's Gigabit Layer 2 Easy Smart Switch, the "DGS-1100V2 series," secured sufficient inventory through a global supply system and was adopted as an embedded device for domestic semiconductor manufacturing equipment. To discuss the transition from the previously delivered L2 switches to D-Link's L2 switch DGS-1100V2 series, we spoke with a representative from Sakae Denki Co., Ltd., a comprehensive trading company of electronic components and one of the suppliers for a certain semiconductor manufacturing equipment manufacturer. [Key Points] - D-Link's global supply system responds to the surge in orders for embedded devices in semiconductor manufacturing equipment amid a serious semiconductor shortage. - L2 switches for semiconductor manufacturing equipment prioritize stable operation over a multitude of functions. - The product warranty system allows for long-term support without the need to register each unit's serial number.
