Industrial Switches for applications requiring extended temperature range and intelligence to minimize traffic.
You need to select: 1) A Managed or unmanaged switch and 2) the number of standard copper ports 3) the number of fiber ports (if any)
Industrial Switches (unmanaged) provide a rugid 10/100Mbps switch, DIN rail mounted, using external power supplies.
Managed Industrial Switches provide configurable features like: VLAN, IGMP, Redundancy, mirroring, security, SNMP, and other features which allow you to control every connection to the switch.
Fiber optic links are used for longer distances and high noise areas, there is two types of fiber connections SC (square connector) and ST (round connector), fiber comes in MM Multimode (2K meter distance) and SM Single mode (15K meters distance). The most common is the ST and MM Multimode.
