With up to six fiber ports in an incredibly small form factor, the new series provides the ability to configure fiber rings and fiber uplinks, in an ultra compact, very cost effective solution.
Fiber optic communication provides excellent noise immunity for environments where high electromagnetic interference (EMI) is a factor—an ever present consideration in railway and power substation installations. The fiber connection also supports links over extended distances, up to 80 km, essential for wind farms and power utilities. Their ultra compact size and versatile mounting options allow these affordable switches to be used anywhere on the network, even in areas where space is very limited.
