• Supports full/half duplex operation
• Auto sensing speed and flow control
• Full wire speed communications
• Surge protection diodes on power inputs
• Store-and-forward technology
• ESD protection diodes on all ports
• Extended environmental specification is -40 to 85deg C, operating humidity 10% to 95%, 0 to 10000 ft operating altitude and reliability >2 million hours MTBF
• Compact size/small footprint
• The 108TX industrial network switch is designed to meet the most demanding industrial communications requirements While providing high throughput and minimum downtime
• The 108TX provides eight RJ-45 auto sensing 10/100BaseTX ports, all ports are full/half duplex capable, using leading-edge Ethernet switching technology
• The 108TX auto-negotiates the speed and flow control capabilities of the eight TX port connections, and configures itself automatically
• Since the 108TX is auto sensing, there will be no need to make extensive wiring changes if upgrades are made to host computers, plant systems, or Ethernet I/O modules
• The switching fabric simply scales up or down automatically to match specifi c network environments
• Supports up to 2,000 MAC addresses, enabling These products to support extremely sophisticated and complex network architectures
• Ideal candidate for upgrading existing hubs and repeaters to Increase bandwidth and determinism by virtually eliminating network collisions
• Combines affordability and the plug & play simplicity of the unmanaged hub, simplify plant wiring by eliminating the need to bring data acquisition and control network connections back to a climate controlled environment
• Has extended operating environmental specifications to meet the harsh needs of the industrial environment
• For cost savings and convenience the network switch can be DIN rail mounted alongside Ethernet I/O or other industrial equipment
