Up to 16 fast Ethernet ports can be either 10/100 RJ45 or fiber optic for noise immune links up to 120 km. Software features include RSTP for fast redundant rings, IGMP for multicast filtering, and VLAN for traffic segregation.
Just Released Rack-Mount Managed Ethernet Switches
SIXNET is pleased to introduce the new EK Series of rack-mount industrial Ethernet managed switches offered in 26 port (EK26) and 32 port (EK32) models. These switches are truly industrial rated and designed to meet the requirements of power substations (IEC 61850 / IEEE 1613), traffic control (NEMA TS2), railway applications (EN 50121-4), maritime (ABS/DNV/GL) and more. The rugged and compact 1U rack-mount packaging fits into standard EIA, WECO and ETSI racks from 19" to 24".
The EK26 and EK32 switches are extremely configurable and offer a wide range of Ethernet port options. They feature up to 8 ultra-fast Gigabit ports for 10/100/1000 RJ45 Ethernet links including 4 that are advanced combination ports that also accept industry standard 100 Mb or 1000 Mb SFP fiber optic transceivers. There are up to 16 fast Ethernet ports that can be either 10/100 RJ45 or fiber optic for noise immune links up to 120 km. Plus there are 10 more 10/100 RJ45 ports of which 8 can optionally support advanced PoE (Power over Ethernet) per IEEE 802.3af.
The EK switches are loaded with powerful software features for real-time secure performance. This includes Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) for fast redundant rings, IGMP for multicast filtering, VLAN for traffic segregation, advanced security and much more. Plus firmware upgrades are free. These features are easily configured through SIXNET's user friendly web interface with online help, SNMP or CLI (Command Line Interface).
The EK switches are offered with numerous power input options from 24 VDC to universal VAC including dual inputs for true redundancy. An alarm output signals when a power input fails or other critical events.
The ruggedness and reliability of the new EK switches come from their tough corrosion-resistant case and wide temperature operation (-40 to +85°C). A sealed IP50 option keeps out dust, dirt and debris. These switches will be fully UL/CSA (cUL), CE, FCC and RoHS rated.
