Sixnet Expands Your Options for DIN-rail Ultra-Rugged Industrial Ethernet Switches
Sixnet's SL and SLX series of DIN-rail industrial Ethernet switches now includes the new 10, 16 and 18 port managed switches, 6 port Real-Time-Ring(tm) switch and 6 port unmanaged switch with two noise-immune fiber optic ports. With the release of these products, Sixnet further extends their SL and SLX series of industrial Ethernet switches that are ideal for DIN-rail or direct-panel mounting in the toughest applications.
Mike O'Connor, Sixnet Product Manager, comments, "With the addition of these switches we are excited to offer a more complete solution of DIN-rail and rack-mount switches from 5-ports up to 32-ports including Gigabit, fiber and PoE options. From unmanaged to ring to fully managed, we have the solution for just about any industrial networking challenge."
The SLX-10MG is a 10 port industrial Ethernet managed switch with 7 fast (10/100) and 3 Gigabit (10/100/1000) ports of which two are combination ports (10/100/1000/SFP) that support both copper and fiber optic connections.
The SLX-16MS is a 16 port (10/100) industrial Ethernet managed switch offering a high port count in a very small footprint. The SLX-18MG adds 2 Gigabit combination ports (10/100/1000/SFP) for a total of 18 ports. These switches are designed to be rugged, reliable, real-time and secure. They combine compact DIN-rail packaging, hardened circuitry and powerful software to keep your system going even under the toughest conditions.
The SL/SLX-6RS-1/4/5 is a 6 port industrial Ethernet ring switch featuring Sixnet's Real-Time-Ring(tm) which provides ultra-fast network redundancy and prioritized message delivery needed in critical systems. The ring ports are pre-configured and just run right out of the box, without needing any user setup. Or you can use the configuration wizard to enable more advanced operations such as Modbus monitoring, QoS and port mirroring. This switch is offered with 6 RJ45 (10/100) ports or with 4 RJ45 plus 2 fiber (100M) ports for noise-immune links up to 120km.
The SL/SLX-6ES-4/5 is a 6 port industrial Ethernet unmanaged switch featuring 4 fast (10/100) and 2 fiber (100M) ports. The fiber ports are perfect for when you need noise-immune connections or you need to connect to a remote device up to 120km away. This switch requires absolutely no user setup and immediately starts operating as soon as you power it up. Providing high performance and value, this switch is ideal for any system and its plug and play feature definitely makes your job easier.
All these rugged switches offer dual power inputs, industrial surge/spike protection and a self-test/alarm output contact to ensure trouble free operation. The SLX models feature an extended operating temperature range of -40 to +85 °C and are housed in a durable and corrosion-resistant metal case designed for DIN rail or direct panel mounting without requiring extra brackets. These switches have proven to be ultra-reliable with a 1,000,000+ hours MTBF, so you can rest assure that Sixnet's products are built to keep your systems running for many years to come.
