Press Release Summary:
DIN rail, wall, and piggyback mount 10/100Base-T Ethernet switches accept voltages from 10-30 Vdc, with surge protection to 3,000 Vdc. ADAM 6521 lets users interconnect 4 copper (RJ-45) and 1 fiber-optic (SC) networks, while ADAM 6520 provides 5 RJ-45 Ethernet ports. Both modules automatically sense 10 or 100 Mbps speeds and provide full and half-duplex flow control. Surge protected to 3,000 Vdc, products feature diagnostic LEDs on front panel.
Original Press Release:
Rugged Ethernet Switches Ideal for DC Environments
Rugged 10/100Base-T Ethernet switches accept any voltage between 10 and 30 Vdc with surge protection to 3,000 Vdc, so they are ideal for any DC environment. The ADAM 6521 (shown) lets you interconnect 4 copper (RJ-45) and 1 fiber-optic (SC) networks, while ADAM 6520 provides 5 RJ-45 Ethernet ports.
Both of these new ADAM modules are suitable for production lines, inventory systems, and conveyor control, according to Mike Mathis, Application Engineering Manager at CyberResearch, Inc. "And they're really great for pulling in signals from remote data-acquisition modules," he says. Both models automatically sense 10 or 100 Mbps speeds and provide full and half-duplex flow control. Their RJ-45 ports connect to any 10/100Base-T Ethernet network, or they can interconnect PCs that have Ethernet cards. For even greater flexibility, the SC fiber-optic port on ADAM 6521 makes it easy to connect 10/100Base-T copper networks to a 100Base-FX fiber-optic network.
ADAM modules accept unregulated 10~30Vdc input power, and are surge protected to 3,000Vdc. They mount on DIN rails, walls, and piggyback. Diagnostic LEDs on the front panel indicate power status and networking status.
In addition to Ethernet switches - now shipping from stock - CyberResearch, Inc., also offers panel-mount, rack-mount, and desktop PCs, as well as CPU cards, data-acquisition, and motion-control systems.
