PRODUCT OVERVIEW
The
105TX Industrial Network Switch is designed to
solve the most demanding industrial communication
requirements while providing high throughput and
minimum downtime.
The
105TX provides four RJ-45 auto sensing
10/100BaseTX ports. All ports are full/half duplex
capable, using "state of the art" Ethernet switching
technology. The
105TX auto-negotiates the speed and
fl ow control capabilities of the four TX port connections,
and confi gures itself automatically.
Since the
105TX 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.
The
105TX supports up to 2,000 MAC addresses,
enabling these products to support extremely
sophisticated and complex network architectures.
The is an ideal candidate for upgrading existing hubs
and repeaters to increase bandwidth and determinism by
virtually eliminating network collisions. The
N-TRON
105TX
combines affordability and the plug & play
simplicity of the unmanaged hub.
The 105TX can simplify plant wiring by eliminating
the need to bring data acquisition and control network
connections back to a climate controlled environment.
The
105TX has extended operating environmental
specifi cations to meet the harsh needs of the industrial
environment. For cost savings and convenience it can
be DIN-Rail mounted alongside Ethernet I/O or other
Industrial Equipment.
To increase reliability the
105TX provides dual
redundant power inputs. LED's are provided to display
the link status and activity of each port.
