PT-7728 User’s Manual Introduction
1-2
Overview
The PowerTrans PT-7728 is certified for use in power substation automation systems (IEC
61850-3, IEEE 1613), traffic control systems (NEMA TS 2), and railway applications
(EN50121-4). It can be used for Gigabit or Fast Ethernet backbones and supports redundant ring
topologies. It also supports dual power inputs (24/48 VDC or 110/220 VDC/VAC) to increase the
reliability of communication.
The PT-7728 has a modular design that makes network planning easy and allows greater flexibility.
You can install up to 4 Gigabit Ethernet ports and 24 Fast Ethernet ports. Optional front or rear
wiring makes the PT-7728 suitable for different applications.
