Overview
The Luminex GigaSwitch 8 Ethernet Switch is equipped with eight neutrik
Ethercon ports providing 10/ 100/ 1000 Mbps Bandwidth.
These ports can be used for connecting PCs, Media servers, ArtNET or
sACN node. Each port can support up to 2000 Mbps of throughput in fullduplex mode. This stand-alone GigaSwitch 8 enables the network to use
most multimedia and imaging applications concurrently with other user
applications without creating bottlenecks.
This all comes in a 19'' unit high metal housing for the Gigaswitch 8. The
Gigaswitch 8 Truss comes in a rugged truss mountable metal housing with
two M10 inserts. This enclosure allows to use the node in a truss, on the
floor or as a table top device.
