PRODUCT OVERVIEW
The N-TRON
® 105FX Industrial Network Switch
is designed to solve the most demanding industrial
communications requirements while providing high
throughput and minimum downtime.
The 105FX provides four RJ-45 auto sensing
10/100BaseTX ports, plus a fiber based Fast Ethernet
uplink port. All TX ports are full/half duplex capable,
using "state of the art" Ethernet switching
technology. The 105FX auto-negotiates the speed and
flow control capabilities of the four TX port
connections, and configures itself automatically . The
5th port is a 100BaseFX fiber optic uplink utilizing
industry standard ST or SC duplex connectors.
Since the TX ports of the 105FX are auto sensing,
there will be no need to make extensive wiring changes
if upgrades are made to the host computers, plant
systems, or Ethernet I/O modules. The switching
fabric simply scales up or down automatically to match
your specific network environment.
The N-TRON 105FX is an ideal candidate for
upgrading existing hubs and repeaters to increase
bandwidth and determinism by virtually eliminating
network collisions. The product also keeps the
network affordable, while maintaining the plug & play
simplicity of the unmanaged hub. The 105FX can
simplify plant wiring by eliminating the need to bring
data acquisition and control network connections back
to a climate controlled environment.
The 105FX has extended operating environmental
specifications to meet the harsh needs of the industrial
environment. For cost savings and convenience the
105FX can be DIN-Rail mounted alongside Ethernet
I/O or other industrial equipment. The unique
compact size provides a smaller footprint, conserving
space in the most critical dimension.
To increase reliability, the 105FX contains redundant
power inputs. LEDs are provided to display the link
status and activity of each port, as well as power on/off
status.
