Sixnet® Networking Series
Managed Gigabit Ethernet Switch
Red Lion’s Sixnet® series SLX-8MG managed Gigabit
Ethernet switch features eight ports with four SFP
combination ports and Modbus monitoring, providing
reliable connectivity options in harsh environments.
The rugged SLX-8MG managed switch features eight 10/100/1000Base-T(X) ports with four
SFP combo ports (supporting 100Base or 1000Base fiber transceivers). Designed to handle
harsh environments, the SLX-8MG is housed in a slim, hardened metal DIN-rail enclosure,
supports redundant 10-30 VDC power inputs, and offers wire-speed throughput, high MTBF
and a wide -40° to 75°C operating temperature range. Real-Time Ring, self-healing ring
technology, Modbus/TCP remote monitoring and advanced security features ensure reliable
and secure operation in industrial applications.

* Use this special singlemode transceiver with multimode fiber cable for a nominal maximum link distance of 2km. This transceiver offsets the transmitted light
(so no mode conditioning patch cord is required) and is specifically for use with multimode fiber cable. It is recommended that this transceiver be used on both
ends of the cable for best performance. Do not use this transceiver with singlemode fiber cable.
