Magnum P62-Series Hardened Switches | Installation and User Guide (08/03) |
Example 2.
The Magnum P62F fits very well in high temperature locations (control rooms) experiencing a need to scale its LAN quickly and cost effectively. With its half / full duplex switching capability, the P62F provides a very economical high bandwidth solution at each copper-cable user-access point. The 10/100 dual-speed functions to support a mixed environment of 10 Mbps and 100Mbps users and devices. The switching capability on all ports provides bandwidth for high performance. The ruggedness of the P62F steel case and the high reliability of the design (over 10+ years of MTBF) complements the temperature controlled packaging to provide an exceptional Ethernet product.

In this example, the extended temperature rated P62F takes care of the LAN connectivity requirement in a harsh temperature environment, mounted above the ceiling in the building. The non-conductive fiber cabling inter-connects these switches through their fiber ports, providing a protected Ethernet network facility as part of the building infrastructure. The steel enclosure and 20-60VDC power input qualifies the Magnum P62F to provide a dependable solution for any temperature un-controlled location environments. The rugged enclosure with cable strain feature gives extra protection and security to the cabling to hold the copper and fiber cable more securely with the Switch ports.
