Fiber Ring Management

The 608MFX redundancy manager performs high speed ring man- agement in the industrial control environment. This switching system can be used in conjunction with other N-TRONswitches in order to create the most cost effective network ring solution available for industrial applications. Two 608MFX units can be coupled via their standby ports to provide dual rings for complete hardware and fiber ring redundancy for applications requiring this level of fault tolerant operation.

Industrial Packaging and Specifications

The N-TRON608MFX is designed to operate in industrial environments. It is housed in a rugged steel enclosure that can be DIN-RAIL or Panel Mounted. Optional kits are available for rackmount applications. It has extended industrial specifications and features to meet or exceed the specifications of the equipment it is connecting. These include extended temperature ratings, extended shock and vibration specs, redundant power inputs, and high MTBF (greater than 1M hours).

Ease of Use

The N-TRON608MFX is a fully managed switch which can be easily configured using a direct terminal connection, Telnet, or standard SNMP browsers. Management functions include filtering, port mirroring, event trapping, packet prioritization (QoS), and port parameterization settings. A simple toggle switch enables ring management on the 608MFX with no other setup required. The 608MFX provides remote monitoring (RMON) of port data. Six RJ-45 10/100BaseTX ports are auto sensing and auto configuring. Each port is automatically negotiated for maximum speed and performance by default. LED's are provided to display the link status and activity of each port as well as power on/off status.

Performance

The N-TRON608MFX uses "state of the art" IEEE 802.3 Fast Ethernet 10/100BaseTX switching technology. This eliminates network collisions and increases network determinism. 7,000 MAC addresses are supported enabling sophisticated and complex network architectures. A high speed processor and backplane allows full wire speed capability on all ports simultaneously.

High Quality and Reliability

N-TRONis a worldwide leader in Industrial Networking technology and offers proven reliability and quality.
