Red Lion® is pleased to announce the launch of the N-Tron® NT116 unmanaged industrial Ethernet switch. The NT116 is designed for industrial applications that require reliable performance for mission-critical applications in harsh environments. The NT116 unmanaged switch provides exceptional reliability and performance for data acquisition, Ethernet I/O and process control. Housed in a rugged industrial metal enclosure, the unit is compact in size and features 16 high-performance copper ports (10/100BaseTX RJ45). The NT116 offers high shock and vibration tolerance. All ports have built-in ESD and surge protection. Users benefit from an exceptional MTBF rating of 1.2 million hours. All this in a slim, space-saving design that operates from -40°C to 85°C.
For robust network support
The NT116 supports full wire speed communications with up to 3.2Gb/s throughput. It uses store-and-forward technology and supports full and half-duplex operation. Two 10-49 VDC power inputs are provided for redundancy.
In addition to IEEE 802.3 compliance and marine, railway and rolling stock certifications, the new switch has UL Ordinary and Hazardous locations as well as ATEX and IECEx certifications. The new switch makes it easier to collect critical performance data. Its rugged and hardened design provides the durability and reliability needed to withstand the extreme conditions found in control networks on the factory floor and in applications such as oil and gas, utilities, waste water treatment, alternative energy, railways, intelligent traffic control and transportation.
