The RS1 Ethernet/Fast Ethernet switches for industrial control and automation networks are DIN rail mounted and DC powered. The 10/100 Mbps full duplex Ethernet switches have been packaged to satisfy the heavy demands of industrial automation. The rail switch system gives users the ability to build 200 Mbps backbone networks. With bus, star or fiber ring topology, the switches can span distances of up to 400 km. The fiber ring technology will detect and bypass a network failure within 300 ms. The switches are designed for the environmental extremes of factory automation, traffic management and process control systems.
