●Overview:
●Phoenix Contact"s new SFN (Narrow) switches use 3rd generation switch technology to lower installed costs by up to 70% when compared with current market offerings.
●The new SFN 5- and 8-port switches provide low cost, fully industrially hardened, entry-level switch functions with 5 or 8 ports (10/100 Mbps) in a narrow housing width. These include a uniquely complete range of 100Mbps glass fiber configurations to support 1 or 2 ports with SC or ST style connectors.
●Each SFN switch includes the unique ability to add optional security frames that can be used to block unused RJ45 ports or lock in existing cables. This Physical Layer 1 security restricts network access by unauthorized personnel, yet remains simple for plant floor personnel to implement.
●The SFN series includes the first industrial unmanaged IEEE 802.3z gigabit switches for applications requiring either intense data or the anticipation of future network expansion. The 8-port gigabit SFN switches will provide a broad range of connectivity by allowing 1 or 2 fiber ports and multimode and single mode glass fiber options for distances up to 20km. State-of-the-art gigabit technology includes twisted pair 10/100/1000 capability on all ports.
●FL SWITCH SFN 6TX/2FX ST - Ethernet switch with 6 TP RJ45 ports & 2 FO port complete with 100 mbps full duplex in ST-D format - automatic detection of data transmission rate of 10 or 100 mbps (RJ45) and auto-crossing & auto-negotiating functionality.
●Features:
● Increased Network Performance by Filtering the Data Traffic
● Local Data Traffic Remains Local
● Amount of Data in the Network Segments is reduced
● Simple Network Extension without Configuration of the Switches
● Coupling of Copper Network Segments with Different Transmission Rates with Automatic Detection of Data Transmission Rate of 10 or 100 Mbps
● Auto Negotiation: Each Copper Port Establishes a Half or Full Duplex Connection with 10 or 100 Mbps
● Auto Crossing: It is Not Necessary to Make a Distinction between 1:1 or Crossover Ethernet Copper Cables
● Electrical Isolation of Network Segments Using Up to Two Fiber Optic Ports
●Option to Attach Layer 1 Security Elements to the RJ45 Ports
