Wordsworth releases Ethernet switches
Wordsworth Technology
NS-205-IP67 Ethernet switches
NS-205-IP67 Ethernet switches from Wordsworth Technology are designed for use in industrial waterproof and harsh environments.
The rugged packaging and IP67 connectors guarantee a total protection that can withstand a variety of extreme conditions such as high temperatures, extreme shocks and vibrations, dust particles or even liquid immersion.
They can be directly mounted to any machine or flat surface.
Even with all its rugged features, the switch still provides a high level of functionality, including the ability to support full-duplex communication and 10Mbps/100Mbps transmission speeds.
With 1.4Gbps of total bandwidth, the switch can simultaneously handle full wire speed communication on each port.
A dedicated uplink port enables a connection to other switches without use of a crossover cable.
No programming is necessary as the switch auto-learns network addresses.
An isolated power input of 10 to 30V DC keeps spikes and surges on the power line from damaging the power supply.
The switches feature automatic MDI/MDI-X crossover for plug-and-play.
Each port supports both 10/100Mbps speed auto negotiation.
Other features include: store-and-forward architecture; full duplex IEEE 802.3x and half duplex back-pressure flow control; 1.4Gbps memory bandwidth; integrated look-up engine; supports +10 to +30V DC voltage with 1KV isolation; and reverse polarity protection plastic casing with IP67.
