The N-TRON ® 105FX Industrial Network Switch is designed to solve the most demanding industrial communications requirements while providing high throughput and minimum downtime. The 105FX provides four RJ-45 auto sensing 10/100BaseTX ports, plus a fiber based Fast Ethernet uplink port. All TX ports are full/half duplex capable, using "state of the art" Ethernet switching technology. The 105FX auto-negotiates the speed and flow control capabilities of the four TX port connections, and configures itself automatically. The 5th port is a 100BaseFX fiber optic uplink utilizing industry standard ST or SC duplex connectors. Since the TX ports of the 105FX are auto sensing, there will be no need to make extensive wiring changes if upgrades are made to the host computers, plant systems, or Ethernet I/O modules. The switching fabric simply scales up or down automatically to match your specific network environment. The 105FX supports up to 2,000 MAC addresses, thus enabling these products to support extremely sophisticated and complex network architectures. The N-TRON 105FX is an ideal candidate for upgrading existing hubs and repeaters to increase bandwidth and determinism by virtually eliminating network collisions. The product also keeps the network affordable, while maintaining the plug & play simplicity of the unmanaged hub. The 105FX can simplify plant wiring by eliminating the need to bring data acquisition and control network connections back to a climate controlled environment. The 105FX has extended operating environmental specifications to meet the harsh needs of the industrial environment. For cost savings and convenience the 105FX can be DIN-Rail mounted alongside Ethernet I/O or other industrial equipment. The unique compact size provides a smaller footprint, conserving space in the most critical dimension. To increase reliability, the 105FX contains redundant power inputs. LEDs are provided to display the link status and activity of each port, as well as power on/off status.
