Switches and convertors handle strenuous tests
The JetNet 5010G/3010G/4508/2005 and JetCon 1301 provide 1200V AC port to port isolation protection to protect the operator from electrical shock.
Korenix reckons its JetNet 3000 Series entry-level industrial Ethernet switch is the perfect answer.
Apart from its price competitiveness, the JetNet 3000 Series has powerful features the company reckons make users feel they are getting more than they've paid for.
Unlike plastic chassis for commercial switches, the JetNet 3000's IP30-rated aluminium case provides a rugged, acid corrosion-proof and heat resistant solution.
Other key features of JetNet 3000 Series includes the terminal block and ventilation holes that are placed on the bottom side of each unit to reduce the chance of damage due to dust and moisture ingress.
And adopting a store-and-forward switching architecture greatly increases the network efficiency.
To meet industrial device redundancy requirements, all JetNet 3000 models are equipped with a terminal block to provide dual power inputs with reverse polarity protection.
To further cope with harsh industrial environments with extreme temperatures, Korenix has now released the JetNet 3000-w Series entry-level wide temperature industrial Ethernet switch, which has a wider operating temperature range from -40 to +80C, offering extra assurance that systems can run nonstop.
The JetNet 3000 Series includes 5-port TX, 8-port TX, 4-port TX plus 1-port FX (single mode or multi mode), and optional wide operating temperature models.
All JetNet 3000 Series models have MTBFs over 380,000 hours and 5-year warranty worldwide, giving a quick, easy, low-cost, and reliable device-networking solution.
