Industrial managed switches offer high speed
The recovery time of a Gigabit fibre ring or a fast Ethernet copper ring connected in JetNet 5010G can reach to less than 5ms.
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.
The fibre media technology also provides high noise immunity against EMI to greatly extend the network connection range while maintaining reliable transmission.
To support mission-critical industrial applications, today's network infrastructure needs connectivity solutions that are reliable and scalable as well as secure and manageable.
That is where fibre media can help.
With built-in terminators, the JetPort 5601f serial device server can be adjusted for best impedance match to serial network lines.
This feature greatly helps the unit deliver the high and reliable serial data throughput when connected as RS422 or RS485 network.
The JetPort 5601f can be configured by JetPort Commander, an easy-to-use utility for Windows that covers all management, monitoring, and control functions for one or many JetPort servers.
In addition to Windows configuration, the unit can be configured by web or Telnet, giving administrators the flexibility for device management.
The JetPort 5601f can be wall- or DIN-rail-mounted.
The JetPort 5601f's serial port supports RS232, RS422 and both two- and four-wire RS485 and is configured by software and supports speed as high as 460.8Kbit/s.
The serial port can work in various communication modes, including virtual com, TCP server, TCP client, UDP, and serial tunnel.
The JetPort 5601f also supports HTTPS and SSH for secured communication management.
Advanced settings for controlling the datacommunications such as TCP alive check, delimiter and timeout are also supported.
For industrial redundant solutions, the unit supports up to five simultaneous connections for virtual COM, TCP server and TCP client modes, sending data to five hosts simultaneously.
