Wireless gateways gain secure options
The Elpro 105U range of wireless gateways and I/O modules for applications in industrial plant, can now offer improved security for industrial users.
The cost and space saving ED-11 TCP/330 has been designed to meet high industrial specifications, providing very high dependability in harsh environmental conditions.
The device is available with either three copper ports or two copper and one fibre.
The ED-11 TCP/321 version has a single fibre-optic interface, fitted with an SC style connection capable of making connections up to 2km in distance.
The Ethernet switch's TX ports all support auto-negotiation, but DIP switches also allow any individual TX port to be fixed to full/half duplex or 10/100Mbit/s.
The three TX screens are separately isolated.
In order to function in the same network the two halves of the product are linked externally with a patch-cord.
Configuration of the serial adapter is simple using Windows based programming software supplied by Westermo.
The ED-11 range can be configured locally or remotely over the network.
Optional password protection for remote access is available.
A wide DC power range is available on both models as well as LEDs for diagnostics.
