High-Voltage Ethernet Switches from Red Lion

By Design World Staff | May 1, 2012

Red Lion Controls announce a new N-Tron series of compact high-voltage industrial Ethernet switches designed for use in extreme environments.

Red Lion’s N-Tron series of compact high-voltage switches provides a variety of fiber connectivity options that enables customers to cost-effectively customize solutions to meet specific network requirements. With up to four fiber optic ports, the new switches provide noise immunity for areas subject to high electromagnetic interference (EMI). Fiber Ethernet supports distances up to 80km, making it ideal for wind farm, railway and power applications.

The N-Tron high-voltage switches provide a uniform basis for the protection, connectivity and control of communications devices in harsh environments. The series is certified by KEMA Labs, a respected certification testing laboratory specializing in the energy market for compliance with the IEC 61850-3 and IEEE 1613 standards for electric utility applications such as power substations.

The following N-Tron series of compact high-voltage industrial Ethernet switches are now available through Red Lion’s worldwide network of distributors:

• 709FX-HV: fully-managed industrial Ethernet switch with eight auto sensing 10/100BaseTX ports and one 100Base fiber port

• 710FX2-HV: fully-managed industrial Ethernet switch with eight auto sensing 10/100BaseTX ports and two 100Base fiber ports

• 711FX3-HV: fully-managed industrial Ethernet switch with eight auto sensing 10/100BaseTX ports and three 100Base fiber ports

• 712FX4-HV: fully-managed industrial Ethernet switch with eight auto sensing 10/100BaseTX ports and four 100Base fiber ports

• 7012FX2-HV: fully-managed industrial Ethernet switch with eight auto sensing 10/100BaseTX ports, two 100Base fiber ports and two SFP gigabit expansion ports
