8-Port Managed Ethernet Switch / Redundant-Ring Fiber Optic Converter (Industrial / Multi-Mode / ST)
The MSW-1208-FO (MM/ST) is a rugged, fan-less, industrial-grade, layer 2, managed 10/100M Ethernet switch that supports star, daisy-chain or redundant-ring network topology. The MSW-1208-FO equips with 6 Fast Ethernet ports and 2 fiber ports, and it features rich layer 2 managed functions such as VLAN, QoS, IGMP Snooping, LLDP, Fast Ring, RSTP, Port Trunking, Port Mirroring, SNMP, IP Address Access Control, and Port Authentication, etc. All configurations and settings can be done through the built-in user-friendly web management interface. The unit can be configured as a self-healing redundant-ring network with a fast recovery time of 15ms, and it also features redundant 12 to 48 VDC power inputs, as well as relay alarm output for instant system malfunction notification, making it an ideal solution for uninterrupted, mission-critical industrial applications. The MSW-1208-FO (MM/ST) supports flexible network topology, including daisy-chain and redundant-ring fiber links, and each fiber node can extend the 10/100M Ethernet’s distance to 1.2 miles (2km) for multi-mode converters and cables. The MSW-1208-FO runs on a light-speed fiber backbone inherently resistant to radio and electrical interference, such as EMI/RFI, transient surges, and ground loops. It overcomes the limitations of a conventional point-to-point fiber network and dramatically expands the Ethernet network in terms of distance, flexibility, and reliability.
