NETWORK ELECTRONICS

These are devices that change the signal from optical to electrical (and vice versa).

Media converters are simple devices that convert an Ethernet signal from electrical to optical signal (1 or 2 fiber). The industrial media converters have an extended temperature range. Many of the media converters have fixed optical interfaces, but some can also be obtained with plug-in electronics (SFP) to accommodate different types of optical interfaces.

Switches allow you to connect multiple Ethernet lines before converting them to an optical signal. The switches exist with and without management. All uses plug-in electronics (SFP) that allows connection to different types of optical interfaces. Here too, the industrial versions have an extended temperature range.

Fiber media converters makes the connection of different media types possible, for instance twisted pair to fiber optic cabling. This can be done with many different communication protocols, like Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet, RS232 and so on. Industrial media converters are designed for tough environments with rugged chassis and can operate in a wide temperature range. Most of our media converters use pluggable optical devices (SFP) so one converter model can be used in a variety of applications.

Network switches are used for connecting computer equipment together and communicate between them. Managed switches have advanced functions like Virtual LAN, port mirroring and SNMP, while unmanaged switches are plug and play whit no configuration needed. Most of our switches use pluggable optical devices (SFP). We have a wide range of industrial switches, and DNV sertified models for shipping and off shore installation.
