Example 2.
The Magnum P62F fits very well in high temperature locations (control rooms)
experiencing a need to scale its LAN quickly and cost effectively. With its half / full duplex
switching capability, the P62F provides a very economical high bandwidth solution at each
copper-cable user-access point. The 10/100 dual-speed functions to support a mixed environment
of 10 Mbps and 100Mbps users and devices. The switching capability on all ports provides
bandwidth for high performance. The ruggedness of the P62F steel case and the high reliability of
the design (over 10+ years of MTBF) complements the temperature controlled packaging to
provide an exceptional Ethernet product.
Figure 2.6.2: Three P62F connects together to provide 10 Mbps and100Mbps network with
Fast Ethernet backbone.
In this example, the extended temperature rated P62F takes care of the LAN
connectivity requirement in a harsh temperature environment, mounted above the ceiling in the
building. The non-conductive fiber cabling inter-connects these switches through their fiber ports,
providing a protected Ethernet network facility as part of the building infrastructure. The steel
enclosure and 20-70VDC power input qualifies the Magnum P62F to provide a dependable
solution for any temperature un-controlled location environments. The rugged enclosure with
cable strain feature gives extra protection and security to the cabling to hold the copper and fiber
cable more securely with the Switch ports.
