PRODUCT OVERVIEW
The

108TX

industrial network switch is designed to

meet the most demanding industrial communications
requirements while providing high throughput and
minimum downtime.

The

1 0 8 T X

provides eight RJ-45 auto sensing

10/100BaseTX ports. All ports are full/half duplex
capable, using "state of the art" Ethernet switching
technology. The

108TX

auto-negotiates the speed and

flow control capabilities of the eight TX port
connections, and confi gures itself automatically.

Since the

108TX

is auto sensing, there will be no need

to make extensive wiring changes if upgrades are
made to host computers, plant systems, or Ethernet I/O
modules. The switching fabric simply scales up or down
automatically to match specifi c network environments.

The

108TX

supports up to 2,000 MAC addresses,

enabling these products to support extremely
sophisticated and complex network architectures.

The

N-TRON 108TX

is an ideal candidate for upgrading

existing hubs and repeaters to increase bandwidth and
determinism by virtually eliminating network collisions.
The

108TX

combines affordability and the plug & play

simplicity of the unmanaged hub.

The

108TX

can simplify plant wiring by eliminating the

need to bring data acquisition and control network
connections back to a climate controlled environment.
The

108TX

has extended operating environmental

specifi cations to meet the harsh needs of the industrial
environment. For cost savings and convenience the
network switch can be DIN-Rail mounted alongside
Ethernet I/O or other Industrial Equipment.

To increase reliability the

108TX

includes dual

redundant power inputs. LEDs are provided to
display the link status and activity of each port.
