FL SWITCH SFN ...
Data Sheet
Description
The FL SWITCH SFN ... range of Factory Line switches with
standard functions in numerous versions can be used for
quick and cost-effective Ethernet network expansion to the
field level. Due to their narrow housing design, the compo-
nents are suitable for universal remote use in control cabi-
nets and junction boxes. The switches have five or eight
ports, up to two of which are glass fiber ports provided in SC
or ST format. The switches support the auto negotiation
function at the twisted pair ports and offer transmission
speeds of 10/100/1000 Mbps depending on the switch ver-
sion. Mixed operation for the connection of segments with
different data transmission speeds is also supported. The
glass fiber ports only support 100 Mbps or 1000 Mbps (Gi-
gabit version).
The RJ45 ports offer an auto crossing function, which
means it is not necessary to make a distinction between 1:1
and crossover cables.
The fiber optic ports can be used to extend the segment
length up to 20 km. Unused RJ45 ports can be fitted with
security caps to provide mechanical protection against un-
authorized use.
Features and Fields of Application
– Increased network performance
- Switched Ethernet reduces traffic and non predictable
timing
- Quality of Service: Pretagged high priority messages
are forwarded before lower priority messages during
periods of high network traffic loading
- Gigabit options for data intensive applications
– Easy network expansion
- No configuration of the switch
- Autonegotiation and autocross simplify cabeling
- Coupling copper network segments with different bit
rates with automatic detection of the data
transmission speed of 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps or
1000 Mbps depending on the switch version.
– Fiber optic options extend distance and electrical noise
immunity
- 1 or 2 ports option
- SC or ST connector options
- Multimode or singlemode option
Low cost, low complexity security (optional)
- Connect Layer 1 security elements at the RJ45 port to
restrict access or tampering
- No software setup needed
Please note the different connection directions of the transmission media for five-port switches: copper cables
are connected at the front, glass fiber cables at the bottom.
Make sure you always use the latest documentation.
