Remote Monitoring Options
Web browser and N-View OPC (OLE for process control) server software provides
con guration and monitoring capability. N-View software easily combines with HMI
software to monitor network traf c, alarms, and trends. SNMP is also available for
switch link and status monitoring. Status LEDs are con gurable to indicate power
failure and N-Ring status.
N-Ring Technology
N-Ring technology provides expanded ring capacity, detailed fault diagnostics,
and fast 30ms healing time. The ring manager validates the integrity of the ring
using health check packets and quickly converts the ring to a linear topology
within ~30ms when an error is detected. The health status of a ring comprised of
all N-TRON fully managed switches may be monitored. A detailed ring map and
fault location chart may be accessed by the ring manager's web browser or the
OPC server. N-Link allows the linking of two N-Rings. Up to 250 fully managed
N-TRON switches are supported in an N-Ring topology.
Industrial Speci cations
High MTBF, extended shock and vibration specifications, wide operating
temperature range and redundant power inputs are standard features.
Ease of Use
The 10/100BaseTX ports are auto sensing and auto con guring. Each copper port
is automatically negotiated for maximum speed and performance by default, but
can also be hard coded through the user interface. A high-speed processor allows
wire speed capability on all 10/100BaseTX ports simultaneously.
The N-TRON
®
709FX compact, fully managed industrial Ethernet switch is housed
in a rugged industrial metal enclosure and offers a powerful combination of eight
10/100BaseTX copper ports and one 100Base ber port. It is ideally suited for
use in industrial applications such as factory oor control networks, utilities, wind
turbines, wastewater treatment facilities, rail car, intelligent traf c control and
transportation applications, and any other application where high reliability, superior
noise immunity, extreme ruggedness, and extended distance are required.
