Switches & Bridges

The Gigabit Ethernet Managed Switches add high-speed ports while offering the management and security features your enterprise network needs. Provides 10/100/1000BASE-T UTP ports and 1G/10G SFP+ ports.

Fully Manageable
The switch is fully managed, supporting SNMP versions 1, 2c, and 3. The embedded RMON software agents support RMON groups 1 (history), 2 (statistics), 3 (alarms), and 9 (events).

The integral webserver enables web-based management via a web browser. This GUI interface enables switch configuration, system dashboard, maintenance, and monitoring.

The wide range of management and support features also includes dual image, port mirroring, LLDP, sFlow®, UPnP®, IPv6, SSH, RADIUS, DHCP Client/DHCPv6 Client, SNTP, cable diagnostics, ping, Syslog, and Telnet client with SSH security.

Support for VLAN and QoS
Support for up to four simultaneous VLANs enables you to segment traffic with port-based, 802.1Q tag-based, or MAC-based VLANs. VoIP traffic is automatically assigned to a voice-specific VLAN to maintain quality. 802.1p Layer 2 quality of service (QoS) enables prioritization of time-sensitive applications such as VoIP and video.

Secure
You get enterprise-class security features, too. 802.1X port-based network access control authenticates devices connecting to your network. The switch also supports SNMPv3 cryptographic security, SSH, and SSL. Plus, you can set up a guest VLAN that enables visitors to access the Internet without also giving them access to the corporate network.

10-GE Uplinks
This switch features 10-GE uplinks that increase backplane capacity.

Super-Fast Switch Control Processor
The Gigabit Ethernet Managed Switch has a powerful switch control processor that improves IGMP performance.

Green
The PoE+ Gigabit Managed Switch Eco features IEEE 802.3az energy-efficient Ethernet, which scales down power consumption during periods of low data activity. This feature adds up to energy savings of up to 50%.

Cable length detection adjusts signal strength to the cable length, reducing power consumption on shorter cable runs.

This product is covered by one or more of the following: United States Patent Nos. 7,457,250; 8,902,760; and/or 9,019,838.

Two different power inputs at the terminal block prevent the power interruptions. When the primary DC power input fails, the backup power input takes over to guarantee non-stop operation.

Unlike the Ethernet switches in your wiring closet or computer center, the switches at the edges of your network have to withstand extreme temperatures and conditions. This is where the Industrial Unmanaged Ethernet PoE+ Switch from Black Box comes in. This extreme industrial switch features four autosensing 10-/100-Mbps PoE/PoE+ 802 af/at copper ports, one autosensing Gigabit copper port and one Gigabit SFP fiber uplink port. Fiber SFPs are available with a variety of connectors in single- or multimode, and with ranges dependant upon the SFP used.

PoE Versatility

Use the switch's four PoE ports to power remote PoE/PoE+ PSD devices such as security cameras and traffic signals in areas where it may be difficult to run electrical wiring. The switch is built for extreme environments with uncontrolled temperatures of -40 to +167° F (-40 to +75° C). A rugged IP30 metal case is sealed to resist contaminants such as dust, dirt and moisture.

Ideal for use in harsh environments, the switch is ideal for:

• Security/surveillance to backhaul IP camera data
• Building automation and HVAC control
• M2M communications with remote stations in oil/gas facilities
• Communications networks for defense and military applications
• Factory automation and machine control

Redundant power

The switch features 48 VDC redundant power, which is secured with a double protection mechanism: Power Polarity Reverse Protect and an Overload Current Resettable Fuse. The former tolerates reverse power wiring while the later protects the switch from overload currents. For PoE, the switch has a power budget of 90 watts.

Alarm alerts

Each port has two LEDs to show link and collision status. The switch also has a P-Fail LED which, in the event of a power failure, will activate the alarm to notify administrators.

Easy to set up.

The switch is literally plug-and-play. All ports are autosensing for speed and duplex, adjusting to the connected device automatically. They also feature Auto MDI/MDI-X, eliminating the need for crossover cables.

Reliable and rugged

Unlike the Ethernet switches in your wiring closet or computer center, the switches at the edges of your network have to withstand extreme temperatures and conditions. This is where the Industrial Unmanaged Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ Switch from Black Box comes in. This extreme industrial switch features eight autosensing 10-/100-/1000-Mbps PoE/PoE+ 802 af/at copper ports and two Gigabit copper ports. Use this rugged switch in harsh environments with temperature extremes of -40° to +75°C, such as loading docks, remote monitoring stations and industrial facilities.

PoE versatility

Use the switch's eight PoE ports to power remote PoE/PoE+ PSD devices such as security cameras, traffic signals, wireless access points, building access devices and automation equipment in areas where it may be difficult to run electrical wiring. The switch is built for extreme environments with uncontrolled temperatures of -40 to +167° F (-40 to +75° C). The rugged IP30 metal case is sealed to resist contaminants such as dust, dirt and moisture and can be DIN-rail or wall mounted.

A multitude of applications

• Security and surveillance, particularly to backhaul IP security camera data
• Military applications, especially in ships and other vehicles
• Factory automation for controlling machinery, PLCs, motor drives, sensors, counters, inspection cameras, and packaging equipment
• Oil and gas fields or remote equipment monitoring and control
• Building automation for controlling HVAC and lighting systems. Security/surveillance to backhaul IP camera data.

Redundant power and alarm alerts

For redundancy, the switch has two 12-24 VDC power inputs with a P-fail relay. If one power source fails, the switch automatically falls over to the second power source. The switch also has a P-Fail LED which, in the event of a power failure, will activate the alarm to notify administrators.

The switch supports jumbo frames up to 9,216 bytes.

This product is covered by one of more of the following: United States Patent Nos. 7,457,250; 8,902,760; and/or 9,019,838.

• Supports connections to Gigabit Ethernet segments.
• Features highly reliable internal telecommunications relays.
• Transparent to data rates, protocols, formats, and signal levels.

Use this Layer 1 switching system to add network backup and failover switching to your data networks. It's ideal for mission-critical applications, including classified information and military systems, broadcast networks, and stock exchanges.

With the Pro Switching System 1U NBS, it's very simple to switch all users from the main network to a backup network at the chassis itself using a momentary toggle switch on the front or via a serial RS-232 workstation.

This model switches all eight leads on the RJ-45 ports. It's designed for use in 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX/1000BASE-TX Ethernet networks, for switching RS-232 circuits that use both data and hardware handshake leads, or any application that requires the use of more than four leads. (We also offer models that switch just Pins 1/2 and 3/6 of the RJ-45 connectors.)

Each switching circuit has a common (C) port that's latched to its associated A or B port, which means it passes signals even if the chassis is without AC power. Because its relays are physically latched into position, once a position is set, it stays set. The switch circuit is as reliable as the CATx cables connected to it.

A key-lockable switch secures the gang switching function. With the key-lock switch in the enabled position, all ports in the Pro Switching System 1U NBS can be simultaneously switched by pressing the momentary toggle switch on the chassis' front.

Port settings are also software controllable, so you can toggle a connected device from the A to the B position from a workstation. You not only have reliable network paths, but you can automate switching to control individual settings.

Need to add ports later? Simply daisy-chain multiple Pro Switching System 1U NBS chassis together - up to 255 in all - and control them as a single system.
