High-Speed Networking Equipment: Gigabit Switches
New Industrial Gigabit Switches Offer Extreme Durability and Power Management
Two new managed gigabit switch models, the LMP-2804G-4XS-24-T and LMP-2812G-4X8S-24-T, have been designed for low-voltage industrial networking applications. These models offer a range of features that make them ideal for extreme environments, including an extended temperature range of -40°F to 167°F and a fanless design for silent operation.
Power Input and PoE Standards
Both models typically support a 24V DC power input range, with a tolerance of around ±10%. They are compliant with IEEE PoE standards and support PoE/PoE+, as well as IEEE 802.3af/at.
Port Configurations
The LMP-2804G-4XS-24-T offers 24 ports of 10/100/1000Base-T (Gigabit copper ports), and 4 ports of 1G SFP or SFP+, typically 1G (since the name suggests 4XS). The LMP-2812G-4X8S-24-T offers 24 ports of 10/100/1000Base-T, 8 ports of 1G SFP (fiber ports), and 4 uplink ports at Gigabit speed.
Power Management
Both models feature iPoE Budget Control, an intelligent power management technology that dynamically adjusts the PoE budget based on input voltage. This ensures stable PoE operation and prevents power shortages or faults in powering connected devices.
Compact Design
These models have a compact industrial or rack-mount housing depth around 160–220 mm, making them suitable for installation in almost any cabinet.
Operating Temperature Range
The models are designed to operate reliably in temperature ranges approximately -40°C to +75°C.
For exact numeric specs, such as power input voltage range in volts, power budgets in watts, full mechanical dimensions, and precise temperature min/max, consulting the specific official datasheets or product manuals for these exact model numbers from the vendor or manufacturer would be the best source.
These new managed gigabit switches offer a robust solution for industrial networking applications, providing extended temperature ranges, multiple port configurations, and intelligent power management in a compact design.
These new industrial gigabit switches, with their robust design and advanced features, make them suitable for data-and-cloud-computing applications in extreme environments, especially those that require industrial networking.
The inclusion of iPoE Budget Control, an intelligent power management technology, allows these switches to optimize power usage in technology-driven operations, ensuring stable performance and preventing power issues or faults.
