The N-TRON 508TX-N is designed to operate in industrial environments. It is housed in a rugged steel enclosure that can be DIN-RAIL or Panel Mounted. Optional kits are available for rack mount applications. Like all N-TRON products, the 508TX-N comes standard with extended temperature ratings, extended shock and vibration specs, redundant power inputs, and high MTBF (greater than 2M hours). The N-TRON 508TX-N requires no setup unless the advanced port functions are utilized. The eight 10/100BaseTX ports are auto sensing and auto configuring. Each port is automatically negotiated for maximum speed and performance by default. Bi-color LED's are provided to display the link status, link speed and activity of each port as well as power on/off status. The N-TRON 508TX-N uses "state of the art" IEEE 802.3 Fast Ethernet 10/100BaseTX switching technology. This eliminates network collisions and increases network determinism. 4,000 MAC addresses are supported enabling sophisticated and complex network architectures. A high speed processor and backplane allows wire speed capability on all ports simultaneously.
N-VIEW OPC PORT MONITORING OPTION
The N-TRON N-View OLE for Process Control (OPC) Server Software can be combined with popular HMI software packages to add network traffic monitoring, trending and alarming to any application using N-TRON switches configured with the N-View option. N-TRON's N-View OPC Server collects 41 different traffic variables per port and 5 system level variables per switch. This information can provide a complete overview of the network load, service quality, and packet traffic. OPC client software can use N-View OPC Server data to resolve network problems quickly and improve system reliability.
