74x Function and application The Nexans iSwitch 7xx series makes switching technology possible in the local loop. This series emphasizes cost- effectiveness and flexibility by making up to sixfold use of a central LAN connection – the so-called Uplink.
Nexans Active Networking Systems Industrial Ethernet iSwitch 74x Functionality The self-learning switch works according to the store-and-forward principle. In full-duplex mode it supports flow control according to IEEE802.3x and in half-duplex mode it supports the backpressure feature. The system has been designed for Power over Ethernet (PoE) features. A maximum of 4 users can be supplied with power (PoE PSE).
