ASCOM LAN SWITCH RUGGEDIZED - DATASHEET 1 Datasheet

[ product sheet ]
product: LAN switch ruggedized
segment: defense
division: security communication
the managed LAN switch is an integral
product in Ascom's palette
communication equipment. constructed for
harsh environments the
ruggedized unit provides hundreds of thousands
service free hours. equipped with a complete
range of network features, it is engineered into
one of the smallest enclosures available. this
combination offers unique
possibilities such as dismounted soldier systems
and tight space constrained installations.
compliant with military power and
mechanical standards, the LAN switch r is
constructed to the same quality criteria as the
well-known family of ruggedized Ascom
openAccess Nodes. used primarily in military en-
vironments, Ascom
communication systems are equally adaptable
for international peace keeping missions and
crisis management tasks.
ASCOM LAN SWITCH R
CENTRIC OPERATIONS
the Ascom LAN switch r is a very compact and rugged military grade
of military 20-plus port Fast ethernet switch. It offers advanced protocol support and
unique port-based 802.1Q VLAN tagging functionality. this feature enables
ultra-reliable any combination of ports to be connected together in subnets for use in
small secure or non-secure networks. ports can also be easily grouped
together providing redundancy with just milliseconds fast recovery time.
rstp (rapid spanning tree protocol) gives additional network path
redundancy while the fibre-optical and copper ports allow long distance
application connectivity. the switch also supports power over ethernet.
real-time ethernet performance is standard. each port maintains ingress
and egress rate control. other advanced features include IGMp (Internet
Group Management protocol), Query & snooping and port security. Its 'wire-
speed' packet forwarding is based on MAc addresses and automatic intelli-
gent routing prevents collisions and delays. Field programmable, operators
particularly appreciate the integrated friendly Webserver sNMp monito-
ring tools.
network the switch ruggedized package is corrosion resistant and shock/
vibration proof. Its watertight ultra rugged enclosure is hermetically sealed
to totally protect against severe humidity, dust exposure, oil, debris and
other environmental hazards found in harsh situation. It is also highly
reliable in extended-temperature operation. Another benefit of the compact
LAN switch r is the multiple of mounting positions, making it easier to install
and to access the connectors.
