Ethernet cabinet mount switch

April 2005 Enclosures, Cabling & Connectors

Woodhead Connectivity's ENHSC is a compact, economically priced, Ethernet cabinet mount switch for applications in less demanding environments. Despite its small size, the unit still offers full wire speed switching and a host of advanced network functions.

Its magnetic mounting allows the switch to be installed on any steel or iron surface without the need for brackets or Velcro. All ports can support MDI/MDIX auto detection of crossover, providing complete flexibility on designation of an uplink port.

The store and forward switch with address auto-learning and 10/1000 auto-negotiation, enhances bandwidth efficiency, aiding in determinism for control applications. No programming is required, allowing the switch to be installed and transferring data in minutes. It meets IP 20 requirements and operates in a temperature range from 0°C to 45°C.
