Ethernet switches

A family of fibre optical and copper Ethernet switches using Zero-Package-Loss* technology and advanced layer 2 networking and management functions.

Media Converters

Industrial strength Ethernet copper-to-fibre media conversion allowing for 10baseT-to-10baseFLl and 100BaseTX-to-100BaseFX conversion over single mode or mutlimode fibre.

Server Technology

An industrially hardened multiport Serial-to-Ethernet server that allows legacy serial devices to connect to high speed Ethernet networks at 10bps or 100 mbs via copper or fibre.

The server provides four isolated (2kV) serial ports of RS232/485/422 plus an integrated 4-port Ethernet swtich and an optional V.90 moden for remote connectivity.

SDH Multiplexers

The TN1U was originally developed for the very demanding environment of the Power Utilities. For the transportation industry, the TN1U cost-effectively integrates applications including loop detection, CCTV/ANPR, VMS, emergency voice etc using an SDH architecture.

The TN1U’s integrated Network Management System provides ease of maintenance with PC GUI based software or optional SNMP, whilst the compact size, robust design and low power consumption of the unit allows flexible placement of a telecom node anywhere along the transportation corridor.
