Fast Ethernet Fibre Optic Physical Layer Switch


Fast Ethernet Fibre Optic Switch

Our Electronic Fibre Optic Physical Layer Switch provides flexible point-to-point connectivity for growing Fast Ethernet network environments. This Electronic Switch provides system administrators with the ability to remotely connect, re-distribute and monitor fibre optic cable connections in Fast Ethernet LAN environments. The Switch is a scalable solution that provides 8, 16 or 32 Fast Ethernet fibre optic I/O ports for connecting devices in growing networks. The AutoSwitch 2000 software provides the ability to automatically schedule, monitor, switch and re-configure devices connected to the switch. This software enhances switch capability to enable unattended operation and control of Fibre Optic ports. AutoSwitch 2000 can increase network security by monitoring connection activity and notifying of unauthorised configurations. Fibre optic network reliability can be increased by automatically detecting cable failures and reconfiguring the port to secondary cables.

 

Example Application

 

The Electronic Switch includes a standard 10Base-T Ethernet LAN Port connection for remote control and monitoring. Through the use of TCP/IP, system administrators can control the Patch Panel from any workstation on the network.
Up to sixteen frequently used patching configurations may be stored in the Switches non-volatile memory. These user-defined preset configurations may be instantly and effortlessly recalled from the front panel of the unit or via the LAN or RS-232 serial ports. Fast Ethernet fibre optic cables can be connected to any port on the Switch, providing seamless connectivity into high-speed networking environments. The Control Software provides users simple electronic control of the Electronic Switch, enabling Fast Ethernet fibre optic ports to be switched, electronically.
