NT24K-10FX2 | Managed Ethernet Switches

Red Lion’s NT24k-10FX2 compact managed Ethernet switch features eight 10/100/1000Base-T(X) ports (Gigabit copper) and two 100Base-FX fiber ports with SC or ST connectors, providing a reliable and secure communication network to equipment in harsh environments. It is housed in a compact, hardened metal DIN-rail enclosure with redundant 10-49 VDC power inputs. Designed to handle the most demanding environments, the NT24k-10FX2 offers wire-speed throughput, expanded shock and vibration ratings and wide -40° to 85°C operating temperature rating. With UL/cUL: Class I, Div. 2 Groups A, B, C and D certifications, you know these switches are built to last! IGMP auto-configuration, IEEE 802.1x with remote server authentication and N-Ring fast healing ring technology ensure quick deployment and robust secure network communications.

BEST-IN-CLASS NETWORK MANAGEMENT FEATURES
The NT24K line offers several network features that help provide network visibility, uptime, and security.

 IGMP Snooping: Internet Group Management Protocol allows the N-Tron switch to intelligently forward and filter multicast traffic.

 VLAN: Virtual Local Area Network allows switch segmentation in order to create two or more separate local area network domains.

 QoS: Quality of Service streamlines network operation by managing packet priority.

 Trunking: Trunking (aggregation) enables multiple physical ports to be linked together and function as one uplink to another identically configured trunking-capable switch.

 Port Mirroring: Port mirroring allows traffic on one port to be duplicated and sent to a designated mirror port. -Used to monitor Ethernet traffic on the designated source port using the assigned mirror port.

 SNMP: v1, v2, v3 and Web Browser Management make getting and using local environment data simple.

 IEEE 802.1x with RADIUS: Remote Server Authentication, provides enhanced network access control.

 DHCP Server Option 82 (Relay Agent Information), Option 61 (Client-Identifier), IP fallback

 RSTP-802.1d, 802.1w, 802.1D Provides fast recovery in response to network changes or failures

N-VIEW OPC PORT MONITORING The N-TRON N-View OLE for Process Control (OPC) Server Software can be combined with popular HMI software packages to add network traffic monitoring, trending and alarming to any application using NT24K switches. N-TRON's N-View Server collects 41 different traffic variables per port and 5 system level variables per switch. This information can provide a complete overview of the network load, service quality, and packet traffic. OPC client software can use N-View OPC Server data to resolve network problems quickly and improve system reliability.

N-RING TECHNOLOGY Offers detailed fault diagnostics, and a standard healing time of ~30ms. The ring manager periodically checks the health of the ring via packets. If the ring manager stops receiving these health check packets, it converts the ring to a linear bus topology within ~30ms. When all switches in the ring are N-TRON fully managed switches, a detailed ring map and fault location chart is provided on the ring manager’s web browser and OPC server to identify the health status of the ring. N-Link allows the linking of two N-Rings. Up to 250 fully managed N-TRON switches can participate in N-Ring topologies.
