Red Lion NT24k ethernet switches

Control Logic has added 18 compact models to its Red Lion NT24k managed Gigabit Ethernet industrial switch range. The NT24k 10- to 14-port DIN rail-mountable switches feature Fast Ethernet, Gigabit or dual-mode fibre ports alongside eight Gigabit copper ports with optional IEEE 802.3af/at PoE+ support.

Each switch accepts redundant 22–49 VDC power input and offers a step-up power boost circuit to eliminate the need for a standalone 48 VDC power supply. In addition, Red Lion’s new PoE+ switches provide up to 240 W PoE output power to support applications such as security cameras, panel displays and wireless access points.

With a hardened metal housing, each NT24k switch provides 200g shock and 50g vibration tolerance coupled with up to a -40 to 85°C operating temperature range. They also offer a full set of management features and advanced security to ease network deployment with key functionality that includes Jumbo Frame support, SD card and XML configuration backup and restore, auto-IGMP configuration, Ethernet/IP with CIP messaging, ring technology with 30 ms recovery, event logging, SNTP and IEEE 802.1x with RADIUS remote server authentication.
