L-com's Category 6 A/B Network Switches are physical layer hardware solutions which support a variety of switching, or access and control applications all in a compact desktop enclosure. These switch boxes feature a unique relay technology that supports the switching mechanism. Non-latching or latching relay configurations are available. The non-latching units provide automatic fail-over to the default Port A to C connection state when power fails or is removed. Latching relays provide the benefit of maintaining the flow of data between the connected devices even when power is removed. Additionally, all units incorporate a proprietary physical interface that enables these switch boxes to meet or exceed the stringent requirements of the Category 6 specification. This allows them to pass 10/100/1000Mbps and 10Gbps data rates. Note: The Ethernet models may be controlled via telnet, web browser or SNMP. Ships with a universal 12V DC power supply with four different style country plugs.
