Description

RED LION N-Tron 716M12 Ethernet switch

Product Dimensions：

The N-Tron® 716M12 is a rugged, fully managed industrial Ethernet switch designed specifically for high-vibration and extreme environment applications. Its most defining feature is the use of M12 connectors, which provide a water-tight and vibration-resistant connection compared to standard RJ45 ports.

1. Product Detailed Description

The 716M12 is housed in a hardened metal enclosure with an IP67 rating, meaning it is completely protected against dust and can withstand temporary immersion in water. It features 16 fast Ethernet ports and is engineered for mission-critical applications where downtime is not an option. It includes advanced management features like N-Ring™ technology, which allows for ultra-fast network recovery.

2. Technical Parameters (Specifications)

3. Key Product Advantages

• Vibration Resistance: The M12 screw-lock connectors ensure that cables never shake loose, making it ideal for moving vehicles or heavy machinery.

• Extreme Durability: With an MTBF (Mean Time Between Failures) of over 2 million hours and a wide operating temperature, it survives where commercial switches fail.

• Rapid Recovery: The proprietary N-Ring™ technology can heal a network ring in less than 30 milliseconds, ensuring continuous data flow for automated systems.

• No Fans Required: The high-grade metal housing acts as a heat sink, allowing for silent, reliable cooling without moving parts that could fail.

4. Important Considerations (Usage Notes)

• Cable Selection: Ensure you use industrial-grade, shielded M12 D-coded cables to maintain the IP67 integrity and signal quality.

• Power Supply: While it supports redundant power inputs, ensure your DC power source is stable within the 10-49V range to prevent hardware resets.

• Grounding: Proper grounding of the metal chassis is essential in high-EMI (Electromagnetic Interference) environments to protect the internal circuitry.

• Firmware: Regularly check for N-Tron firmware updates to ensure the latest security protocols and management features are active.

5. Product Applications

• Railway & Transportation: Onboard train systems (PIS, CCTV, and engine diagnostics) where constant motion and vibration occur.

• Mining & Heavy Equipment: Monitoring sensors and telematics on large-scale excavators or drilling rigs.

• Food & Beverage: Wash-down environments where equipment is frequently sprayed with water or cleaning agents.

• Marine & Offshore: Communication networks on ships or oil platforms exposed to salt spray and moisture.
