Antaira Technologies is a developer and manufacturer of industrial networking devices and communication solutions for harsh environment applications and is proud to announce the expansion of its industrial networking infrastructure family with the introduction of the LMP-1802G-SFP and LMX-1802G-SFP Series.
Antaira’s LMP-1802G-SFP and LMX-1802G-SFP series are industrial-grade equipment that is Ethernet ready to fulfil various markets’ edge-level networking applications in harsh and outdoor environments, such as manufacturing automation, security surveillance, power/utility, waste water treatment plants, oil/gas/mining, and transportation.
Industrial switches
These devices support high density Ethernet port connectivity, wide bandwidth, long distance data transmission, and have a superb reliability factor. The LMX-1802G-SFP Series is an ideal choice for campus ring solutions with its two fibre optic ports supporting an open standard ring technology (ERPS).
These outdoor devices are able to communicate and send critical information back to an enterprise switch
There are many proprietary ring technologies available but using an open standard like ERPS means that it is possible to have equipment from different manufacturers working together in the ring. For example, campuses have networking rings consisting of hardened and industrial switches for outdoor environments that require a wide temperature-rated device. These outdoor devices are able to communicate and send critical information back to an enterprise switch at a data center.
Electromagnetic interference
Antaira’s LMP-1802G-SFP Series can not only provide a large number of PoE ports (30 Watts) for high density security applications, but also fibre optic interfaces for long range connectivity (1 meter to 100 KM) that is 3 feet to over 60 miles. The SFP port will not only allow connectivity beyond the 100 meter/300-foot limitation of copper cable but also permits connectivity through areas where electromagnetic interference may cause issues such as on a factory floor.
The Antaira management software on these switches helps monitor, react, and troubleshoot applications to reduce the cost of maintenance and downtime. Features such as SNMP Traps, Syslog, and port mirroring can be priceless when maintaining a system and reducing issues causing outages.
