Black Box LBH2001A-H-LX Hardened Temperature Switch, Singlemode, LC

Black Box LBH2001A-H-LX Gigabit Ethernet Hardened Temperature Switch

The LBH2001A-H-LC compact networking device combines the functions of a copper-to-fiber media converter with that of a Gigabit-speed edge switch. Featuring the two 10-/100-/1000-Mbps copper switch ports and one 1000-Mbps single-mode fiber LC port, the Hardened Media Converter Switch reliably connects segments in harsh factory floor environments, particularly at the network edge, as well as connections in wiring closet and office areas. It's just what you need to expand your Ethernet network in a convenient, compact, and economical way - plus transfer data longer distances, far beyond what's possible with ordinary copper Ethernet cabling links. 

And because it transfers Ethernet packets at Gigabit speeds over fiber, you can ensure secure and interference-free extensions for your data-sensitive, bandwidth-intensive applications. As a hardened networking solution, it features a sealed metal case that protects internal circuitry from dirt, dust, moisture, and other harmful contaminants. The Hardened Mini Gigabit Switch also features an efficient thermal design, so no air inflow is required for cooling.

Key Features

• Supports distances up to 550 meters (1804.4 ft.) on 50-um fiber or 220 meters (721.8 ft.) on 62.5-um fiber
• Features high-grade components and special thermal design for industrial use
• Withstands temperatures of -13 to +140º F (-25 to +60º C)
• No internal airflow required for cooling. The convection case works as a heat sink
• Resists dirt, debris, moisture, smoke, and insects (IEC529 IP40 rated)
• Designed for NEBS compliance to withstand shock, vibration, and high altitudes
• Copper ports auto-negotiate to network and device speeds
• Autocross (MDI-X) on the copper side. Cascade easily without the need for a crossover cable
• Provides full 10-, 100-, and 1000-Mbps switching for high-performance LANs
• Supports VLANs. Retrieves and transmits 802.1q tagged data packets unchanged
• Use store-and-forward type switching to eliminate bad packet propagation and maximize bandwidth
• Dynamically allocates buffer space, minimizing the dropping of frames on congested ports
• Collision-based flow control (half-duplex mode only) stops frames from entering when buffer queue space is low
• Internal addresses are self-learning. Change port connections or domains without affecting operations
• Operates transparent to software
• Plug-and-play installation
• Includes metal panel mounting clips
• RoHS compliant
