Managing an industrial network is a lot easier with Antaira’s line of managed Ethernet switches. Each switch includes Layer 2 and Layer 3 management functions like SNMP, Rapid Spanning Tree, VLAN, port mirroring, a web console, quality of service (QoS), IP security, IGMP, and much more. Choose from a variety of port densities, fast or gigabit speeds, copper or fiber-optic connections, Power over Ethernet (PoE), extended operating temperature, and redundant input power. Managed Ethernet switches offer superior functionality over unmanaged switches, ensuring that you have more control over how your data travels and who is granted access to it.
To integrate IP cameras, access points, and other devices in locations lacking power or where it’s not feasible to install, take advantage of Power over Ethernet (PoE) enabled switches.
PoE switches combine data and power on a single cable. It eliminates the need to run a separate power cord to the device. Managed PoE switches can cycle power to the device, and they offer power usage, statistics, and diagnostics.
For industrial and outdoor environments, you need a reliable network. Networks need to be able to withstand harsh conditions and function as designed regardless of their environment. That’s why Antaira’s line of managed Ethernet switches operates in a wide temperature range of -10°C to 70°C. This range is standard for all Antaira switches. However, certain applications demand more. For these conditions, an extended operating temperature range of -40°C to 75°C is available (-T suffix on all managed and Power over Ethernet (PoE) switch models). In remote substations or outdoor control panels, installed from Alaska to Arizona, you will have the peace of mind knowing that the Antaria rugged switches withstand the worst heat or cold. Protected by a rugged DIN-rail mount enclosure, they withstand dusty and dirty conditions found on manufacturing floors and in outdoor cabinets. Antaira’s switches are some of the most durable and long-lasting you’ll find. That’s why they include a standard 5-year warranty.
Managed switches deliver advanced traffic control, enhanced security, and seamless performance, essential for mission‑critical environments. At Westward Sales, our networking specialists will work with you to assess your infrastructure, design a scalable solution, and integrate the ideal managed switches to protect your data and maximize uptime.
