900 Series Industrial Ethernet Switches 

 

The 900 Series Modular Industrial Ethernet Switches support high speed layer 2 switching between ports.  
The  900B  and  900N  enclosures  contain  a  three  slot  backplane  that  supports  up  to  three  modules.    The 
908TX,  902FX  and  904FX  modules  are  the  available  modules.    The  N-TRON  Corp.  900B  is  housed  in  a 
ruggedized steel enclosure, and can withstand industrial temperatures, as well as extreme shock & vibration. 
 
The  908TX  is  an  8  port  module  that  is  capable  of  auto  negotiating  10/100  Mb  and  half/full  duplex 
communications.    The  N-TRON  908TX  also  supports  MDIX  auto  sensing  (for  auto  connector  of  straight 
through  or  crossover  cables)  and  provides  8  Category  5  compliant  10/100-BaseT  connections  for  high 
performance network design, and hub/repeater upgrades.   
 
The  902FX  is  a  two  port  100Mb  module  that  supports  multimode  fiber.    ST  and  SC  connectors  are 
available.  
 
The 902FXE is a single mode (laser) version of the 902FX, and can support distances of up to 80km. 

 

The 904FX and 904FXE are four port versions of the 902FX and 902FXE respectively.
