Posted by EDA Geek News Staff in Industrial, Wireless on Wednesday, April 30, 2008

Ethernet Direct Corporation, a professional and primary provider of Industrial Networking and communication solutions, is pleased to announce WUE-567 Industrial IP-67 Ethernet switch ideal for use in harsh or outdoor environments, such in the transportation and factory automation industries. The Whale series WUE-567 is a highly reliable and fault-tolerant Industrial 5-port Unmanaged IP-67 Switch. It has 5 10/100TX RJ45 ports that support IEEE 802.3/802.3u/802.3x with 10/100M, full/half duplex, and MDI/MDI-X auto-sensing. WUE-567 Ethernet Switches are designed for to be resistant against dust, dirt, humidity, water, vibration, and shock.

WUE-567 comes with IP-67 connectors; it guarantees a total protection that can withstand a variety of extreme conditions such as high temperature, extreme shock, vibration, dust particles, oil or even liquid immersion. WUE-567 is designed for the toughest applications and can be mounted directly to any machine or convenient flat surface. With high performance design of 1.4 Gbps bandwidth, WUE-567 can simultaneously handle full wire speed communication on each port. A dedicated uplink port enables a connection to other switches without use of a crossover cable. No programming is necessary, as the switch auto-learns network addresses. The reliable power design of 10 to 30 VDC isolated power input keeps spikes and surges on the power line from damaging the power supply. The WUE-567 is a plug-and-play solution for your Industrial Ethernet applications.
