Waterproof Ethernet switches for railway applications

Published : 10/04/2022 10:00:00

Over the years, the application sector of railway networks has seen a notable evolution and the innovations introduced by ORing represent its more than positive trend. With the transporter series, communication solutions have been developed that can offer specific and professional products to companies involved in railway projects.

ORing has in fact added two models to its industrial Ethernet switches of the Transporter series, with design compliant with EN50155 certification for railway applications. These models, equipped with Gigabit ports for higher transmission speed, a waterproof enclosure and network redundancy capability, can provide high flexibility and excellent reliability.

The ORing switches TPS-W9124GT-M12X-BP2-24V-IP54 and TES-W9124GT-M12X-BP2-24V-IP54 they are both equipped with 12 Fast Ethernet and 4 Gigabit Ethernet ports. The Fast Ethernet ports of the TPS-W9124GT-M12X-BP2-24V-IP54 are PoE enabled to simplify wiring problems and reduce implementation costs as electrical power, up to 30 watts, can be transmitted to remote devices directly through the ethernet cable.

Thanks to the support of numerous protocols and network redundancy technologies, including O-Ring, O-Chain, MRP and MSTP/RSTP/STP, the industrial switches proposed by Digimax can protect the most critical applications from network interruptions or temporary malfunctions, ensuring a resumption of operations in real time and in automatic motion. Both of the products described are also equipped with two sets of bypass ports to prevent single points of failure caused by power problems.

The X-code M12 circular metric connectors adopted in these two switches not only ensure reliable connections , but also provide superior signal strength for high-speed Ethernet data transfers. high speed compared to traditional M12 connectors. With the ability to handle high-bandwidth files, X-code M12 connectors significantly reduce data bottlenecks and improve network performance. In addition, the switches feature an IP54 rated housing that offers protection against ingress of dust and splashing water from any direction. They can therefore also be installed outside trains where rain or airborne particles can damage the components inside the cabinet.

These devices represent the backbone of IoT systems and Industry 4.0, where continuous data acquisition and processing is required: industrial ethernet switches and routers allow you to achieve the most ambitious goals in the design of corporate networks and smart factory networks. Specific Industrial Networking solutions can be used for industrial automation in various sectors: corporate security and video surveillance of railway transport, marine industry, management of renewable energy, building automation and the oil & gas sector.

Digimax develops together with its partners industrial automation solutions through the most reliable and innovative technologies available on the market, through a careful pre-analysis of the requirements and a dedicated coaching for each individual project.
