Black Box Industrial Ethernet Switch - Extreme Temperature, 6-Port

The Black Box LGH1006A Industrial Ethernet Switch offers a reliable and scalable solution for demanding network environments. Designed to operate effectively in harsh indoor conditions, this heavy-duty switch features an IP31-rated metal enclosure capable of withstanding extreme temperatures from -40°F to +167°F (-40°C to +75°C). Its rugged construction ensures durability against dust, dirt, moisture, smoke, and insects, making it ideal for factory floors, oil and gas fields, military vehicles, and ships. Equipped with four 10/100/1000 Mbps RJ-45 ports and two 100/1000Base-X SFP slots, it provides flexible connectivity options for fiber or copper uplinks over extended distances of up to 18 miles, depending on the SFP used. The switch supports multimode or single-mode fiber, enhancing network reach and scalability. Dual DC power inputs offer redundancy, ensuring continuous operation even if one power source fails, complemented by a built-in smart alarm that alerts users to power failures. Its plug-and-play design includes autosensing ports with Auto MDI/MDI-X and LED indicators for power, alarm, speed, and link/activity status, simplifying installation and management. This device is suitable for a wide range of applications, including security and surveillance, factory automation, building automation, utilities management, and military operations, providing a dependable backbone in rugged environments. It does not include a power supply but is compatible with models like MDR-40-12, MDR-40-24, SDR-120-48, or SDR-240-48. With a five-year limited warranty and TAA compliance, the LGH1006A is a robust and environmentally friendly choice for industrial network deployments.
