300 Series Industrial Ethernet Switches
The 300 Series Unmanaged Industrial Ethernet Switches support high speed layer 2 switching between
ports. All N-TRON 300 Series switches are housed in a ruggedized steel enclosure, and provide Category-5
compliant 10/100-BaseT connections for high performance network design, and hub/repeater upgrades.
The 302MC/MCE is a 2 port unmanaged media converter that converts 10/100BaseTX copper to
100BaseFX full duplex fiber.
The 304TX, 306TX, and 308TX are affordable and share a small footprint. Each switch is capable of auto
negotiating 10/100 Mb and half/full duplex communications.
The 305FX and 306FX2 switches are unmanaged and have 4 ports similar to the 304TX, plus an additional
multimode fiber optic up-link port(s), capable of 2 Kilometers of 100 Mb communications without the use
of repeaters.
The 305FXE and 306FXE2 switches are unmanaged and similar to the 305FX and 306FX2, respectively.
However, these models use singlemode transceivers with extended range capability. The N-TRON FXE
products utilize singlemode fiber transceiver(s) that are capable of 15, 40, and up to 80 Kilometers of 100
Mb full duplex communications.
All fiber products utilize the IEEE compliant SC or ST duplex connectors for fiber optic communications.
All 10/100Base-TX ports utilize the RJ45 shielded connectors.
