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.
