important data to the central office data warehouses) very securely and reliably. The DIN-
Rail Mounting options on the Multilink ML810 allow the factory floor’s industrial user to
mount the ML810 securely anywhere on their Network setup.
The option of setting the ports at 10 or 100Mb on copper and 100Mb on fiber media
provide widespread options to the users to mix and match their legacy and advance
network needs. The modularity of the ML810 Managed Edge Switches make them an
attractive choice for use in applications with LAN connections to an organization’s multiple
site offices and factory- floors. The different locations can be easily connected together
with the Fiber ports supported by the Multilink ML810 Switch. A main NT-server in a secure
area protected from earthquake or fire hazards can be connected to the full duplex Gigabit
Fiber port.
Extended temperature ratings and a variety of options for AC/DC power supplies qualify
this managed ML810 switch for use in non-temperature controlled networks and many
other temperature sensitive critical Industrial applications where above normal room
temperatures occur while the network is in operation. Full-duplex future proof fiber media
can easily connect long distance subnets and provide a stable secure network to all
applications. The SNMP management capability of the Multilink ML810 Switch helps create
a database of all the network subnets to easily manage the network.
Example 2 : A managed network is needed to provide a redundant ring topology for
maximum redundancy. In a network where any faulty cable, cable disconnection or power
failure can bring the whole thing down, a ring switch can be reconfigured and up and
running in milliseconds. The ring topology of the network consists of high speed LAN
segments supported by 100Mbps full-duplex future-proof fiber media to provide a secure
long distance LAN connection. The entire network is sharing a higher bandwidth Gigabit-
enabled data-mining server for the vital database located in a separate secured building.
The copper ports are required for multiple subnets inside the power plant to check the
status of other Ethernet units. The entire spread network will be manageable to provide
easy, detectable, uninterrupted support through a viewable SNMP monitor.

The Multilink ML810 Managed Edge Switch equipped with a mix of copper and fiber ports
provides an economical and seamless solution to many requirements. The user-
configurable Multilink ML810 provides an extra boost to the network requirements by
providing copper/fiber media along with the higher bandwidth support of 10/100 and
1000Mb. The user can utilize the SNMP feature equipped with VLAN, RMON, STP and other
standard managed LAN features to provide a secure and stable network.
The ML810 Managed Fiber with S-ring and Link-Loss-Learn features easily fulfill the
redundant requirement with a secure and fast reconfiguration time for cable breakup
when set up in a ring topology. The Gigabit port option boosts the bandwidth for high
speed to support the peak traffic and minimize congestion.
