The SF Series is a line of intelligent 8-port Fast Ethernet switches that provides three types of front connections (RJ45, M12 and D-Sub) and a rugged design for use in harsh environments.
Consuming less than 7W per switch and packaged in a fanless housing, the SF Series of Ethernet switches are designed to offer ruggedness, low power and flexibility. Available in both managed and unmanaged versions, all switches support full-duplex and half-duplex operation, high-speed non-blocking, store-and-forward switching and auto-negotiation as well as Layer-2 switching. They are fault tolerant and restore themselves on their own: if a link is temporarily unavailable, the switches will work again after the disturbance without any restart or reset.
