This Lite Managed switch transmits data over a Gigabit Ethernet network. Sixteen auto-negotiating 10/100/1000 Mbps ports send data via Cat5e/6/6a cable only to the devices designated to receive it, which improves the efficiency and potential throughput of the network. LEDs indicate when the switch is powered on and which Ethernet ports are showing activity.The hardened NGI-S16 adds 10/100/1000 Mbps Gigabit Ethernet capacity to industrial automation, security, government, military, oil and gas, mining and outdoor applications that demand high bandwidth convergence, as well as other environments with space constraints and wide temperature ranges. The IP30 industrial-grade aluminum case withstands vibration, shock and free fall. It can also operate in extreme temperatures ranging from -10 to 60 degrees Celsius (-14 to 140 degrees Fahrenheit).The Lite Managed switch's user-friendly cloud-based Lamungan platform helps you manage your network via web interface or mobile app. Three different features help you monitor connected devices, real-time traffic and link information. The Wizard is a set-up assistant that guides you step-by-step through initial management. The Topology Map with visual connectivity diagram displays network infrastructure and highlights link status. The Dashboard provides important performance and traffic-related information. A tri-color scheme - red (critical), yellow (alert), green (normal) - keeps you up to date on any network irregularities.The NGI-S16 supports MAC address auto-learning and auto-aging for efficient routing, as well as automatic MDI/MDI-X crossover detection for plug-and-play functionality. It also supports QoS, IGMP snooping and other device management features that fulfill the needs of high-performance managed industrial networks. IEEE 802.3x flow control allows smooth transmission of large files.The switch may be DIN mounted using the pre-installed rail clip, which mounts firmly to any standard 35 mm DIN rail. Providing seamless operation in the event of power dips or failures, the switch features redundant 6-pin 12-60VDC terminal block power inputs to help prevent unnecessary downtime. When used with two power sources, the switch also supports alarm relay contacts that you can wire to your existing alarm circuit to notify you instantly when a power disruption occurs.The NGI-S16 is compliant with the Federal Trade Agreements Act (TAA), which makes it eligible for GSA (General Services Administration) Schedule and other federal procurement contracts.
