Antaira Managed Switch Offers Maximum Flexibility in Industrial Network Design

­Antaira LMP-1204G-SFP-bt 12-port PoE Gigabit Ethernet managed switches are a strategic choice for industrial organizations needing robust, efficient, and flexible networking solutions.

By supplying up to 90W (PoE 802.3bt Type 4) from four of its ports, the LMP-1204G-SFP-bt can handle a broader range of Powered Devices than switches that only furnish PoE 802.3af/at 30W output. High-power industrial devices, such as PTZ cameras, LED lighting, Wireless APs, IoT sensors or controllers, and PLCs, benefit by receiving both power and data over a single Ethernet cable from the LMP-1204G-SFP-bt. Besides reducing cabling complexity and eliminating the need for additional power outlets, PoE 802.3bt lowers overall installation costs, especially in hard-to-reach or remote locations like warehouses, factories, or transportation systems.

SMART AND SCALABLE

Although it features a highly compact footprint, the LMP-1204G-SFP-bt supports multiple industrial devices via its four PoE 802.3bt (90W) Ethernet ports, four PoE 802.3at (30W) Ethernet ports, and four dual-rate SFP slots, facilitating centralized network management and communication in complex industrial setups. Industrial networks can be expanded easily by accommodating new devices and system upgrades without replacing the LMP-1204G-SFP-bt switch. Additionally, redundant network configurations are made possible by its high port count, guaranteeing uninterrupted operation in the event that one path fails.

FULLY MANAGEABLE

The LMP-1204G-SFP-bt-24 is a fully manageable Light Layer 3 Ethernet switch pre-loaded with a web management console design. It supports the ring network redundancy function using the open standard ITU-T G.8032 ERPS protocol boasting <50ms network recovery time. Advanced network filtering and security functions -- such as IGMP, VLAN, QoS, SNMP, RMON, Modbus TCP, and 802.1X/HTTPS/SSH/SSL -- increase determinism and improve network management for remote SCADA systems or control networks. 

RUGGED INDUSTRIAL DESIGN

Securely housed in an IP30-rated metal DIN-Rail mountable enclosure, the LMP-1204G-SFP-bt-24 safely operates in a temperature range of -10°C to 65°C. It also withstands a high degree of vibration, electrostatic noise, and shock common in industrial environments, plus is reverse polarity protected.
