Red Lion Launches N-Tron NT116: Unmatched Performance and Reliability in Rugged Industrial Environments

Red Lion introduces the N-Tron NT116, a 16-port industrial Ethernet switch designed for tough conditions. This switch offers exceptional performance and dependability in rugged industrial settings.

Red Lion, a company that creates new technologies to help industrial businesses access, connect, and view their data, is excited to introduce the N-Tron NT116 unmanaged industrial Ethernet switch. This switch is specifically made for industrial uses that require reliable performance for important tasks in tough environments.

The NT116 unmanaged switch is designed to provide reliable and high-performing support for tasks such as data acquisition, Ethernet I/O, and process control. It is small in size and features 16 copper ports with high performance capabilities. The switch is housed in a durable metal enclosure suitable for industrial environments. It is built to withstand shock and vibration, and all ports come with ESD and surge protection. Users can expect exceptional reliability with a 1.2 million hour MTBF rating, all within a compact design that can operate in extreme temperatures ranging from -40°C to 85°C.

The NT116 provides strong network support by allowing for seamless communication at speeds of up to 3.2 Gb/s. It utilizes store-and-forward technology and is capable of operating in both full and half duplex modes. It has two 10-49 VDC power inputs for added reliability.

The N-Tron NT116 is an upgraded version of Red Lion's 116TX unmanaged industrial ethernet switch. It is compliant with IEEE 802.3 standards and has certifications for use in marine, railway, and rolling stock environments. The switch also has UL certifications for both Ordinary and Hazardous locations, as well as ATEX and IECEx certifications.

The N-Tron NT116 by Red Lion simplifies the collection of important performance data. Its tough and resilient design ensures it can handle the harsh conditions typically seen in factory floor control networks, as well as in industries such as oil and gas, utilities, wastewater treatment, alternative energy, rail, intelligent traffic control, and transportation.

Diane Davis, a Product Manager, stated that when industrial equipment operators and business leaders can easily and quickly access their data, they can benefit more from it. The N-Tron NT116 unmanaged industrial ethernet switch is designed to reduce downtime and increase data transfer speeds, ultimately enhancing efficiency and operational performance.
