Red Lion Unveils N-Tron NT116: High-Performance Industrial Ethernet Switch for Harsh Environments

Red Lion has introduced the N-Tron NT116, a 16-port industrial Ethernet switch designed for tough working conditions. This switch offers superior performance and dependability in demanding industrial settings.

Red Lion, a company that creates advanced technologies to help industrial organizations access, connect, and display their data, has introduced the N-Tron NT116 unmanaged industrial Ethernet switch. This switch is specifically designed for industrial settings that require reliable performance for crucial tasks in tough environments.

The NT116 unmanaged switch is a reliable and high-performing device used for data acquisition, Ethernet I/O, and process control. It is small in size and has 16 copper ports with high performance (10/100BaseTX RJ45), all housed in a durable industrial metal casing. The NT116 is resistant to shocks and vibrations, and all ports have protection against ESD and surges. It has an impressive 1.2M hour MTBF rating, and its slim design saves space while operating in temperatures ranging from -40°C to 85°C.

The NT116 offers strong network support with the ability to handle communications at speeds of up to 3.2 Gb/s. It utilizes store-and-forward technology and can operate in both full and half duplex modes. The unit includes two power inputs ranging from 10-49 VDC for backup power.

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

The N-Tron NT116 from Red Lion simplifies the process of collecting important performance data. With its tough and durable design, it can handle the harsh conditions typically found in factory control networks, as well as in industries like oil and gas, utilities, wastewater treatment, alternative energy, rail, traffic control, and transportation.

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