What Is N-Tron?
N-TRON ® manufactures a family of industrial hardened Level II Ethernet Switches designed specifically for industrial, marine, utility, and military users requiring high reliability, superior formance, and exceptional noise immunity in a hardened enclosure.
N-TRON Switches use store-and-forward architecture and are designed to operate in applications needing extended temperatures (ranging from -40°C to 85°C), high shock and vibration specifications, elevated RFI/EMI environments, and are UL Listed and TUV Certified and can be used in Class I, Division 2 Hazardous areas. Our products feature wide ranging (10 to 30 VDC) redundant power supply inputs, and can be DIN-Rail, panel, or rack mounted. N-TRON offers both IEEE 802.3 10/100BaseTX twisted pair copper and 100BaseFX fiber optic ports. Our multimode fiber models are capable of driving in excess of 2km of multimode fiber optic cable. The FXE models are able to extend distances ranging from 15km to 80km of singlemode fiber optic cable. For faster communications, the 1000 and 7000 Series offers up to two SFP Gigabit LC style transceivers and the 9000 Series offers an optional dual Gigabit LC style fiber interface.
N-TRON’s N-ViewTM OPC Server Software can be used with the N-TRON 200, 300, 400, 500, and 900, Series Switches with the N-View firmware option. N-View is also available as a standard feature on all 7000 and 9000 Series Switches. N-View OPC Software allows switch and port status information for all N-View capable switches, to be displayed using popular OPC client HMI Software Packages. N-View is currently available for the Windows NT, XP, 2000, and 2003 Server operating systems.
