DeltaV Fiber Switches

Specifications

The DeltaV system supports the Single Port Fiber Switch and the Four Port Fiber Switch. The Single Port Fiber Switch is an Ethernet switch with one 100BASE-FX port and four 10/100BASE-TX ports. The Four Port Fiber Switch is an Ethernet switch with four 100BASE-FX ports and one 10/100BASE-TX port. The switches can be mounted on a DIN rail and provide comprehensive LED diagnostics. The switches can be installed in Zone 2 and provide connection to Zone 1 components over the certified energy-limited fiber port. Primarily the switches are the fiber port connection to the Zone 1 components; however, they can be used for all Control Network applications. Refer to the Installing Your DeltaV Zone 1 Intrinsically Safe Hardware manual in Books Online for information on connecting to the DeltaV Intrinsically Safe system.
