Applications

The TC3715 10/100 Ethernet Switch is a low cost and flexible bandwidth solution to efficiently handle the heavy traffic of local workgroups - reducing the need of expensive routers that usually cater to the network backbone.

Description                                        

Featuring distances up to 80km, the TC3715 10/100Base-T Industrial Ethernet Fiber Optic Switch provides a 100Base-FX port that combines Ethernet Switching and Fiber Optic technology to boost total network bandwidth.

The TC3715 offers one or two multimode (1300nm) or single mode (1300/1550nm) optical ports and six Ethernet 10/100Base-T Auto-Sensing switched ports. Each of these ports supports either 10Base-T or 100Base-T. A two-way "one fiber" single mode version is available. There are two optional versions (Model TC3715Q/Y) for extreme temperature applications (-20C to 70C, -40C to 80C).

Because it functions like an Ethernet bridge (connects multiple Ethernet segments to prevent unnecessary network traffic), it creates an efficient sub-divided switched LAN that provides full and transparent bandwidth for each segment.

The TC3715's modern switching technology eliminates the congestion problem inherent to the contention-oriented Ethernet CSMA/CD protocol. This improves predictable response times under heavy network loads. Previously, expensive routing technology was used to alleviate congestion from heavy traffic loads.

Power is 12VDC, optional 24Vdc, -48Vdc, 125Vdc, or 115/230VAC with an external power cube. Units are 19" rack mountable. Optical connectors can be SC, ST or FC.
