*100Mbps supported with 100M SGMII SFP Transceivers

The RuggedNet GPoE+/Si is a unmanaged Industrial PoE and PoE+ Ethernet switch that features fiber or copper uplink ports and four or eight 10/100/1000 PoE/PoE+ RJ-45 copper user ports.

The RuggedNet GPoE+/Si is a standard Layer 2 Ethernet switch that forwards frames to any port based on their MAC address.

The RuggedNet GPoE+/Si supports Directed Switch mode, which directs multicast traffic (such as video) only to the appropriate uplink port, preventing the multicast video traffic from flooding other network ports.

Models with two fiber or two copper uplink ports support daisy-chain configurations or redundant uplinks for critical applications that require protection and sub 50ms restoration in the event of an uplink failure.

Models with two fiber or two copper uplink ports also support Dual Device mode that enables the GPoE+/Si to operate as two independent and isolated Ethernet switches. In Dual Device mode, the GPoE+/Si provides separate and independent data traffic paths between the two uplink ports and four or eight user ports.

The RuggedNet GPoE+/Si modes of operation can be configured using easily accessible DIP-switches. Each DIP-switch function is labeled on the top of the RuggedNet for ease of identification and use.

The RuggedNet GPoE+/Si is available with fixed ST, SC, and LC connectors or Small Form Pluggable (SFP) transceivers. Fiber ports support multimode or single-mode and dual fiber or single-fiber with distances up to 140km. SFP models support a variety of distances in standard, CWDM and DWDM wavelengths.

The switches feature a PoE power reset function that enables the attached PD device, such as a camera or access point, to be re-initialized remotely, eliminating the need for costly truck rolls to remote PD sites. When a problem with a PD is detected, the fiber port on the module can be disconnected, triggering the PoE power reset function.

All models can be wall or rack mounted using a wall mount bracket and shelf or DIN-rail mounted using the included DIN-rail mounting clip. They are available with single or dual DC input power options.

Daisy Chain Application

This example demonstrates the daisy chain capabilities of the RuggedNet PoE switches. In this application each RuggedNet switch connects to its neighboring switch via its uplink ports. The daisy chain can continue to additional switches using this method of connectivity.

Each RuggedNet switch provides connectivity to the fiber links, and power to IP cameras and Wi-Fi access points at each location along the daisy chain.

Dual Device Mode

This Dual Device feature is extremely useful when two isolated networks domains share a single network distribution location.

The example below depicts a scenario where a surveillance security (purple) network and a Wi-Fi (green) network are sharing a single hub distribution location. Using the two uplinks and the Dual Switch mode facilitates using a single PoE switch driving both the Cameras and the Wi-Fi Access Points while maintaining isolation between the networks.
