ComNet has introduced a 26-port modular gigabit ethernet switch for commercial security applications.
The CWGE2FE24MODMS provides a high port count with flexibility in copper and fibre-optic media type. The device is a user-configurable chassis that accommodates three 8-port 100FX or 100TX modules.
It features two 1000FX or TX uplink ports for connecting to the network core. The modules are available with either eight electrical ports that support 10/100TX transmission or eight user-selectable SFP ports that support 100FX transmission.
This solution is designed for operation in environments typically encountered in commercial security.
The device offers IGMP snooping, STP and RSTP, port-based VLAN tagging, QoS and MAC Address Filtering.
Included X-Ring technology is claimed to provide a faster redundant recovery than STP. X-Ring provides a redundant network path in the case of a failure on the network.
