5 Port Industrial Ethernet Managed Switch with Integrated Modem

SLX-5MS-MDM

The SLX-5MS-MDM is a Remote Access Switch (Ethernet Land-Line Modem) that combines an Industrial Telephone Modem with a 5 port industrial Ethernet managed switch. This powerful combination allows you to easily and securely access your Ethernet network from any remote location over standard telephone lines. The SL-5MS was designed to be rugged, reliable and secure. The ruggedness comes from its wide operating temperature range, industrial ratings (UL, CE, marine, hazloc, etc.) plus Sixnet’s 25+ years of expertise in designing truly industrial rated products. The reliability is field proven with over 1,000,000 service-free hours (MTBF) based on real-world data of thousands of switches currently in the field.

 

The real-time operation is possible due to Sixnet’s open Linux software that supports advanced networking functions such as SNMP, RSTP, QoS, VLAN, IGMP and much more. Plus there is real security using HTTPS, SSH, SNMPv3, password protection and authentication.
