Ethernet Switches
Robust, Compact Ethernet Switches for Mobile and Industrial Networks
The Switches Series is designed to make networking in harsh environments simple, reliable, and efficient. Whether in mobile machinery, industrial automation, rail transport, or construction vehicles, these unmanaged Ethernet switches offer seamless data connectivity with plug-and-play simplicity.
Each model in the series is built with a rugged, compact housing rated to IP65/IP67, making them suitable for direct field installation without the need for a control cabinet. With a wide temperature range from –40°C to +70°C, these switches are engineered to withstand extreme environmental conditions, shock, and vibration. Their M12 connectors ensure secure and reliable connections in demanding mobile and stationary applications.
Ideal for quick integration, the ArkSwitch units support Autonegotiation, Auto MDI-X, and provide excellent EMC performance compliant with DIN EN 50121-3-2 and fire protection per DIN EN 45545—making them particularly suitable for railway and transportation applications.
