B&B Electronics’ Industrial Hardened EIRM-EXTEND is a point-to-point Managed Ethernet Extender designed to operate in harsh environments. It efficiently extends 10/100 Ethernet circuits to over 300 meters (984 feet) at 50Mbps using existing cross-over pair copper wire.
The EIRM-EXTEND allows Ethernet connectivity in existing facilities over existing voice grade copper wire – no pulling extra cable. This is the perfect solution to Ethernet on the factory floor where systems have been upgraded from slower serial communications to Ethernet networking.
The EIRM-EXTEND is used in pairs. Installation is easy with a single switch setting; one end is set for local and the other remote. The EIRM-EXTEND also provides several advanced functions such as System, SNMP, F/W upgrade, and Load Default setting through the Web based browser to enhance total networking performance.
