CLASS 5100 – RUGGED ETHERNET SWITCHES

5100 SeriesThe Class 5100 contains a portfolio of standard COTS, rugged Ethernet Switches suitable for harsh environments. For ease of use, integration and training, Nova Integration Solutions selects proven and well documented Small-to-Medium Business (SMB) and Enterprise class switches from manufacturers such as Netgear, Ubiquiti and Cisco and integrates these devices into sealed military grade enclosures. Prior to integration, the COTS switches are subjected to  a proprietary ruggedization process making the equipment more resilient.

All enclosures are conduction cooled, sealed, and are available in table top, rack mounting or shock tray mount configurations. Internal components are all military grade including Teflon wires, shielded cables, military circular connectors, MIL-STD-461 compliant EMI filter and power system.

5140-rearAll devices support highly rugged and MIL-spec applications utilized by the defense/aerospace markets as well as high reliability industrial such as railway and utilities. Heaters are available for applications where operation in freezing temperatures is a requirement.

If your preferred device is not shown please contact factory for a semi-custom design based on our proven reference designs.
