Sixnet announces the launch of the first industrial Ethernet switch that brings true enterprise-grade networking to harsh environments
Sixnet's EL228 enables a new generation of "smart" networking capabilities for power generation, power distribution, transportation and other demanding environments
Ballston Lake, New York, October 20, 2009
Sixnet, the global market leader in industrial and commercial M2M (machine-to-machine) networking solutions, today announced the company's new EL228 industrial Ethernet switch management platform. As the latest addition to Sixnet's entire series of industrial switches, the EL228 is the only product in a category that combines the reliability, redundancy, and ruggedness required by demanding industrial environments with true enterprise-class networking capabilities.
By providing a wide range of high-end enterprise-level networking capabilities, EL228 provides some of the functions needed to implement a new generation of "smart" applications in industries such as power and energy, transportation, and oil and gas. These functions are provided in a solid form, and even in extreme environments such as the US Navy ’s air traffic control in Antarctica and Oman ’s oil platform, these functions prove to be very reliable.
Hilton Nicholson, President and CEO of Sixnet, said: "In recent years, there has been a lot of hype around the Smart Grid and Intelligent Transport System (Intelligent TransportaTIon System), but in fact most of these systems are still subject to limited networking. Severe constraints on capabilities. EL228 is the first Ethernet switch platform that can provide the security, reliability, and extensive enterprise-level networking capabilities required by organizations in these markets. "
EL228 also achieves the lowest total cost of ownership among similar industrial Ethernet switches. This is achieved by providing 24 Fast Ethernet SFP ports that are fully field configurable. This allows customers to modify the configuration when networking requirements change, thus eliminating the need for the "forklift upgrade" that is required when using typical pre-configured industrial switches. In addition, because customers can dynamically configure the EL228's ports to match the configuration of any switch in their network, it can also significantly reduce the spare switch inventory required.
BCI Technologies is a provider of industrial communication and automation solutions to global companies and municipalities. Dr. Jay Park, Senior Product Manager, PowerRICHSystems, BCI Technologies, said: "The new Sixnet EL228 is the most flexible managed industrial switch I have ever seen. EL228 is at an excellent price to meet the needs of smart grid and various types of substation distribution The diverse needs of automation provide a single-mode solution. "
EL228 Features
EL228 is a 28-port (24 + 4G) industrial Ethernet managed switch that provides customers with excellent flexibility. Its 24 Fast Ethernet SFP ports can be used with any copper RJ45 or fiber transceiver combination. The EL228 is equipped with light emitting diodes (LEDs), power / ground connections, console ports, and bracket positioning on the front and back of the switch, thus enabling customers to install devices with front and back / reverse connections as needed.
Its rugged design and compliance with the IEC 61850 / IEEE1613 standard (coming soon to pass KEMA certification) make EL228 ideal for the extreme environments encountered in the power generation and distribution industry, transportation industry, and Internet Protocol (IP) -based video security. select. Support for these standards means that the EL228 is reliable enough to support any industrial application, as well as numerous enterprise-level features such as:
-Advanced network security-- Prevent unauthorized intrusion-- Quick backup-- Keep the network running even if there is a failure-- Real-time information transmission-- Ensure that important data arrives immediately-- Advanced multicast function-- Optimize network bandwidth-powerful management and monitoring functions-can easily deploy and troubleshoot
Sixnet's patent pending universal installation features and flexible ports allow customers to easily configure and deploy. The ability to add and configure fiber and copper ports at runtime provides an important level of convenience and can help reduce costs. Moreover, EL228's multiple mounting bracket positioning, removable power plug, light-emitting diodes and front and rear console ports make instant transmission and deployment very easy.

Currently, the outdoor media are mainly composed of text spraying and LED outdoor Advertising Screen. The outdoor advertising screen is also the most popular way of media, but it is regulated by the government, so the area and location must be approved. After the approval, the steel structure and screen body shall be customized according to the site conditions. So the main cost ways of Outdoor Led Display are: Led Display, steel structure, surrounding products and product electricity. Outdoor LED display as a commercial, investment and advertising is the main source of income. Of course, with the popularity of LED outdoor screens, more and more are used for lighting, store layout, and become a bright landscape in a modern metropolis.
LED outdoor advertising screen features:
1. Strong visual impact, dynamic picture and sound, all-round let the audience feel, effectively transmit advertising information to guide consumption. In the face of overwhelming advertising, memory limitations and unlimited information dissemination, the use of LED display has become a scarce resource.
2. According to the shape of the wall, it can be straight or curved. Shape diversity creates more personalization and strong visual impact.
3. The credibility of the audience is high. Compared with the rejection and distrust of the advertising flyers artificially distributed on the street, the application of LED display makes the audience more active and passive. It can avoid the help barriers caused by the conscious active avoidance of the advertising audience, and greatly improve the credibility and promotion of the Led Screen advertising content.
4. Accurate advertising, the original extensive advertising effect is not good, resulting in waste, so it is more product content to meet the needs of the masses, hot news, hot TV and movies can be used for reference, to control the market heat and laws freely.
Product structure: outdoor LED display mainly consists of screen body, control system, heat dissipation system and structure. The control mode includes remote control and field control, timing switch, etc.
