Product catalog summary
Overview
The Lynx series is a versatile range of Ethernet switches designed for optimal functionality in various applications, including challenging environments like mines and offshore installations. The series offers three function levels and four type approvals, ensuring reliability and value.
Reliability and Redundancy
With high MTBF figures, Lynx switches are suitable for extreme temperatures and vibrations. They feature FRNT technology for fast network reconfiguration, ideal for safety-critical applications such as tunnels and railway systems.
Electrical Interference and Bandwidth Efficiency
Designed for harsh environments, Lynx switches use fibre optic transceivers to manage electrical interference. They support IGMP snooping and VLAN for efficient bandwidth use, crucial for video streaming in surveillance applications.
Real-time Ethernet
Lynx switches ensure determinism in real-time applications through QoS with four priority queues and HoL blocking prevention, addressing Ethernet's non-deterministic nature.
IP Configuration Tool
A Windows-based tool simplifies switch configuration without a serial port, facilitating easy setup and management.
Network Management
SNMP and OPC protocols support network management, with the iSNMP Suite offering real-time network monitoring within HMI software.
Models and Approvals
The Lynx series includes various models, from unmanaged to managed switches with redundancy and VLAN support. They are approved for industrial, marine, and railway applications, with options for fibre or copper transceivers.
Specifications

IP Configuration Tool > Our Windows based IP Configuration Toolmakes configuration of the switches very easy. No serial port is required;just connect to any port on any switch in the network and scan for switches.All the switches will appear in the tool and it is then possible to configure each switch individually by selecting it from a table.This means that the switches can be mounted and installed in panels prior to configuration.

Real-Time Ethernet > Ethernet through its design is not deterministic,i.e.you cannot guarantee thetransfer time of a data packet from one occasion to another.A switched net- work is subject to delays,which can vary from 10s to several ms due to the load,speed of the drop link,packet size,switch architecture and the number of switches between the server and client.This previously made it impossible to use Ethernet for real time applications,such as monitoring transformer stations or controlling complex machinery. The features in the Lynx-series guarantee that these limitations no longer exist....

Some benefits using VLAN: Increased security options. Higher capacity. The administrator can easily prohibit unauthorized users gaining access to a certain VLAN.Ņ Physical topology independence. There might be users who often exchange a lot of data over the net- work.In order not to let these users generate too much traffic to the entire network,the administrator can confine these users in separate VLANs. Build the physical network,which then the administrator can divide into smaller networks depending on functionality/security.Ņ Improved manageability. No physical changes in the network are...

IGMP is a protocol used by IP hosts to dynamically registermembership in Multicast groups to theclosest multicast router.Multicast routersperiodically send out a Host MembershipQuery messageӔto remain updatedabout group membership for the localnetwork.In order to efficiently use the bandwidthand cut down the traffic,multicasting isthe ideal solution.When data needs to besent to a large amount of users on thenetwork,the data will be sent simultane-ously to the specified users via multicast-ing,and not to all users.In doing so,thebandwidth can be used more efficiently. > IGMP IGMP snooping requires...
