Made for extreme demands: With the KGS-1260, CTI presents an industrial switch with four dual fiber-optic ports (100/1000 Mbit). Redundant ring structures for the highest fail-safety are no problem thanks to individual configuration. The ability to connect two redundant power sources also minimizes the risk of failure â without the need for additional, expensive equipment. The KGS-1260 has been successfully tested for shock and vibration (30G). The device is used where vibrations, centrifugal forces, collisions or large accelerations are important. The automatic laser shutdown prevents eye injuries at the fiber-optic port and also provides safety when used in hazardous areas. Another safety feature is the protection against polarity reversal that prevents an incorrect connection of the DC power supply. The relay output enables the output of alarm signals to external end devices (alarm system etc.). With a supply range of 12-60 volt it can be used very flexibly with respect to the input voltage.This text is machine translated.
