12-port GbE Managed PoE Switch



Along with the complete commercial product portfolio that offers customers with total network solutions, Zyxel introduces the new RGS Series of PoE switches with ruggedized design concepts to meet stringent outdoor or harsh network deployment scenarios. The special mechanism enables RGS200-12P to operate in outdoor, factory or other harsh environments for surveillance. In addition, it is also easy to manage RGS200-12P through a user-friendly Webbased GUI.



Benefits



Rugged and reliable design for harsh environments

Equipped with fanless and IP30 standard metal mechanism, the Zyxel RGS200-12P is able to deliver great thermal control and tolerate the dustiest deployments with ease, whether installed on a DIN rail or wall mounted for the most efficient use of cabinet space. Designed to handle temperatures ranging from -40°C to 75°C, the RGS200-12P can be placed in a variety of challenging environments and be adapted to broad range of field applications. When switching is applied normally in outdoor settings, ESD (electrostatic discharge), DC and Ethernet surge protection prevent the loss of business revenue and productivity due to damage or fatigue caused by power disturbances.



Quick failover for stable connectivity

When deployed in harsher conditions, such as factory or outdoor settings, the Zyxel RGS200-12P creates fault-tolerant networks with redundant ring technology and rapid self-recovery capability to prevent interruptions. In the event of downtime caused by a network error, the rapid failover will restore normal operation in less than 20 ms. The switch’s dual DC power inputs and reverse power protection feature ensure continuous uptime and reliable operation.



Trouble-free installation and easy extendibility

This rugged L2 Managed PoE switch comes with eight (8) 10/100/1000 Base-T copper PoE ports and four (4) 100/1000-Base-X SFP fiber interfaces. The switch also supports the 802.3at PoE plus standard, with each PoE port providing up to 30 W of power to efficiently accommodate the most power-hungry devices. The fiber uplink can extend the network to long-distance nodes up to 40 km (43,744 yards) away for added flexibility.
