Antaira LNX-800AG 8-Port Gigabit Unmanaged Industrial Ethernet Switches with Extended Temperature Options

Gigabit devices such as vision cameras, data loggers and modern controllers can saturate a Fast Ethernet switch, and in a busy cabinet that shows up as dropped frames and slow screens. The Antaira LNX-800AG series gives each device a full gigabit link: 8-port gigabit unmanaged industrial Ethernet switches on a DIN rail, which Antaira positions for applications that demand high-bandwidth connectivity.

Every LNX-800AG shares the same design. Eight 10/100/1000Base-T RJ45 ports auto-negotiate speed and duplex and support auto MDI/MDI-X. Store-and-forward switching runs on a 16 Gbps fabric, enough for all eight ports at full speed, with an 8K MAC address table, a 4 Mbit buffer, 9.6 KB jumbo frames and IEEE 802.3x flow control. Redundant 12 to 48 V DC inputs connect through a removable 6-contact terminal block with reverse polarity and overload protection, each switch draws 9.2 W, and a relay output rated 24 V DC at 1 A warns of a power failure. Mixed cabinets are handled too: each port auto-negotiates down to 10 or 100 Mbps, so an older drive or panel can sit beside a new gigabit camera, and with no management interface a spare can replace a failed unit with no reconfiguration.

The series has two temperature grades. The LNX-800AG is the standard build, rated -10 °C to 70 °C for indoor control cabinets. The LNX-800AG-T is the extended temperature build, rated -40 °C to 75 °C for harsh outdoor weather and unheated enclosures. For Fast Ethernet devices the LNX-800A series is the eight-port equivalent, and the LNX-C800G series offers eight gigabit ports in a smaller case.

Both models use an IP30 metal case that mounts on a DIN rail or a wall, rated to IEC 60068-2-27 shock and IEC 60068-2-6 vibration, with high EFT and ESD protection. Antaira lists UL Class 1 Division 2 and UL 61010-1 among the LNX-800AG series certifications, with FCC, CE and RoHS, and covers the switches with its 5-year warranty. For cabinets where eight gigabit links, redundant DC power and a power-fail alarm matter more than management features, these unmanaged industrial Ethernet switches are a straightforward choice, and the extended temperature build carries the same design outdoors.
