Separator Dimecon-ETH

Separator Dimecon-ETH

The dimecon series devices allow communication with and operating devices placed in hazardous areas via Ethernet network. Isolating repeater dimecon-ETH serves to connecting non-hazardous areas cable networks 10/100Base-TX with intrinsically safe 10/100Base-TX netoworks placed in hazardous areas of flammable gas or dust (Ex i). The standard 8P8C (RJ45) socket was used to allow connection of the Ethernet wired network.

The devices were engineered and manufactured to meet the growing requirements regarding reliability of connections and bandwidth in wide network systems, also in hazardous areas.
