OVERVIEW

The MAGBES family consists of 6 different manageable Gigabit Ethernet Switch models. The boards are PC/104 sized and offered as stand-alone, PC/104 stacked and special PIP built-in mechanical versions. They are available with different port configurations, either with 5 copper ports, or with 3 copper and 2 SFP optical transceiver ports.

Small form-factor pluggable (SFP) transceivers are available with a variety of different transmitter and receiver types. It allows the users to select the appropriate transceiver for each link to provide the required fiber optical interface.

As a managed switch the product gives access to various switch settings to configure features like: Quality of Service, VLAN, Rapid Spanning Tree, etc.. To adjust these switch settings, MPL provides a easy to use web interface.
