Summary

April 11,-2007 - To ensure the networking devices operating in harsh environment successfully, Korenix JetNet 5010G/3010G/4508 industrial Ethernet switches and JetCon 1301 industrial media converters have passed the following life vibration and life shock tests.IEC 61000-2-6 life vibration tests
  • 5~100Hz/Amplitude 1mm, 0.7g /90Min. X.Y.Z. 6 axis
  • 3~50Hz/Amplitude 3.5mm,1g/90Min. X.Y.Z. 6 axis
  • IEC 61000-2-27 life shock test
  • 50G, 11ms duration, X,Y,Z, 3 shock/axes ( Total 18 shocks)It is also quite important and necessity to build a reliable Ethernet connection with enhanced isolation safety protection in factory. JetNet 5010G/3010G/4508/2005 and JetCon 1301 series provide High 1200 VAC Port to Port Isolation Protection (e.g. Ethernet port to Ethernet port, Ethernet port to power input, Ethernet port to chassis, Power Input to chassis) to protect the operator from electrical shock. HiPOT (High Potential) is a term given to a class of electrical safety testing instruments used to verify electrical insulation in finished appliances, cables or other wired assemblies. The Korenix networking devices have designed in the port isolation grounding, shield insulation and kept sustainable isolation gap between earth ground and digital ground to withstand the HiPOT 1200 VAC level test. It provides an enhancement safety to operators in installation, regular maintenance or trouble shooting service. Under normal conditions, any electrical device will produce a minimal amount of leakage current due to the voltages and internal capacitance present within the product. Due to design defects or other factors, the insulation in a product can break down, resulting in excessive leakage current flow. This failure condition can cause shock or damage to anyone that comes into contact with the faulty product. A HiPOT test (also called a Dielectric Withstand test) verifies that the insulation of a product or component is sufficient enough to protect the operator from electrical shock. In a HiPOT test, high voltage is applied between a product's current-carrying conductors and its metallic chassis. The resulting current that flows through the insulation, known as leakage current, is monitored by the tester.About Korenix TechnologyKorenix Technology is committed in design and manufacturing industrial communications products, which can be used in various markets that requires high stability or for industrial field environments, such as POS, banking, telecom, transportation, industrial automation, energy, power, military, and medical fields.Korenix has 4 major product lines: JetNet Series Industrial Managed and Unmanaged Redundant Ethernet Rail Switch, JetCon Series Industrial Serial/Ethernet/Fiber Media Converter, JetCard Series Multiport Serial Card, and JetPort Series RS-232/422/485 3-in-1 Device Server.
