Comnet Hardened 4 FX SFP Ports 1000Mbps + 24 TX Port 1000Mbps Managed Switch - CNGE28FX4TX24MS2

Comnet CNGE28FX4TX24MS2 Hardened Managed Network Switch

Overview

The Comnet CNGE28FX4TX24MS2 is a 28-port managed switch combining 4 SFP Gigabit combo ports with 24 Gigabit Ethernet TX ports — built for surveillance networks and IP security deployments operating in harsh environments. At 56 Gbps switching fabric and 7 μs latency, it handles real-time video streams without packet loss or jitter. IP30 metal enclosure, wide operating temperature (-40 to +75°C), and compliance with railway and industrial EMI standards make this a fit for outdoor cabinets, rooftop equipment rooms, and remote sites where commercial-grade switches fail.

Compatibility

Works with any Gigabit PoE switch, NVR, or IP camera ecosystem requiring deterministic Layer 2 switching. Supports SNMP, web console, and Telnet management — integrates into AXIS Camera Station, Milestone, and third-party VMS platforms via standard ONVIF camera feeds. x-Ring topology provides sub-50ms failover without manual intervention; STP/RSTP/MSTP compatibility fits existing network architectures. Port mirroring and RMON diagnostics enable traffic capture for forensic review or VMS troubleshooting.

Installation Notes

Requires external 24–48 VDC power supply (not included); maximum consumption 12 W keeps power budgets modest on remote installations. Mount in 19-inch racks using standard brackets. Operating humidity range 10–95% non-condensing; use sealed enclosures in high-moisture environments. Surge compliance (EN61000-4-5) and ESD protection (EN61000-4-2) handle lightning-strike transients common in outdoor networks. MTBF exceeds 100,000 hours; shock and vibration ratings (IEC60068-2-27, IEC60068-2-6) confirm industrial ruggedization.
