SlimLine Plus Unmanaged Industrial Connectivity
SLX Industrial Ethernet Switch
The SLX line of unmanaged industrial Ethernet switches are designed to meet performance
requirements that extreme applications demand. Available in 5, 6, 8 or 9 port options, our unmanaged SLX
switches offer protected circuitry and tough DIN-rail metal packaging to ensure rugged reliability and
long-term service in harsh environments. With over 1,000,000 hours MTBF, industrial networks will stay up
and running for many years to come.
