Remote Access Switch (Ethernet Modem)

PRODUCT DATASHEET
SLX-5MS-MDM
REMOTE ACCESS SWITCH (ETHERNET MODEM)
The SLX-5MS-MDM is a Remote Access Switch (Ethernet
Land-Line Modem) that combines an industrial telephone
modem with a 5 port industrial Ethernet managed switch. This
powerful combination allows you to easily and securely access
your Ethernet network from any remote location over standard
telephone lines. Avoid those costly site visits. Save time and
money!
