Select the Control Method for Model 7340 RJ45 CAT5e On-Line/Off-Line Switch

For Immediate Release

Electro Standards Laboratories (ESL), Cranston, RI, has just announced its new Model 7340 RJ45 CAT 5e On-Line/Off-Line Switch Series. Connect two separate devices through ports A and B via On-Line or Off-Line connection. The On-Line switch position connects port A to port B. The Off-Line switch position disconnects and isolates port A from port B.

Select one of three methods to control and monitor the Model 7340 switches.

• Model 7340 remote port accepts dry contact open/close logic to control the switch position.
• Model 7340A remote port accepts dry contact open/close logic to control the switch position, but also provides a set of contacts for switch position feedback.
• Model 7340B remote control accepts RS-232 Serial ASCII commands to control the switch position.

These switches feature switch ports that are transparent to all data. The front panel pushbutton control can be locked out remotely. The units maintain the last set position in the event of a power loss and continue to pass data. Front-panel LEDs display the current switch position and the switch power status.
