Gigabit Managed Traffic/ITS Ethernet Switch
Overview
The SICOM3170 Traffic/ITS Ethernet switch packs a powerful set of features into an industry-standard 4-channel vehicle detector form factor. This “Green Ethernet” switch uses an astonishingly low eight watts or less, allowing it to be hot-plugged into any CalTrans input file (or NEMA TS 1/TS 2 detector rack) for rapid and reliable field deployment.
Quick installation in the input file/detector rack eliminates the unreliability of external power supplies, the problem of finding filtered AC power within the cabinet, and the difficulty of a clean physical installation in today’s crowded traffic cabinets.
As the premier unit in the Traffic/ITS line of products, the fully
managed SICOM3170 is perfect for the deployment of video
surveillance, controller communications, DMS signs, and other
Traffic/ITS applications.
Features
- 2 Gigabit SFP fiber Uplink ports, 1 RJ45 10/100/1000Mbps port, and 7 RJ45 10/100Mbps ports.
- Ultra low power consumption, the SICOM3170 uses less than
8 Watts of power under fully loaded conditions. - Supports IGMP Snooping, Port Mirroring, QoS, VLAN.
- Supports TACACS+, Radius, SSH/SSL and improves Network
Security functions. - Supports Rapid Spanning Tree (RSTP/STP IEEE802.1w/d) and
DT-Ring/DT-Ring+ (Self healing rings with a recovery time
of <50ms). - Supports Automatic Network Topology Discovery and Generation
with Kyvision3.0 centralized management. - Supports CLI, TELNET, WEB, SNMP v1/v2/v3 and OPC management control.
- SICOM series uniform Kyvision3.0 management software.
- Secure MAC and port binding function, supports static FDB.
- Port rate bandwidth limiting.
- Enhanced Broadcast Storm Control.
- EMC industrial level 4, able to work in harsh environments.
- Easy installation (slide it into the detector rack/input file chassis
and it immediately powers up). - Compatible with the interface requirements in the CalTrans TEES
(170/332) specification. - Aluminum case with fanless design (convection cooled).
- IP40 protection class.
