Key benefits

Enable reliable control in harsh conditions

Substation‑hardened design resists EMI, vibration and extreme temperatures to keep Layer 2 traffic error free for mission‑critical automation.

Simplify integration across OT cabinets

Compact form factor, DIN‑rail mounting, universal AC/DC power and long‑haul fiber options fit tight spaces and complex topologies without redesign.

Strengthen security at the network edge

ROS features add multi‑level passwords, SSH/SSL, VLAN segmentation, RADIUS and SNMPv3 to harden access and isolate traffic from non‑critical devices.
