Westermo Viper-3508-T8G Managed Ethernet Switch | Easy World Automation

Description

The Viper-3508 series is a managed backbone routing switch optimised for the needs of the railway rolling stock market. High-speed Gbps ports and full-speed routing capability cope with high bandwidth backbones consisting of ring and end devices.

The Viper-3508 series is designed to withstand the tough environment onboard trains, exposing the switch to constant vibration, extreme temperatures, humidity, and a demanding electrical environment.

A GORE-TEX® membrane prevents internal condensation. Threading integrated into the chassis provides for additional vibration resistance. High-level isolation between all interfaces enables direct connectivity to vehicle auxiliary power and protects against overvoltage and flashover. IP67 protection prevents ingress of water and dust. An overall optimised design results in an extremely compact package in combination with very high MTBF for easy integration and low lifecycle cost.

Thorough type testing at independent ISO/IEC 17025 and ILAC MRA-certified labs, accredited to a wide range of standards, show that the Viper-3508 series fulfills EN 50155 and other requirements. The state-of-the-art Westermo production facility ensures the quality of each individual unit, e.g., through temperature cycling burn-in testing.

The WeOS operating system offers an extensive suite of IP networking features for resilient and flexible networks, e.g., the FRNT ring protocol with very fast failover. The powerful layer 3 routing capability ensures communication between the backbone and consist networks. The backup device accessory matches the Viper in robustness and offers easy configuration updates and backup.

You can also find the Viper-3508-E-T8G, Viper-3508-E-T4G-T4-TBN, and Viper-3508-E-T8G-TBN models in the Managed Ethernet Switches.
