MetaLIGHT 640Ex Series

Hybrid Fiber-Copper Managed Networking Solution
Compact, Hardened 6-Port Layer 2 Ethernet Switch

6-Port Gigabit Industrial Managed Temperature Hardened Layer 2 Ethernet Switch

6 port managed switch Layer 2

High Performance Broadband Over Copper or Fiber

The ML640E enables and extends high speed connectivity with immediate deployment in just an hour and allows for complete utilization of the existing network infrastructure.

The ML640Ex delivers high speed performance over 4, 8, or 16 copper pairs, getting the most out of your existing infrastructure by delivering up to 240 Mbps over 16 bonded copper pairs. The ML640Ex also features 2 fiber interfaces for added flexibility and performance.

The ML640E Ethernet Access Device can be deployed back-to-back, in a Point-to-Point topology or in Multi-Point topologies with Actelis’ ML2300/ ML230 Ethernet aggregation switches.
