AL600 • Single Pair Ethernet Switch • 7 x 100BASE-T1 • 1 x 1000BASE-T
DIN-Rail Bracket or Wall Mount Plate


The AL600 is a Single Pair Ethernet (SPE) switch designed for rugged industrial applications. The box is provided with seven 100BASE-T1 (IEEE 802.3bw) ports and in addition a 1000BASE-T uplink. The SPE connectors conform to the IEC 63171-6 industrial style mating face. The AL600 is available for DIN rail or wall mount. The M12-A power input accepts 9-57VDC. As an option the box can be equipped with a terminal block power connector.

The AL600 is equipped with the Marvell® 88Q5072 Automotive Ethernet switch and is configured by default for self-managed operation. Its PHYs are fully inter-operable with the Open Alliance BroadR-Reach® (OABR) standard for automotive connectivity. As AL610, the switch box is also available with a mezzanine CPU card (AC370) for additional protocol support and wireless communication.
