Harting M8 D-Code

HARTING is enabling miniaturization with the launch of two “Little Giants”, the ix Industrial® and M8 D-Code.  These two new products offer smaller alternatives to the RJ45 and M12 that permit the development of smaller devices.

The M8 D-Code offers Fast Ethernet and Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) via an individual miniaturized interface directly connected to the circuit board.  This results in big space savings for the end device.

Banner Engineering K50 Pro Touch Buttons

Banner Engineering's new K50 Pro touch buttons provide more flexibility with RGB technology and Pro Editor configuration capabilities. The easy-to-use Pro Editor software offers a wide variety of color and animation options, adding versatility to a wide range of applications.

FEATURES

• Flexibility with Pro Editor: Easily customize touch buttons with a wide variety of color and animation options. In addition, give your machine more flexibility with additional features like adjustable touch sensitivity, which allows users to optimize sensitivity levels to avoid false trips in washdown areas. 
• Reliable Operation in a Wide Variety of Environments: The rugged IP69K design means reliable actuation in a variety of conditions, including harsh environments. The touch buttons operate in wet or dry environments and with gloved or bare hands. Models made with FDA-approved materials are available for use in the food and beverage industries.
• Increase Production Efficiency: Thanks to a wide range of colors and animations, each change in status or step in a process can be assigned its own unique color or animation. This helps users learn and interpret signals quickly and make fewer errors, saving time and money.
• Streamline Your Supply Chain: K50 Pro touch buttons can be programmed in the field to meet the needs of any application. Users can standardize on the K50 Pro Series, reducing inventory requirements.

Red Lion NT24k DHCP Server & Port Security

Red Lion NT24k® DHCP Server & Port Security: Simplify Installation, Accelerate Recovery and Secure Network

DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)
 

DHCP simplifies network configuration by automatically assigning IP addresses from a DHCP server to connected DHCP-capable devices (clients).

NT24k® firmware version 2.1.5 offers the following DHCP configuration options:
•    DHCP Client with IP fallback
•    DHCP Server
•    DHCP Relay Agent

DHCP Client with IP FallbackThe switch will automatically obtain an IP assignment from a DHCP Server, or optionally fallback to a default IP assignment if unable to get an IP assignment from a connected DHCP server.
 

DHCP Server Configured as a DHCP Server, the switch will respond to IP address requests from DHCP client devices with an IP address assignment. IP assignments can be set up as a dynamic range of IP addresses or with a specific IP address assignment based on the device Client ID (Option 61) or Relay Agent connection (Option 82).

Option 82 allows for a device on a specific port to receive a specific IP address assignment. As a result, devices can be replaced by maintenance personnel without the need to program an IP address in the unit, as long as it is configured as a DHCP client and connected to the same port.
 

MAC Address-Based Port SecurityWhen enabled, the NT24k’s Port Security feature provides enhanced security by restricting port access to devices that have an authorized MAC address. MAC address authorization can be learned dynamically or entered manually.

The new features are available with NT24k firmware version 2.1.5 and are available to existing NT24k customers at no additional charge by updating the firmware of their NT24k hardware.
