Product Description

3.1. Product Description
The Viper-12A series consists of managed 12 port routing switches optimized for the needs of the railway rolling stock market. Gbps ports cope with high bandwidth devices such as access points and NVRs (Network Video Recorders). The Viper-12A series is designed to withstand the tough environment on-board trains, exposing the switch to constant vibration, extreme temperatures, humidity, and a demanding electrical environment. A GORE-TEX® membrane prevents internal condensation. Threading integrated in 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 the ingress of water and dust. An overall optimized 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 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 is very useful for separating networks in complex applications. The backup device accessory matches the Viper in robustness and offers easy configuration update and backup. Meeting the requirements of the railcar market, the Viper-12A series is very well suited for deployment in any other application with severe operating conditions and tough environments, for instance in the mining industry.

3.2. Available Models
All switches are managed. Viper x12A is used when referring to both models 112A and 212A.

NOTE – MECHANICAL FORCE ON VENTILATION MEMBRANE
Do not cover or bring mechanical force to the ventilation membrane on the back of the product.
