MPL is excited to announce our latest innovation: a rugged and compact ten-port Gigabit Switch with 2x 10Gbit SFP+ ports, the μMAXBES-C8F1. This product upholds MPL’s commitment to long-term availability, extended temperature capability, flexibility, and low power requirements. The fanless μMAXBES-C8F1 features eight 1Gbit ports and two 10Gbit ports, each equipped with status LEDs to indicate activity and speed.

The μMAXBES solution is extremely compact, with dimensions of 162mm x 120mm x 62mm, and a weight of 1.2kg. The switch can be mounted on a DIN-Rail or flange and offers custom colour or foil options. It operates on a wide input voltage range of 5–36VDC and consumes just 6W when fully operational with SFP+ modules. The switch can function in temperatures from -20°C to +60°C, with an optional extended temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Key technical features of the μMAXBES-C8F1 include:

  • Two 10Gbit SFP+ ports
  • Eight 1Gbit RJ45 ports
  • Wide input 5-36VDC
  • Fully manageable via Web interface or Telnet
  • Support for IEEE802.1AS gPTP
  • Optional CLI via RS232
  • Auto crossover (Auto MDI/MDIX) and auto-negotiation on copper ports
  • Supports 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, and 1000BASE-T standards
  • IEEE 802.1Q VLAN, IEEE 802.1X MAC Address Checking, IGMPv3, and more
  • SNMPv1, v2c, and v3 support

The μMAXBES-C8F1 meets rigorous standards for EMC, shock and vibration, environmental, and safety compliance, including EN 55022, EN 55024, MIL-STD-461, EN 60068, EN 50155, MIL-STD-810, and more. This makes it an ideal candidate for rugged, industrial, and secure network applications. The switch is customisable upon request to fit specific requirements.

The μMAXBES 10-port Switch is 100% designed and manufactured by MPL AG in Switzerland, ensuring the highest quality, long-term availability, and reliable support.
