  • Managed LACP and ring fail-over keep the network running if a link drops
  • Operates reliably from -40 °C to +75 °C for harsh environments
  • Dual DC power inputs provide backup supply if one source fails
  • IP30-rated metal housing resists shock and vibration in industrial settings

Industrial managed switch for harsh environments

The Black Box LIG1014A is a 14-port managed switch built for industrial networks that face extreme conditions. It delivers ten RJ-45 ports operating at 10/100/1000 Mbps and four multispeed SFP slots for fibre uplinks. The unit is rated for continuous operation from -40 to +75°C, making it suitable for outdoor cabinets, factory floors and transportation infrastructure.

Installation basics and common pitfalls

The switch mounts on a DIN rail inside a standard cabinet and accepts dual DC power inputs for redundant supply. Its IP30-rated metal housing resists shock and vibration, so no special shock mounts are required. A frequent oversight is leaving the SFP slots empty without a compatible transceiver; the ports will not pass traffic until a supported module is inserted and the link negotiates.

Capacity headroom and limits

The ten copper ports and four SFP uplinks provide a total of 14 gigabit connections for cameras, controllers and aggregation links. Managed features such as LACP, spanning tree and ring fail-over protect bandwidth during a single link failure. The switch does not offer Power over Ethernet, so any PoE devices need separate injectors or a midspan source.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the LIG1014A is operating correctly after installation?

Check the port status LEDs for link and activity on all ten RJ-45 ports and four SFP slots, then log into the management interface to confirm spanning tree and LACP status show healthy topology.

What comes with the LIG1014A and what must I source separately?

The switch includes the IP30-rated chassis with dual DC power terminals; you must supply SFP transceivers for the four multispeed slots and Ethernet cables for the ten RJ-45 ports.

Which LIG1014A variant should I choose for a -40°C to +75°C environment?

The LIG1014A is a single model rated for the full -40 to +75°C range, so select this part number when you need extreme-temperature operation with ten copper and four SFP ports.
