Some Network Switch Applications
• Conference/Meeting Rooms / Laboratories / Security - switching between e.g. two or more camera systems, displays, lab set ups, or switching a single camera or device between multiple rooms or destinations.
• Broadcast / Streaming Studios: switching HDMI video sources, audio channels, data/control, maybe powering devices on/off.
• Manufacturing / Automation - Controlling machines, devices, robotics on the factory floor providing redundancy in the event of network failures
• Industrial / Power Plants/ Transportation: controlling switch sources with automatic fallback in the event of network failures (e.g., flow control, signals, analysis, testing, etc).
•Corporate / Government / Defense : Switches can be ruggedized and built for rack use, it suits environments requiring reliability and MIL spec standards.
Interface Converters: Fiber, USB, RS232/422/485, TTL Logic & More
Interface converters bridge differing physical and communication standards — such as serial protocols to fiber optic links — to help extend or convert data/network connections ensuring reliable, long-distance or interference-resistant data connections.
Some Key Benefits of Interface Converters
• Convert and extend data communication links (RS-232/422/485/USB) over copper or fiber media.
• Improve signal integrity and distance performance in industrial automation and remote monitoring.
• Connect control equipment, terminals, and machinery in harsh, noisy environments.
Industries Served: Factory automation, building control, point-of-sale systems, telecommunication networks, and distributed data systems such as video lottery or ATM terminals.
SCUPs (SuperCapacitor UPS Systems)
The SCups® line are supercapacitor-based uninterruptible power supplies designed to provide reliable DC backup power where power continuity is essential, especially in remote or intermittent grid power environments.
Some Key Benefits of SCUPs Systems
• Provide backup power to nominal 12 VDC or 24 VDC applications when primary power is lost.
• Ideal for low-power remote installations such as renewable energy systems, grid-edge sensors, and communications nodes.
• Support orderly system shutdown and state-of-charge monitoring via digital signaling.
Industries Served: Renewable energy (solar, wind, wave), remote monitoring, telecom base stations, industrial controls, and power management systems.

CellMite® and related DAQ products (including digital signal conditioners and embedded data acquisition boards) provide high-performance signal conditioning and data capture for measurement and control applications.
The Model 4215 Series are smart strain gauge indicators, featuring microprocessor-based instrumentation for accurate measurement and control of strain gauge transducers, load cells, encoders, and test systems.
Some Key Benefits of CellMite, DAQ, and Smart Indicator (4215) Systems
•Convert and condition sensor signals from load cells, LVDTs, and other transducers.
•Serve as embedded DAQ platforms for integration in industrial systems.
•Enable precise measurement, control visualization, and data logging with supporting software.
•Precision measurement and control of load cells and force transducers.
•Data logging, calibration, and communications over USB or RS-232/485.
•Versatile applications including material testing, manufacturing process control, aerospace thrust measurement, and structural testing.
Industries Served: Manufacturing facilities, test & measurement, calibration labs, industrial process control, and sensor integration systems. Aerospace & defense, automotive testing, industrial labs, construction material testing, and any environment requiring precision force/strain measurement.
