Insulators ensure safety
Even in medical environments, it must be ensured that sensitive medical devices and patients are protected from potentially dangerous electrical interference. This is achieved through the use of galvanic isolators, which separate the flow of electrical currents between two network components, thereby rendering any potential fluctuations or voltage peaks harmless. The quality of the network connection and data transmission is not impaired. The international safety standard IEC 60601-1 regulates where a galvanic isolator must be coupled into the medical electrical network and what technical properties it must have.
RJ45 network isolators
Our tested, UL-certified compact RJ45 network isolators have been specially designed for Ethernet networks in medical areas, but are equally suitable for industrial Ethernet applications. They provide galvanic isolation in accordance with the strict medical technology safety standard EN 60601-1 (2MOPP) and offer reliable protection against dangerous potential differences, external and interference voltages from the LAN connection with an Ethernet transmission rate of 10 Gbit/s.
The product is suitable for wall or top-hat rail mounting (using accessories).

USB isolator
To protect sensitive devices that are connected to a PC via a USB cable, we have a powerful isolator for you: this isolator also meets the strict IEC 60601-1 – 2MOPP safety standard and is UL, IEC and FCC certified. The reinforced insulation provides additional safety. It is compatible with hubs and extenders and – like the network isolator – can be mounted on a top-hat rail using accessories.
