GE's family of MultiLink switches and MultiNet serial port servers provide secure, reliable communications for critical infrastructure and devices. With more than 12 different models to choose from, it's easy to find the right solution for any application, environment, and project size.
From compact 6 port unmanaged switches, to high density 32 port managed switches with dual power supplies, MultiLink products are designed and tested in the same environment as all GE Multilin relays and protection devices. This reliability is proven and backed by industry-leading testing and certification, including UL Listing and IEC 61850 Test Certification from KEMA Labs. In addition to physical considerations such as temperature, humidity, EMF, and chemical corrosion, MultiLink switches are built with intelligent recovery options to quickly and seamlessly retain network integrity after any type of disruption. This ensures your critical infrastructure is available and online all the time.
Powerful Network Security to help enable Critical Cyber Protection and CIP compliance using Remote Access Security, Multi-Level Password Control, and Event Logging
Maximum flexibility and Interconnectivity with a wide variety of Interface Options for copper or Fiber at speeds from 10Mbps to 1000Mbps
Built-in Support for industrial protocols and applications, including Modbus, DNP 3.0, and IEC 61850 traffic
Not all devices that need to be networked have standard Ethernet interfaces. Older equipment with serial interfaces may need to be integrated into the network. MultiNet devices allow you to bring the centralized accessibility and control of Ethernet networks beyond traditional boundaries by connecting serial devices to the network. By bridging the gap between serial devices and the Ethernet network, the MultiNet family enables data connections for SCADA, HMI, Remote Monitoring, configuration and troubleshooting in virtually any environment.
The new MultiNet1000, allows you to go even further by enabling Wide-Area-Networking using the built-in router functionality, while ensuring continued security and protection from intruders and unauthorized devices via its integrated IP Firewall to deliver always-on network security.
