The following image shows a PLC and controllers are installed in the NEMA enclosure, and it assumes control pumps in a water treatment plant. However, it is always necessary to have a surveillance system for the purpose of security in this kind of crucial industrial field. The facility may install a PoE switch to power the camera and connect to the fiber cable going back to their remote control center. A regular-sized switch might not fit in such a cramped space, so a compact-size switch comes in handy at this moment, given the very limited room in the NEMA enclosure.

Above are just simple and familiar cases for compact-size switch’s possibility. Engineers in the fields will always find smaller size devices more convenient and practical when the circumstance is limited by enclosures and other factors. There will not be a further discussion if the device does not fit into the enclosure in the first place. Leonton’s compact-size products, including industrial switches, power boosters and other extended product lines, are able to fit into any limited space with the ability to work in harsh environments and allow you to build a secure and reliable network.
