Eaton Tripp Lite Series Ethernet Network Isolator, Hospital-Grade, RJ45 for Patient Care Vicinity, IEC 60601-1

Features

Isolate Medical Equipment on an Ethernet Network to Enhance Patient Safety

Tripp Lite's N234-MI-1005 medical Ethernet isolator protects staff, patients and medical technology equipment in patient care vicinities from dangerous leakage currents that can travel through a copper-based Ethernet network. It effectively isolates medical equipment to protect patients, yet allows data to flow at Gigabit Ethernet speeds.

Comply with IEC 60601-1 for Use in the Patient Care Vicinity

The N234-MI-1005 complies with IEC 60601-1 and EMC/IEC 60601-1-2 safety standards for a network connection between a medical device and an Ethernet network or non-medical device (PC or laptop). Because it meets IEC 60601-1 standards, this medical network isolator can be used in patient care vicinities. For example, you can use this 60601-1 network isolator in the connection between a clinic's network and the PC of a prolonged EEG system. (Note: You can only connect network components that comply with IEEE 802.3 or IEEE 802.3ab. You cannot connect telecommunication appliances, voltage supplies or similar devices.)

Install In-Line on an Ethernet Network

This Ethernet network isolator has two RJ45 ports and acts as a coupler, joining two tested and approved Cat6 cables to complete the connection between compatible medical equipment and a computer or data network. Because the cables are removable, you can replace a failed cable without replacing the isolator. Completely plug and play, this RJ45 isolator does not require software, drivers or a power supply.

Comply with TAA Requirements

The N234-MI-1005 complies with the Federal Trade Agreements Act (TAA) for GSA Schedule purchases.

One-Year Warranty

The N234-MI-1005 is backed by a one-year warranty, ensuring reliability and performance.

Typical Applications

• Isolate medical equipment connected to an Ethernet network to protect patients in patient care vicinities

• Connect an EMG measuring station with an analysis computer in a doctor's consulting room

• Connect the PC of a prolonged EEG system to a clinic's network

System Requirements

• Network components that comply with IEEE 802.3 or IEEE 802.3ab (10/100/1000BASE-T, twisted-pair)

More from the Manufacturer

Medical Ethernet Isolator Protects Patients and Staff from Dangerous Leakage Currents

Tripp Lite’s N234-MI-1005 Medical Ethernet Isolator meets IEC 60601-1 standards for use in patient-care areas. This in-line isolator features RJ45 connectors on each end, so it acts as a coupler, joining two Cat6 cables in a matter of seconds. While still allowing data to flow at Gigabit speeds, it protects patients, staff and sensitive medical equipment from harmful leakage currents that travel through copper-based Ethernet networks.

Typical Applications

Joining two Cat6 patch cables to make a longer cable in a patient-care area of a medical facility

Feed-through patching for hospital rooms and doctor’s offices

Meets IEC 60601-1 Specifications for Use in Patient-Care Vicinities

Because this isolator meets IEC 60601-1 and EMC/IEC 60601-1-2 safety standards, it can be used in any area of any medical facility, including the area within six feet of a patient. Use it to connect a clinic’s network to a PC in an exam room or an EEG system attached to a patient. As long as you only use it to connect network components that meet IEEE 802.3 or IEE 802.3ab specifications, and do not connect telecom equipment, voltage supplies or similar devices, the possibilities are endless.

Easy to Install and Use

With no software, drivers or external power required, the N234-MI-1005 is completely plug-and-play. Simply connect a Cat6 cable to each end of it, then complete your connection on the other ends of the cables. Because the cables are removable, if one of them fails you can easily replace it without having to replace the isolator.
