Alcatel-Lucent OmniSwitch 6855
HARDENED LAN SWITCH
Alcatel-Lucent OmniSwitch™ 6855 Hardened LAN Switch (HLS) models are industrial grade,
managed, Gigabit Ethernet switches designed to operate reliably in harsh electrical
environments and severe temperatures. This superior, rugged hardware design, coupled with
the widely deployed and field-proven Alcatel-Lucent Operating System (AOS), makes the
OmniSwitch 6855 ideal for industrial and mission-critical applications that require wider
operating temperatures, more stringent EMC/EMI requirements and optimized features set for
high security, reliability, performance and easy management.
The target applications for these versatile LAN switches are power utilities, transportation and
traffic control systems, industrial factory floor installations, video surveillance systems and
outdoor installations, all of which require gigabit backbone connectivity.
