Operating Guide

PoE at/af powered device with RJ45 based dongle
Lantech N-Key is a configuration auto backup, upgrade and editable restoration tool for 3 series and above managed switches or routers. With RJ45 to USB dongle, N-key is able to run on PoE power or 5V DC external power for carry away use. Optional M12 cable allows N-key to work on M12 models.

Auto upgrade, auto backup and editable configuration up to 256 nodes
By connecting the RJ45 port of switch / router, users can auto backup the configuration or auto upgrade the firmware, and then take N-key to PC to edit the configuration file for restoring the configuration. One N-key can support up to 256 nodes of backup, upgrade and editable configuration.

Select DIP switch mode, go on the fly
With DIP switch mode setting (backup/upgrade/restore/USB dongle), N-key can work as easy as plug-n-play making the replacement switch/router up and running in seconds on the field. When a switch or router failure occurs, users can quickly re-install system configuration and recover the entire configuration of the system as well, including IP address.

Industrial design for quick replacement configuration
Able to work with -20C to 60C temperature, N-key is the configuration tool for quick replacement of Lantech switch / router on site without the reach of PC / notebook that can be handled by non-IT technician.

N-Key is designed to meet the demands of industrial environments and has been tested extensively to meet industrial EMI and EMC standards.
