Overview / Buoyant platform
Layer 3 intelligence
inside the sealed edge.
Buoyant-12PL3 combines the sealed 12-port Buoyant platform with full Layer 3 routing. It is built for railway and field networks that need local segmentation, resilient routing and powered edge devices in exposed locations.
The platform supports eight M12 Gigabit PoE ports, four SFP slots and industrial timing and redundancy functions across a wide operating-temperature range.
Product highlights
- Layer 3 routing inside an IP67 enclosure
- Eight M12 PoE/PoE+ access ports
- Four fiber uplinks for resilient backbones
- IPv4/IPv6 and multicast routing
