The Ethernet isolator 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). In accordance with the IEC EN 60601-1 standard for medical electrical devices and systems, the Ethernet Network Isolator protects the network interface by two independent protective measures (2 MOPP) to the patient and the network connection is safely galvanically isolated 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. Plugand-play design provides the fast and easy way of installation.
