 NS40 intrinsically safe
wireless network switch

The MST Global (MST) intrinsically safe Wireless Network Switch is the heart of a scalable, high-speed, communications
system for both underground and surface operations. Designed to cope with time-sensitive, high-bandwidth applications and
enabling functionality such as VoIP, IP video streaming, control system management, mobile data acquisition, real-time vehicle
diagnostics, and asset / personnel tracking right to the coal face. The IMPACT Wireless Network Switch provides a quantum leap
forward from traditional technologies by delivering improvements in reliability, bandwidth, data quality, system capacity and
support for open standards. It also addresses the challenge of power distribution in an underground environment.
