Description

Features

  • Full-size Chassis:
    The S1 features a robust 3mm stainless steel chassis with thick aluminum panels for enhanced durability and vibration resistance.
  • Power Supply:
    It includes a large transformer and  capacitor bank.
  • Ultra-Low Jitter Clock:
    Utilizes an NDK ultra-low jitter clock and supports 10MHz external clock input.
  • Connectivity:
    Equipped with x4 SFP+ compatible ports*1 and x7 Neutrik RJ45 LAN ports. The increasingly important SFP+ ports support 10Gbps SFP+ modules and DELA SFP direct attach cable ‘C1.’ The RJ45 ports use Neutrik ports, known for their high mating accuracy and robustness.
  • Link speed selector:
    DELA S1 features a front button that allows variable speed adjustment for all ports. The RJ45 LAN ports can be set to 1Gbps, 100Mbps, or 10Mbps, and the SFP+ ports can switch from 1Gbps to 10Gbps.*2
  • Disabling unused ports:
    Not only can the speed be changed, but unused ports can be electrically completely shut down. This allows you to optimize the network according to the usage status of the connected devices.
  • Front color LED indicators:
    The communication speed of each port is displayed using color LEDs, with 1Gbps (light blue) as the standard, allowing for easy visual confirmation of speed changes. Front-mounted dimmer button is to adjust LED brightness. The LEDs indicating operational status on the left and right sides of the front panel, as well as the color LEDs on the button section, can be dimmed using the dimmer buttons. (The LEDs on the button section can be turned off.)
  • Rear panel LED indicatiors
    The rear panel, where the LED port connectors are lined up, is also equipped with LEDs that are convenient for checking connections and communication speeds. After confirming the connections, you can turn off the LEDs by pressing a button, eliminating the influence of LED control
  • Made in Japan:
    S1 is made by the “master” who is well trained to build the product. The factory is located in Nagoya, Aich Prefecture, which has historically been renowned for its manufacturing industry.
