Managed Ind Ethernet Switches

Managed Industrial Ethernet Switches

Our range of managed switches span from OpenRail switches with management functions that guarantee high availability of complex automation systems with innovative redundancy solutions and the option of network monitoring. To Modular Rail switches that excel due to their flexibility through problem free planning, minimum storage problems and easy adaptation to the most varied network topologies. Plus Ethernet / Fast-ETHERNET Media Modules, real-time media modules and Gigabit ETHRNET Media modules

Hirschmann has produced a new version of the HIPER Ring protocol that claims a guaranteed recovery time of less than 10 milliseconds. The ring structure allows both a cost optimised implementation of a redundant network as well as maintenance and network extension during operation. This makes Fast HIPER Ring especially suitable for complex applications such as a combined transmission of video, audio and data information. At present this protocol is used in the switches of the MACH 1000 and RSR product series. The managed Fast/Gigabit Ethernet switches of the MACH 1000 and RSR series are designed for ambient conditions with electrostatic discharges, magnetic fields or strong vibrations. Whilst the MACH 1000 devices are designed for use in the switch cabinet, the RSR switches can be mounted on DIN rails or on the wall.
