The RSB20 series of managed switches consists of 8 core models, each of which are optionally available in high temperature configurations and/or preconfigured with IGMP Snooping intitially active (multicast filtering) for EtherNet/IP use. These switches offer redundant DC power inputs and a variety of multimode (SC), singlemode (SC), and SFP socket options. The RSB20 portfolio offers users a quality, hardened, reliable communications solution that provides an economically attractive entry into the segment of managed switches.
The new Hirschmann™ RSB20 family comprises 32 different models distinguished by the number and type of ports offered as well as by their factory settings for EtherNet/IP and specific operating temperature ranges. For the first time, this provides an entry into the segment of managed switches at an attractive cost level, since customers will pay only for their exact equipment needs. The RSB20 portfolio permits customized communications solutions without any compromises in quality.
This includes special versions optimized for specific applications as well as a "universal version" with 3 SFP ports. The flexible adaptation to any application also reduces stock keeping.
Applications
Even at the lower entry level, i.e. for smaller networks in mechanical engineering and automation technology, the adaptability and versatility of the RSB switches opens doors without having to settle for the entire scope of available management functions. For this reason, Belden has introduced the "lean" solution of Hirschmann™ RSB20 Basic Switches, maximizing individual performance features for a perfect fit in virtually any cost-efficient automation application.
