Hirschmann has expanded the BOBCAT range of Ethernet switches, bringing the features and security advantages of the HiOS-based range to applications that require a high density of ports.
The previous range was limited to a maximum of 12 ports but now the range extends to 24 ports of Fast Ethernet, 24 ports of Gigabit and the BRS50 has a maximum of four 2.5 Gb with 20 Gb ports.
Recent firmware changes to the range have increased the feature set to include full IPv6 management support, 802.1AS time sync, IEEE1588 v2 time sync, monitoring via popular industrial protocols with future support to include OPC UA in a future release.
The switches also enable real-time communication using time-sensitive networking (TSN) and are a suitable solution for classic automation applications that require real-time communication, advanced security, low latency and the simultaneous synchronisation of data and information to control operations.
