HIRSCHMANN RS2-4TX/1FX EEC Industrial Ethernet Rail Switch 2
HIRSCHMANN RS2-4TX/1FX EEC Industrial Ethernet Rail Switch 2
The Rail Switches – RS2-3TX/2FX EEC– RS2-3TX/2FX-SM EEC– RS2-4TX/1FX EEC – RS2-4TX/1FX-ST EEC– RS2-4TX/1FX-SM EEC– RS2-4TX EEC
in short RS2-xTX/xFX EEC, are switches
especially designed for use in industrial
environments. They support Ethernet 10
MBit/s and Fast Ethernet 100 MBit/s.
The Rail Switch modules support switched
Ethernet networks in accordance with IEEE
standard 802.3 using copper and fiber optic
technology. The switch modules are plug
ged onto the standard DIN rail.
The RS2-3TX/2FX… modules have three
10/100 MBit/s twisted pair ports
(10/100BASE-TX, RJ45 connectors) and two
100 MBit/s fiber optic ports (100BASE-FX,
Duplex SC connector).
It is possible to connect up to three DTEs or
other TP/TX network segments to the TP/TX
ports using twisted pair cabling. Two further
DTEs or optical network components can be
connected to the fiber ports.
The RS2-4TX/1FX… modules have four
10/100 MBit/s twisted pair ports
(10/100BASE-TX, RJ45 connectors) and one
100 MBit/s fiber optic port (100BASE-FX,
Duplex SC connector or ST connector on
R2-4TX/1FX-ST EEC).
The RS2-4TX EEC module has four
10/100 MBit/s twisted pair ports
(10/100BASE-TX, RJ45 connectors).
It is possible to connect up to four DTEs or
other TP/TX network segments to the TP/TX
ports using twisted pair cabling. One further
DTE or optical network component can be
connected to the fiber port (with RS2
4TX/1FX…).
The TP ports support auto negotiation,
autopolarity and autocrossing.
The fiber optic ports support full duplex
(FDX).
The performance features described here
are binding only if they have been expressly
guaranteed in the contract. We have
checked that the contents of the technical
publication agree with the hardware and
software described. However, it is not possi
ble to rule out deviations completely, so we
are unable to guarantee complete agree
ment. However, the details in the technical
publication are checked regularly. Any cor
rections which prove necessary are contai
ned in subsequent editions. We are grateful
for suggestions for improvement.
We reserve the right to make technical
modifications.
