Hirschmann RS30-1602OOZZSDAEHC09.0.10 Open rack-style Ethernet switch
The Hirschmann RS30-1602OOZZSDAEHC09.0.10 is an industrial, DIN-rail mounted managed OpenRail Ethernet switch engineered for harsh factory and field automation settings.
Combining high-speed Gigabit uplink options with robust Fast Ethernet ports, this model ensures fast data throughput and uninterrupted operations across critical networks.
Unique Product Description
The RS30-1602OOZZSDAEHC09.0.10 represents a specific, fully-customized OpenRail configuration from Hirschmann (Belden).
It features 18 total ports: 16 Fast Ethernet ports (10/100 Mbit/s) paired with 2 Gigabit Ethernet Combo ports (10/100/1000 Mbit/s RJ45 or 1000 Mbit/s SFP fiber transceivers).
Operating on the classic Hirschmann Classic Software (Enhanced Software Package), it offers Layer 2 management features including HIPER-Ring redundancy, VLAN management, Port Security, and Quality of Service (QoS). Built with a fanless, IP30 industrial enclosure and redundant power supply inputs, it delivers reliable connectivity under heavy thermal and electromagnetic stress.
Product Advantages and Features
High Port Density & Hybrid Speed: Delivers 16 local Fast Ethernet ports for field devices alongside 2 Gigabit uplinks for high-bandwidth backbone connections.
Rapid Fault Recovery (HIPER-Ring): Supports fast ring recovery times ($\le 30\text{ ms}$), preventing network downtime during physical link cuts.
Dual Power Redundancy: Operates with redundant $12/24/48\text{ VDC}$ power inputs to maintain continuous operation if a primary power source fails.
Rugged Fanless Design: Extends MTBF (Mean Time Between Failures) by removing moving parts and using a metal chassis rated for harsh ambient temperatures.
Seamless Fieldbus Integration: Features native PROFINET and EtherNet/IP profiles for easy integration into industrial automation networks and PLC control systems.
Application Cases
Factory Automation & Assembly Lines: Connecting distributed I/O blocks, motor drives, PLCs, and operator interfaces (HMIs) across large manufacturing facilities.
Power Substation & Renewable Energy: Routing real-time telemetry from wind turbine towers or solar inverter clusters back to central SCADA systems.
Traffic Control & Transportation Systems: Providing edge switching for wayside rail systems, smart highway message boards, and IP surveillance cameras.
Water & Wastewater Treatment: Link remotely scattered pumping stations, flow meters, and dosing units in large municipal networks.
Installation and Maintenance
Installation
DIN-Rail Mounting: Snap the switch onto a standard $35\text{ mm}$ top-hat DIN rail inside an IP54 or better protective cabinet.
Grounding: Secure a heavy-gauge copper earth strap to the grounding terminal on the switch chassis before powering on.
Power Wiring: Connect dual DC power feeds to the terminal block ($V_1+/V_1-$ and $V_2+/V_2-$).
Network Cabling: Plug RJ45 copper cables (Cat5e or better) or insert compatible SFP optical transceivers into the Gigabit uplink slots.
Maintenance
Configuration Backup: Use an ACA21-USB or ACA11 Auto-Configuration Adapter to store system configuration parameters offline for one-touch field replacement.
Diagnostic LEDs: Monitor the P1/P2 (Power status), FAULT (Relay output alarm status), and RM (Ring Manager mode) LEDs for immediate status checks.
Firmware Updates: Perform remote updates via the Hirschmann Industrial Network Manager (HiVision) or Web-Based Management (WBM).
