Belden has introduced the RSR DIN Rail Mount and MACH1000 Rack Mount Ruggedized Switches from Hirschmann, designed specifically for use under extreme conditions.
The switches are designed to withstand high temperatures, shock, vibration and EMC concerns.
The ruggedized fan-less line comprises a wide product spectrum with the RSR having up to a 10-port full-fibre rail switch and the MACH1000 able to be full copper, full fibre or a combination of both.
All components have been designed for an operating temperature range of —40° C up to +85° C.
The switches are built on an OpenRail platform. Both have direct AC and/or DC, low and/or high voltage redundant power available and can be offered with Power over Ethernet (PoE) ports.
Belden’s RSR and MACH1000 über-rugged switches are fully compliant to substation standards IEC 61850-3 and IEEE 1613 and are NEMA TS2 and EN 50155 compliant.
