Unique combinations: Security mechanisms, diagnostic methods & redundancy measures
The extensive capabilities available through Hirschmann’s proven HiOS software give the switches unique combinations of security mechanisms, diagnostic methods and redundancy measures. HiOS actively supports IT/OT convergence and the IIoT with a built-in OPC UA Server that enables secure data collection and seamless communication across the entire network – from the field all the way up to the cloud. Robust enough to operate in industrial environments, with configurable capacity and best-in-class performance, the GREYHOUND 105/106 family delivers a cost-effective, scalable way to build the future-facing network needed for the IIoT.
Applications
GREYHOUND 105/106 Ethernet switches are ideal for industrial networks where IT/OT convergence requires speed, reliability, ease of use and security. Depending on the network size, the device can serve as a backbone or aggregation layer switch or router*. With up to 14 2.5GE ports, the device enables customers to terminate a large number of high-speed connections coming from the field.
The GREYHOUND also offers downward compatibility for existing infrastructure. And with its wide operating temperature range and fanless design, which reduces unplanned maintenance outages, it can be installed in both harsh environmental conditions, as well as control cabinets, without the need for powerful cooling system.
