BRS30-20TX/4SFP – 24-Port SFP Managed TSN Switch by Hirschmann

The Hirschmann BRS30-20TX/4SFP is a compact, fanless, DIN Rail-mounted managed industrial Ethernet switch from the BOBCAT series, providing 24 ports — 20x Fast Ethernet RJ45 and four SFP slots supporting 100/1000 Mbit/s fibre — with TSN 802.1Qbv real-time networking, PROFINET, EtherNet/IP, and full redundancy. With its high port density and flexible SFP fibre uplinks, it serves as the ideal managed backbone switch for large factory and process automation networks. Available from Recab, your Nordic partner for Hirschmann managed industrial switch solutions.

Description
The Hirschmann BRS30-20TX/4SFP is a 24-port managed industrial Ethernet switch from the Hirschmann BOBCAT series, designed for network engineers who need to connect a large number of industrial devices while simultaneously maintaining Gigabit-capable, fibre-based uplinks in a single compact DIN Rail unit. It provides 20x 10/100BASE-TX RJ45 access ports and four SFP uplink slots — arranged as two dual-SFP uplinks — each supporting 100/1000 Mbit/s with interchangeable single mode, long-haul single mode, or multimode SFP fibre modules, allowing the fibre type and reach to be matched precisely to site topology without hardware changes. The switch operates from 0 to +60°C in a fanless PC-ABS DIN Rail enclosure with IP30 protection and an MTBF of over 2.31 million hours. TSN 802.1Qbv on interfaces 1/1 to 1/3 provides the deterministic, real-time Ethernet communication that advanced manufacturing automation, robotic coordination, and time-sensitive machine control demand. The BRS30-20TX/4SFP is fully compatible with PROFINET, EtherNet/IP, Modbus TCP, and IEC 61850. Redundancy features include HIPER-Ring, MRP (IEC 62439-2) as both manager and client, RSTP, Link Aggregation with LACP, and Redundant Network Coupling. Security capabilities cover 802.1X, RADIUS, VLAN-based ACLs, Secure Boot, and signed firmware. USB-C local management and AutoConfiguration Adapter support enable rapid commissioning and device replacement. Available from Recab, your Nordic partner for Hirschmann managed industrial switch solutions.
Features
  • Twenty-four ports including four SFP slots support 100/1000 Mbit/s single mode, long-haul, or multimode fibre uplinks.
  • TSN 802.1Qbv on three interfaces delivers deterministic real-time Ethernet for time-critical automation and machine control.
  • HIPER-Ring, MRP (IEC 62439-2), and RSTP redundancy provide rapid failover and continuous uptime in production environments.
  • PROFINET, EtherNet/IP, Modbus TCP, and IEC 61850 support enables integration with all leading industrial control platforms.
  • MTBF exceeding 2.31 million hours ensures long-term reliable operation for continuous industrial network deployments.
  • 802.1X access control, RADIUS, Secure Boot, and signed firmware deliver robust industrial network cybersecurity protection.
