The Hirschmann BXP62-20TX-EECC-HV-2A is a managed industrial Ethernet switch from the BOBCAT eXtreme Performance series, designed to meet the rigorous connectivity demands of railway rolling stock and onboard train applications. With 20 M12 X-coded ports in total — comprising 4 x 1/2.5/10 Gbit/s TX ports, 2 x 1/2.5/10 Gbit/s TX PoE++ ports, 2 x 10/100/1000 Mbit/s TX PoE++ ports, and 12 x 10/100/1000 Mbit/s TX PoE+ ports — the BXP62-20TX-EECC-HV-2A delivers up to 10 Gbps switching capacity alongside 120W total PoE budget for powering onboard passenger information systems, cameras, and access control devices. All connections use M12 X-coded connectors with Inner-Push Pull compatibility per IEC 61076-2-010, ensuring secure and vibration-resistant mating in mobile environments. The switch is powered at 110 VDC (77–138 V range) and carries full EN 50155 railway electronics certification alongside EN 50121-4 EMC and EN 45545 HL3 fire safety approvals, making it directly compliant with European train homologation requirements. The HiOS 2A software platform provides advanced Layer 2 switching with HIPER-Ring, MRP (IEC 62439-2), MSTP, LACP link aggregation, and Sub Ring Manager redundancy. Industrial protocol support covers PROFINET, EtherNet/IP, and Modbus TCP. Security capabilities include 802.1X, DHCP Snooping, Dynamic ARP Inspection, IP Source Guard, TACACS+, LDAP, and secure boot with signed firmware. Conformal coating on the PCB and flat surface mounting in an IP40 metal enclosure ensure reliable operation at up to 3000 m altitude.
