The Hirschmann IT MTS2624-4X-B is a 1U rack-mount Layer 2 managed Gigabit Ethernet switch belonging to the MAMMUTHUS series, designed for network engineers deploying scalable and secure switching infrastructure in enterprise, industrial IT, and data centre edge environments. Manufactured by Hirschmann IT, a Belden brand, the MTS2624-4X-B provides 24 FE/GE TX copper ports alongside four 1/10G SFP+ uplink slots, a dedicated RJ45 console port, and USB 2.0 interface, all within a compact 442 x 44.2 x 220 mm 1U chassis weighing just 3.6 kg. Layer 2 functionality is comprehensive, encompassing MAC address learning and static configuration, Q-in-Q and flexible VLAN mapping, STP/RSTP/MSTP, GVRP, Voice VLAN, BPDU tunnelling, multi-to-multi port mirroring, and RSPAN for remote traffic analysis. Security features are enterprise-grade, including IPv4/v6 ACL, 802.1X port authentication, RADIUS, TACACS+, SSH, DHCP snooping, DAI, ARP check, and IP source guard, alongside comprehensive attack protection against SYN Flood, LAND, Smurf, and Ping of Death vectors. QoS supports SP, WRR, and SP+WRR scheduling with RED and WRED congestion avoidance, and the switch supports virtualisation via stacking of up to eight units for simplified large-scale network management. ERPS G.8032 ring protocol provides fast link redundancy, while M-LAG and Netconf support data centre-grade deployment scenarios. Management options include Console, HTTP, Telnet, SSH, SNMP v1/v2/v3, RMON, and sFlow. Operating from -10 °C to +55 °C at just 26 W, the MTS2624-4X-B is suited to industrial IT infrastructure, campus networks, edge data centres, and smart factory switching environments.
