The Hirschmann RSPE35-8TX/4C-EEC-2HV-3S is a hardened, fanless enhanced managed industrial Ethernet switch representing the pinnacle of the RSPE35 EEC family, combining extended temperature operation from -40 to +70°C — validated against IEC 60068-2-2 dry heat testing at +85°C — with the broadest feature set in the RSPE platform: TSN, PRP, HSR, Fast MRP, DLR, NAT, and full L3 routing. The base unit delivers eight 10/100 Fast Ethernet TX ports and four Fast/Gigabit Ethernet combo RJ45/SFP ports, expandable to 28 ports via two media module slots. Dual wide-range power inputs accept 60–250 VDC or 110–230 VAC for direct deployment in high-voltage DC substation buses and industrial AC mains environments. The comprehensive redundancy suite covers MRP, HIPER-Ring, HIPER-Ring over Link Aggregation, MSTP, VRRP with HiVRRP enhancements, Sub Ring Manager, Redundant Network Coupling, RSTP guards, Fast MRP, HSR, and PRP. L3 routing adds full wire-speed OSPFv2, RIPv2, static unicast routing, VLAN-based router interfaces, Proxy ARP, and IGMP multicast routing. TSN ensures deterministic latency for next-generation automation applications. Management includes OPC-UA Server, ITxPT Module Inventory, IPv6 Management, and Service Discovery. Security covers LDAP, 802.1X multi-client authentication, Dynamic ARP Inspection, DHCP Snooping, time-based ACLs, and MAC Authentication Bypass. Approved to IEC 61850-3, IEEE 1613, EN50121-4, NEMA TS2, cUL61010, CE, FCC, and RCM, this switch is the definitive solution for electrical substations, railway infrastructure, oil and gas platforms, and advanced industrial automation across Nordic and Baltic markets.
