RSPM20-8TX-EEC – Extended Temp 8x RJ45 Expansion Module by Hirschmann

The Hirschmann RSPM20-8TX-EEC is an extended temperature Fast Ethernet media module providing eight 10/100BASE-TX RJ45 copper ports for RSPE series switch expansion, operating from -40 to +70°C with ATEX Zone 2, ISA Class 1 Div. 2, IEC 61850-3, IEEE 1613, and EN50121-4 approvals. Powered via the host RSPE32 or RSPE37 switch at just 4 W, it expands total port count to 28 copper Fast Ethernet ports for hazardous, substation, and transportation networking. Available from Recab, your Nordic partner for Hirschmann industrial switch solutions.
Description
The Hirschmann RSPM20-8TX-EEC is a hardened extended temperature copper Fast Ethernet media module from Hirschmann’s RSPM expansion series, offering eight 10/100BASE-TX RJ45 ports for straightforward copper port expansion of RSPE series switches from 12 to a maximum of 28 ports. Like the RSPM20-8SFP, it operates across a full extended temperature range of -40 to +70°C with IEC 60068-2-2 dry heat validation at +85°C, and carries ATEX II 3G Ex na IIC T4 Gc and ISA-12.12.01 Class 1 Div. 2 Group A-D hazardous location certification for deployment in gas-atmosphere classified areas. IEC 61850-3 and IEEE 1613 substation approvals and EN50121-4 transportation certification make it equally applicable to electrical substations and railway trackside installations. Powered directly via the host RSPE32 or RSPE37 switch with an extremely low consumption of just 4 W, this module adds no meaningful thermal or power burden to the host system. IEC 60068-2-6 vibration and IEC 60068-2-27 shock compliance confirm mechanical robustness for industrial cabinet environments, while approvals spanning CE, FCC, RCM, EN 61131, UL61010, and EN 60950 ensure broad global compliance. The RSPM20-8TX-EEC is the practical choice for engineers expanding RSPE-based copper networks in substations, rail cabinets, hazardous process areas, and cold-climate outdoor installations across Nordic and Baltic industrial markets. Available from Recab, your Nordic partner for Hirschmann industrial switch solutions.
Features
  • Eight 10/100BASE-TX RJ45 ports provide simple plug-and-expand copper Fast Ethernet port addition to RSPE switches.
  • Extended operating range of -40 to +70°C with +85°C dry heat validation suits harsh industrial and outdoor environments.
  • ATEX II 3G and ISA Class 1 Div. 2 certification permits safe deployment in gas-hazard classified industrial areas.
  • IEC 61850-3, IEEE 1613, and EN50121-4 approvals confirm suitability for substation and railway applications.
  • Extremely low 4 W power consumption drawn from the host switch adds minimal thermal load to the system.
  • Expands RSPE base switches to a maximum of 28 copper Fast Ethernet ports via simple media module bay installation.
