BRS32-12TX-EEC – Extended Temp PoE+ TSN Switch by Hirschmann, a Belden Brand

The Hirschmann BRS32-12TX-EEC is a fanless, DIN Rail-mounted managed industrial Ethernet switch from the BOBCAT series, combining 8x PoE+ Fast Ethernet ports with a 240 W total PoE budget, 4x Gigabit RJ45, and dual Gigabit TX uplinks, all rated for operation from -40 to +70°C in a robust metal housing. Supporting TSN 802.1Qbv, PROFINET, and HIPER-Ring redundancy, it is ideal for harsh outdoor and transportation PoE+ deployments. Available from Recab, your Nordic partner for Hirschmann managed industrial switch solutions.

Overview

The Hirschmann BRS32-12TX-EEC extends the BOBCAT PoE+ managed switch range to the most demanding environmental conditions, combining IEEE 802.3at PoE+ inline power capability with an Extended Environmental Class operating range of -40 to +70°C and a robust metal housing for extreme climate and outdoor industrial deployments. It delivers 12 ports in total: 8x 10/100BASE-TX RJ45 PoE+ access ports with up to 240 W total power budget, 4x 10/100/1000BASE-TX RJ45 Gigabit ports, and dual Gigabit TX uplinks — operating from a 48/54 VDC PoE supply voltage with a maximum system consumption of 250 W. The metal DIN Rail housing and extended temperature rating make the BRS32-12TX-EEC the natural choice for engineers deploying PoE-powered devices — such as outdoor IP cameras, industrial wireless access points, and remote I/O terminals — in Nordic or Arctic industrial sites, transportation infrastructure, and outdoor enclosures where standard temperature ratings would be insufficient. TSN 802.1Qbv on interfaces 1/1 to 1/3 enables deterministic real-time Ethernet for time-sensitive control systems, while PROFINET, EtherNet/IP, Modbus TCP, and IEC 61850 provide full industrial protocol coverage. PoE Fast Startup and manual power management allow precise sequenced device powering. Redundancy features include HIPER-Ring, MRP (IEC 62439-2), RSTP, and Link Aggregation with LACP. Security includes 802.1X, RADIUS, Secure Boot, and signed firmware. Available from Recab, your Nordic partner for Hirschmann managed industrial switch solutions.
