The Hirschmann MSP30-28-3A-CE, configurator code MSP30-24040SCZ9MRHHE3A, is a modular Gigabit Ethernet industrial DIN rail switch from the MSP30 family running HiOS Layer 3 Advanced software, aimed at automation engineers and network architects who need full dynamic routing capability integrated with industrial switching and redundancy in a compact fanless device. Manufactured by Hirschmann, a Belden brand, the MSP30-28-3A-CE provides 24 Fast Ethernet ports and four Gigabit Ethernet uplinks, consuming just 18 W from 24 V DC and operating between 0 °C and +60 °C within a 391 x 148 x 142 mm chassis. Layer 3 features include OSPFv2, RIPv1/v2, static unicast routing with ECMP, full wire-speed routing, Proxy ARP, ICMP Router Discovery, IP/UDP Helper, and loopback interfaces, all across VLAN-based and port-based router interfaces. VRRP with HiVRRP enhancements and tracking provides robust gateway redundancy, while multicast routing covers DVMRP, PIM-DM, PIM-SM/SSM, and IGMP proxy. Switching capabilities include IGMP Snooping per VLAN v1/v2/v3, DiffServ classification and policing, QoS to 802.1D/p, Jumbo Frames, Voice VLAN, and storm protection. Redundancy is addressed by HIPER-Ring as ring switch and over link aggregation, MRP per IEC 62439-2 as both client and manager, RSTP, MSTP, LACP, Sub Ring Manager, and redundant network coupling. Security includes 802.1X, RADIUS, TACACS+, DHCP Snooping, Dynamic ARP Inspection, IP Source Guard, LDAP, and time-based ACLs. Industrial profiles cover PROFINET, EtherNet/IP, Modbus TCP, and IEC 61850, and PTPv2 Boundary and Transparent Clocks are supported. Certified CE, FCC, EN 60950, and NEMA TS2, the MSP30-28-3A-CE suits process automation, power generation, and transport infrastructure requiring Layer 3 routing.
