Belden Announces the RSP-Smart, a New Addition to its Hirschmann Brand
Neckartenzlingen, Germany - January 15, 2013 - Belden Inc., a global leader in signal transmission solutions for mission-critical applications, has added with the RSP-Smart, an inexpensive variant to the tried and tested family of RSP switches in its Hirschmann product range in the EMEA region. Like the other devices in the family, this managed switch is able to withstand electrostatic discharges, magnetic fields and strong vibrations. It offers six Fast Ethernet Ports instead of eleven, and these are available for twisted pair cable (100 BASE-TX) or equipped with two/four SFP transceivers (100 BASE-FX). All ports support precise time synchronization compliant with IEEE 1588v2. Security mechanisms such as role-based access provide strong protection against network attacks. MRP (Media Redundancy Protocol) and RSTP (Rapid Spanning Tree) redundancy methods ensure high network availability. A switch version is also available which provides support for the PRP (Parallel Redundancy Protocol) and HSR (High-Availability Seamless Redundancy) redundancy methods, ensuring zero “switchover time” and high system productivity. Due to its rugged construction, the RSP-Smart can also be used in challenging environments like those found in machine construction for example. The switch is also certified for applications in the electricity industry, transport or hazardous environments.
