The Hirschmann RS2-TX is a robust and reliable unmanaged Ethernet switch designed to facilitate efficient data communication in industrial settings. This switch is part of the RS2 Series and is engineered to support both Ethernet 10 Mbit/s and Fast Ethernet 100 Mbit/s, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of network demands.

Equipped with eight 10/100Base-TX ports, the RS2-TX allows for the connection of multiple devices or network segments, making it an ideal solution for expanding your network infrastructure. The ports feature auto-crossing, auto-negotiation, and auto-polarity capabilities, which simplify installation and maintenance by automatically configuring the switch for the correct transmit and receive pins, regardless of cable type.

The RS2-TX operates using a store-and-forward switching mode, ensuring that data packets are checked for validity before being forwarded. This minimises the transmission of erroneous or fragmented data across the network. Additionally, the switch can learn up to 1,000 MAC addresses, which is essential for managing traffic in networks with multiple connected devices.

Designed for durability, the RS2-TX is housed in a compact and sturdy metal casing that can be easily mounted on a standard DIN rail. Its operating temperature range of 0 ºC to +60 ºC and storage temperature range of -20 ºC to +80 ºC make it suitable for a variety of industrial environments. The switch also features LED indicators for power, link status, data, and errors, providing at-a-glance diagnostics that can help prevent downtime.

For applications that require uninterrupted power supply, the RS2-TX supports redundant power inputs, ensuring continuous operation even if one power source fails. The switch is also equipped with a ground connection via a separate screw, enhancing its overall electrical safety.

The Hirschmann RS2-TX is a practical and efficient solution for industrial networks requiring an unmanaged switch that delivers reliable performance without the need for complex configuration. Its straightforward functionality and robust design make it a valuable addition to any industrial Ethernet system.
