HIRSCHMANN RS30-0802O6O6SDAEHC09.1.00 Managed Industrial Switch

HIRSCHMANN RS30-0802O6O6SDAEHC09.1.00 Managed Industrial Switch

The Hirschmann RS30-0802O6O6SDAEHC09.1.00 is a highly robust, fully managed OpenRail Industrial Ethernet Switch.

 Engineered for mission-critical automation systems, this model features a hybrid port density of Fast Ethernet copper ports and Gigabit fiber-optic uplink slots.

 Supported by Hirschmann's advanced HiOS/Classic Switch Software, it offers elite redundancy, security, and diagnostic capabilities for power generation, 

water treatment, transportation, and heavy industrial plants.

Technical Table

Environmental Tolerance Conditions

Built to operate continuously in unforgiving, electrically noisy environments, this switch features high-grade physical hardening:

Operating Temperature: 0°C to +60°C (Standard industrial range)

Storage & Transport Temp: -40°C to +70°C

Relative Humidity: 10% to 95% (Non-condensing)

Conformal Coating: Standard protection against ambient moisture and trace chemical particulates.

Mechanical Strength:

Vibration: IEC 60068-2-6 ($1text{ mm}$ amplitude at $2text{ to }13.2text{ Hz}$; $0.7text{g}$ force up to $100text{ Hz}$).

Shock: IEC 60068-2-27 ($15text{ g}$ force, $11text{ ms}$ duration, half-sine wave).

EMC Immunity: Certified to meet EN 61000-4-x standards for electrostatic discharge (ESD), radio frequency fields, high-energy transients, and lightning surges.

Operating Instructions

Because the RS30-0802O6O6SDAEHC09.1.00 is a managed switch, proper configuration is essential to utilize its features.

1. Initial IP Assignment & Connection

Connect a PC to the RJ45 console port or utilize the Hirschmann HiDiscovery software tool.

HiDiscovery scans the local network via MAC addresses, allowing you to assign a temporary IP address, subnet mask, and gateway to the switch without prior network configurations.

2. Accessing the Configuration Web Interface (GUI)

Open a web browser and type the assigned IP address.

Log in using the default credentials (refer to the physical manual slip for shipping defaults, typically admin).

You will be prompted to change the default password immediately to secure management access (HTTPS/SSH).

3. Activating Ring Redundancy (HIPER-Ring)

To prevent network loops while maintaining ultra-fast backup pathways ($<50text{ ms}$ recovery times):

Configure two dedicated ports as "Ring Ports".

Set one switch in the physical loop as the Ring Manager (Active/RM).

Set all other switches in the loop as standard Clients.

Connect the physical fiber or copper ring lines.

Fault Diagnosis

The RS30 series provides multi-layered troubleshooting diagnostics through hardware LEDs, dry signal contacts, and software monitoring:

Hardware LED Indicators

Power LEDs (P1 & P2): Green indicates healthy input voltage. Red or unlit indicates power failure on that respective redundant line.

Standby/RM LED: Green indicates the switch is acting as the Ring Manager. Off means it is acting as a client.

Fault LED (F):

Solid Red: An active fault condition exists (e.g., power line loss, port link down, temperature warning).

Flashing Red: Internal system diagnostic error or firmware boot failure.

Port-Specific LEDs: Green indicates physical link; flashing indicates active traffic. Yellow shows speed rates (Fast Ethernet vs. Gigabit).

Signaling Contact (Dry Relay Contact)

The 2-pin terminal block on top acts as a physical break-contact relay.

It can be wired directly to an external PLC input or warning lamp. If a pre-configured critical event occurs (like power loss to P1), the relay opens to trigger an industrial alarm.

Software Diagnostics

Syslog & SNMP Traps: Automated messages sent instantly to a central monitoring server.

Port Mirroring: Mirror diagnostic traffic from any active port to a target Wireshark-enabled PC to analyze packet flows.

Related Models of the Same Series (Hirschmann RS30)

The RS30 family shares the same physical form factor and managed firmware codebase but differs in port configurations:

RS30-0802O6O6SDAEHC09.1.00: 8 Fast RJ45 + 2 Gigabit SFP ports (Standard Temp).

RS30-0802O6O6SDAEEECH9.1.00: Extended Environmental Character (EEC) model rated for extreme climates ($-40^{circ}text{C}text{ to }+70^{circ}text{C}$).

RS30-1602O6O6SDAEHC09.1.00: High-density version containing 16 Fast RJ45 + 2 Gigabit SFP ports.

RS20 Series: Sister series featuring identical management features, but with only Fast Ethernet ports (no Gigabit uplinks).

Storage Conditions

To preserve internal components and avoid oxidation of sensitive copper terminals during long-term storage:

Temperature Range: Keep strictly between $-40^{circ}text{C}$ and $+70^{circ}text{C}$.

Humidity Control: Maximum $95%$ relative humidity. Avoid locations prone to rapid temperature swings that cause dew-point condensation.

Environmental Protection: Keep stored in its original anti-static plastic packaging within a dust-free box. Avoid storing near corrosive chemical storage or vibration-heavy facility zones.
