Hirschmann Industrial Ethernet Switch | BRS20-1000M2M2-STCZ9HHSPS | 10-Port Fast Ethernet Managed
1. Product Overview
The Hirschmann (Germany, now part of Belden Inc.) BRS20 series BOBCAT compact managed industrial Ethernet switch, model BRS20-1000M2M2-STCZ9HHSPS, is a next-generation Layer 2 managed industrial Ethernet switch from Hirschmann designed for compact networking needs in industrial automation field environments. Engineered for complex electromagnetic environments, wide temperature operation, and high reliability requirements in industrial field sites, it is widely used in manufacturing, power and energy, petrochemical, metallurgy, water treatment, rail transit, ports and airports, intelligent transportation, and other industrial automation scenarios, making it an ideal device for industrial edge network access layer and field device layer networking.
The BRS20-1000M2M2-STCZ9HHSPS is equipped with 10 x 10/100BASE-TX RJ45 copper ports, all twisted-pair cable ports supporting 10Mbit/s and 100Mbit/s auto-sensing. Each port features auto-negotiation, auto MDI/MDI-X (auto crossover), and auto polarity detection, eliminating the need to distinguish between straight-through and crossover cables for true plug-and-play operation, greatly simplifying field installation and maintenance. The 10 ports can directly connect PLCs, DCS, HMIs, industrial computers, servo drives, VFDs, sensor gateways, IP cameras, wireless APs, and other industrial field devices for industrial Ethernet field access and data exchange.
This switch adopts store-and-forward switching mode, receiving and performing CRC check on each complete data packet before forwarding, effectively filtering error frames and collision frames to ensure data transmission integrity and reliability, suitable for industrial control networks with high data accuracy requirements. Backplane bandwidth and packet forwarding rate meet 10-port Fast Ethernet full wire-speed non-blocking switching requirements, ensuring no packet loss or degradation when all ports operate simultaneously.
As a Layer 2 managed switch, the BRS20-1000M2M2-STCZ9HHSPS provides comprehensive network management and O&M functions, supporting configuration and management via Web browser, Telnet, SSH, SNMP, and other methods. It supports VLAN partitioning, QoS quality of service, port mirroring, link aggregation, IGMP Snooping, RSTP/MSTP spanning tree protocol, ring network redundancy, and other industrial-grade network functions, meeting industrial field requirements for network isolation, traffic prioritization, fault self-healing, and redundant reliability. Specific software function specifications and versions are subject to Hirschmann official data sheet; Contact via email for confirmation.
In terms of power design, the BRS20 series adopts industrial-grade wide-range power input design with dual power supply redundancy (referencing same-series specifications; specific input range and redundancy configuration subject to actual model suffix, Contact via email for confirmation). When one power supply fails, it automatically switches to the other, ensuring continuous and stable switch operation, meeting industrial field requirements for power supply reliability. The power input features reverse polarity protection and overvoltage protection, adapting to complex power supply environments in industrial sites. Low power consumption (approximately 7-8W referencing same series) with minimal heat generation.
This switch adopts fanless design, dissipating heat naturally through the metal enclosure with no rotating parts, eliminating downtime risk from fan failure while reducing operating noise and maintenance requirements, suitable for long-term stable operation in harsh industrial environments with dust, oil, and vibration. The enclosure is made of industrial-grade metal with good electromagnetic shielding and anti-vibration/anti-shock capabilities, passing strict industrial-grade EMC electromagnetic compatibility tests, and can operate stably in strong electromagnetic interference environments (near VFDs, motors, welding machines).
Mounting is standard DIN rail (35mm) snap-on mounting, directly installable on standard DIN rails in industrial control cabinets, with optional panel mount accessories available (Contact via email). Compact dimensions (approximately 35mm(W) × 138mm(H) × 121mm(D) referencing same series) and light weight (approximately 246g referencing same series) save control cabinet space, suitable for deployment in space-constrained field junction boxes and small control cabinets. The front panel is equipped with LED status indicators that display power status, port link/activity status, data transmission rate, alarm status, etc. in real time, allowing field maintenance personnel to quickly assess device operating status.
In terms of environmental adaptability, the standard temperature version (HH suffix) has an operating temperature range of 0°C to +60°C, with a wider storage/transport temperature range (Contact via email for confirmation, reference -40°C to +85°C), relative humidity 10% to 95% (non-condensing), adapting to temperature and humidity conditions of most industrial sites. Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) is as high as approximately 98.8 years (calculated per MIL-HDBK-217F standard, referencing same-series specifications), reflecting extremely high reliability and long-term operational stability. Protection degree is IP20 (referencing same-series industrial switches), suitable for installation inside control cabinets.
Note: The specific meanings of the codes in this model's suffix STCZ9HHSPS (STC software version/function configuration, Z9 power type, HH temperature range, SPS configuration code) are not fully clarified in public 资料. Some parameters above reference general specifications of the same BRS20 series models.

Q3: How many ports does BRS20-1000M2M2-STCZ9HHSPS have? Does it support fiber ports? How to connect fiber?
A: The BRS20-1000M2M2-STCZ9HHSPS is equipped with 10 x 10/100BASE-TX RJ45 copper ports, all twisted-pair cable ports, and does not support fiber ports ("1000" in the model means 10 copper ports + 0 fiber ports).
Port details:
- Port count: 10
- Port type: 10/100BASE-TX, RJ45 connector
- Transmission medium: Twisted pair (Cat5/Cat5e/Cat6 or higher)

No fiber port explanation: This model is an all-copper port configuration with no SFP fiber port slots, so fiber modules cannot be directly inserted. If your application requires fiber connection (such as long-distance transmission, strong electromagnetic interference environment, electrical isolation needs), the following solutions are available:
Solution 1: Select BRS20 series model with fiber ports
- BRS20 series offers configuration versions with fiber ports (such as BRS20-0802... or BRS20-1604..., etc., specific models Contact via email)
- Fiber ports are usually SFP slots, supporting Fast Ethernet or Gigabit SFP transceivers
- Single-mode (long distance) or multi-mode (short distance) transceivers selectable based on transmission distance
Solution 2: Use external fiber media converter
- Connect an industrial-grade fiber media converter to the RJ45 copper port of BRS20-1000M2M2
- The fiber media converter converts electrical signals to optical signals for transmission via fiber
- Advantages: No need to replace the switch, lower cost
- Disadvantages: Adds extra equipment and failure points, occupies cabinet space
Solution 3: Use upstream switch with fiber ports for aggregation
- Use BRS20-1000M2M2 all-copper switch at the field layer to connect terminal devices
- Use a switch with fiber ports at the aggregation layer (such as Hirschmann RS30/RS40 or RSB20 series)
- BRS20 uplinks to the aggregation switch via copper port, aggregation switch uplinks to core layer via fiber
Fiber connection precautions:
- If selecting a model with fiber ports, choose appropriate SFP transceivers based on transmission distance and environment (single-mode/multi-mode, wavelength, transmission distance)
- Fiber type must match the transceiver (single-mode fiber with single-mode module, multi-mode fiber with multi-mode module)
- Common fiber connector types are LC (SFP module) or SC, must match fiber patch cords
- Industrial field fiber installation should use industrial-grade fiber optic cables, pay attention to bending radius and protection
