KSwitch R20

The KSwitch R20 Ethernet switch features between 16 and 28 Ethernet ports and supports both the Precision Time Protocol (PTP) and Power over Ethernet (PoE).
Its modular design offers maximum flexibility regarding the number of individually required Ethernet ports and performance, ranging from Fast Ethernet to 10 GbE. Developed and manufactured in Europe, the KSwitch R20 is equipped with robust push-pull M12 connectors, ensuring reliable data transmission even under challenging conditions, such as in public transportation, where vibrations, shocks, extreme temperatures, or temperature fluctuations may occur.
The highly scalable and PTP-capable (Precision Time Protocol) KSwitch R20 enables TSN (Time Sensitive Networking) applications and the flexible, modular use of up to 28 Power-over-Ethernet ports with 100 Mbit/s / 1 / 2.5 / 5 / 10 GBit/s and thus an individually scalable bandwidth utilization of up to 64 Gbps.

Very robust design

The fanless Ethernet switch was developed in compliance with EN50155, i.e. suitable for railway applications, and offers particularly high shock and vibration resistance. With its extremely robust design and the possibility of operation in an extended temperature range between -40 °C and +70 °C (+85 °C for a maximum of 10 minutes), the fanless KSwitch R20 is therefore suitable for particularly demanding applications in the railway environment, such as rolling stock. Increasing network security requirements are already taken into account in the design with secure configuration management via SSH, an encrypted configuration dongle and a secure operating system.
