This series of rack-mounted Ethernet Layer 2 switches deliver utility-grade performance, reliability, and field-proven MTBF (Mean Time Between Failures) to lower operating expenses.
Designed as a utility-grade Gigabit Ethernet 1U rack switch with the option to add IEEE 1588 Precision Time Protocol (PTP) Grandmaster functionality, the RUGGEDCOM RSG2488 delivers maximum network availability and cost savings over its entire lifecycle.
Innovative, flexible, and rugged rated
The RUGGEDCOM RSG2488 is a utility-grade, non-blocking Layer 2 Ethernet rack-mountable switch with 28 Gigabit ports and hot-swappable dual-redundant power supplies.
It features an innovative design to reduce rack space requirements, minimize repair time, and eliminate routine maintenance. The RUGGEDCOM RSG2488 also eliminates the need for separate timing cabling with the help of the PTP module. This module allows the RUGGEDCOM RSG2488 to integrate IEEE1588 Precision Time Protocol (PTP) Grandmaster Clock functionality.
Its modular flexibility provides up to 28 non-blocking ports that can be configured as 10/100/1000TX copper, 100FX or 1000SX fiber. A 1U form factor and vertical loading design provides users with the flexibility and simplicity needed to efficiently implement, maintain and evolve a broadband local area network.
Running on the Rugged Operating System (ROS®), it also offers precision timing, timing conversion, universal power supply options as well as cybersecurity and management tools.
