The MSP30/40 switches guarantee all-around network protection and enable communication between physically separated networks. Optional software packages for dynamic unicast routing (UR) and dynamic multicast routing (MR) offer you an attractive cost benefit – "Just pay for what you need." Thanks to Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+) support, terminal equipment can also be powered cost-effectively.



  • Flexible design – deliver on increasing bandwidth demands with up to 28 Gigabit ports; all ports/modules are hot swappable for easy changes with no downtime
  • Simple configuration and diagnosis – thanks to software tools HiDiscovery, HiView, Industrial HiVision or web interface
  • Easily supply more PoE+ power – swap in the MSP Power over Ethernet Plus module to offer 120 more watts of power per module when you need it
  • High-performance capabilities – select up to four 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet (GE) ports or up to two 10 GE ports
  • Increase bandwidth with 28 Gigabit Ethernet ports
    - Reusable modules that can be used on any slot (first slot is reserved for a newly designed and unique 2.5 GE module)
    - Up to four 2.5 GE ports for high availability with media redundancy protocol (MRP) and link aggregation
    - 10 Gigabit module soon available
  • Modular setup with hot swappable module slots and Layer 2/Layer 3 capabilities
  • High-grade metal/aluminum housing for mounting on a DIN rail
  • Optionally extended temperature range from -40°C to +70°C (standard is from 0°C to +60°C)
  • Cost-effective powering of terminal equipment via PoE+ function. The backplane of the switch supports up to 120 watts and additional media modules with external power supply can even increase the total amount of available PoE power
  • Simple configuration and diagnosis using HiDiscovery, HiView, Industrial HiVision or web interface
  • Diversity of standards and approvals

The MSP switches can meet the bandwidth needs of larger industrial networks or networks that may expand their size or distance in the future. With its extensive port options housed in a rugged, yet compact device, the MSP switches are ideal for harsh and space-constrained applications, especially in the transportation, discrete manufacturing, automotive and mining industries.
