Hirschmann BOBCAT Next-Generation Compact Managed Switches enable real-time communication using Time Sensitive Networking (TSN) on all ports. These compact managed switches allow for expanded bandwidth capabilities by adjusting the tri-speed fiber SFP slots from 1 Gigabit to 2.5 Gigabit, requiring no change to the appliance. The BOBCAT Switches offer enhanced flexibility and interoperability for simple maintenance, future-proof operation, and downward compatibility with existing infrastructure. The Hirschmann BOBCAT Switches also support HiOS software and feature several compelling security elements, including wire-speed Access Control Lists (ACL) and automatic Denial-of-Service (DoS) prevention.
