Innovative Standardized 
Redundancy Methods Such 
as PRP (Parallel Redundancy 
Protocol) and HSR (High-Avail-
ability Seamless Redundancy),  
Which are Based on IEC 62439  
and Offer a Switchover Time 
of Zero Seconds, Ensure Com-
pletely Uninterrupted Data 
Communication. In Addition, 
the RSP-Smart Offers Com-
prehensive Security Mecha-
nisms as well as Precise Time 
Synchronization Compliant 
with IEEE 1588v2.
•  Uninterrupted data communication  
ensures high productivity of machines  
and systems
•  Cost-effective solution for maximum 
availability
•  Precise time synchronization allows  
applications to comply with stringent  
real-time requirements
Today's highly automated manufacturing  
processes would be unimaginable without  
bits and bytes. High-availability networks 
therefore play a central role in terms of pro- 
ductivity. With the introduction of the new 
RSP-Smart from Hirschmann™, an economical  
variant of the proven RSP family is now  
available that gives you all you need when  
it comes to performance. As well as with-
standing electrostatic discharges, magnetic 
fields and strong vibrations, this robust managed  
Fast Ethernet switch enables uninterrupted 
data communication even in case of a fault 
or failure. In other words, it provides you with 
permanent access to machines and systems. 
Precise synchronization of controls and other 
automation components, as well as reliable 
protection against network attacks, round  
off the functional scope of the RSP-Smart.
Applications
The RSP-Smart can be used anywhere where 
maximum network availability is demanded – 
even under extreme environmental conditions. 
This is because it enables uninterrupted data 
communication even in the event of a fault  
or failure.
In the electricity industry, for example, this 
switch guarantees a reliable power supply to 
customers, even in case of a serious lightning 
strike. And in tunnels where the RSP-Smart is 
installed, operators can be certain that smoke 
extraction systems will be reliably activated in 
the event of fire.
The RSP-Smart can be an important part of 
highly available and cost-effective solutions  
in many other application areas too, such  
as in mechanical engineering or hazardous 
environments.
Your Benefits
The RSP-Smart offers you an affordable  
alternative to the proven RSP switches. Like  
its "big brother", the RSP-Smart offers innova-
tive redundancy methods with zero switchover  
times, thus ensuring a maximum level of stability  
for your production processes. Extensive  
security mechanisms protect your network  
against attacks. Such attacks now also represent  
an increasing threat to data communication 
within the automation area. Last but not least, 
thanks to precise time synchronization, the 
RSP-Smart can likewise be used to reliably 
network applications with stringent real-time 
requirements.

RSP-Smart from 
Hirschmann™
The functional scope of the new 
RSP-Smart from Hirschmann™ 
has been designed with one critical 
aspect in mind – maximum network 
availability. This Industrial Ethernet  
switch enables cost-effective solutions  
for smooth production processes 
– even in challenging environments 
such as transformer stations.
