ORing RGS-P9000 Gigabit Ethernet Switch
ORing RGS-P9000 Gigabit Ethernet Switch is a 2-layer modular managed redundant ring Ethernet switch with four slots. This Ethernet switch Ethernet redundancy mechanisms, including O-Ring (recovery time <30ms), MSTP (RSTP/STP compatible), IEC 62439-2 MRP, and ITU-T G.8032 ERPS. The RGS-P9000 switch provides IEEE 1588v2 clock synchronization, SMTP client, SNTP server, Modbus TCP, EtherNet/IP, DoS/DDoS auto-prevention, and LLDP protocol. This switch can be equipped with SWM-20GT-HSR module to support HSR/PRP seamless redundancy, enabling zero-time recovery for mission-critical applications.
The RGS-P9000 Ethernet switch can be centrally managed through Open-Vision, a web-based interface, Telnet, or console (CLI) configuration. This switch operates within a temperature range of -40°C to 85°C and complies with IEC 61850-3 and IEEE 1613 requirements. The product development follows the IEC 62443-4-1 secure development process, and the RGS-P9000 switch is certified to IEC 62443-4-2, ensuring robust cybersecurity for critical infrastructure. This Ethernet switch is ideal for power substation and railway applications.
Reliability and Availability in Substations
The foundation of reliable substation operation rests on three key pillars, ensuring stability and dependability even under harsh conditions.
Error Minimization:
Robust hardware design with comprehensive EMC protection safeguards sensitive electronics in harsh environments. IEC 61850-3 specifies EMC requirements for substation equipment, while IEEE 1613 defines environmental and testing standards for networking devices, covering extreme temperatures, EMI, and mechanical stress.
Rapid Detection:
Digital Diagnostic Monitoring (DDM) is transforming fiber optic maintenance in substations by enhancing traditional SFP monitoring capabilities to deliver comprehensive oversight of transceivers. This proactive system monitors critical parameters in real-time.
Efficient Recovery:
Standard network segments often use RSTP with recovery times of a few seconds, while mission-critical applications require zero-recovery-time protocols like PRP and
HSR. These approaches support scalability with rings and chains, providing tailored resilience for different criticality levels.
Precise Time Synchronization:
IEEE 1588 V2 is essential within a substation to guarantee the synchronized operation of measurement devices linked to the power grid. The IEC 61850-3 Ethernet switches support 2 PTP profiles: IEEE C37.238 and IEC 61850-9-3. The precision of these clocks can range from milliseconds to microseconds, contingent upon the specific application.
