Westermo RedFox-5728-E-F16G-T12G-HVHV Managed Ethernet Switch

RedFox-5728 takes communication reliability for substations to a new level. We know that in critical substation automation applications, even the loss of a single piece of data can disturb the operations, and that is why RedFox-5728 brings the highest reliability to your network. Withstanding the toughest environmental conditions, including the high EMI levels derived from load switching and lightning strikes and extreme ambient temperatures, RedFox-5728 ensures 100% uptime, no matter what.

IEC 61850-3 and IEEE 1613 standards define the requirements and test levels for networking devices. They specify two different device reliability classes: Class 1 devices, which allow for communication errors; and Class 2 devices, which do not allow loss of a single transmission package even during the highest electro magnetic disturbances (EMI). RedFox-5728 meets or exceeds all test levels for Class 2 fulfilment, attaining KEMA type test gold certification, ensuring zero down-time, communication losses, delays or errors.
