- Cost-optimized design providing exceptional functionality including full Gigabit Ethernet, high port count, and advanced security.
- Essential features, plus high reliability delivering “set it and forget it” capability to simplify maintenance and lower total cost of ownership.
Running on LEMUR switches, HiEOS offers essential Layer 2 managed switching capabilities – like port control, remote diagnostics and PoE/PoE+ options. Delivering exceptional performance, HiEOS provides a rich feature set including:
- Enhanced security — including SSHv2 and multiple privilege levels — delivering high reliability.
- Redundancy protocols including Ethernet Ring Protection Switching (ERPS)*, Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) and Media Redundancy Protocol (MRP) Client.
- Interfaces including command-line interface (CLI), Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), JavaScript Object Notation Remote Procedure Call (JSON-RPC) and the very user-friendly Hirschmann web interface.
The LEMUR Lite Managed Switch Family ensures durability and reliability for many industrial applications, including manufacturing, machine building, food and beverage, automotive, and consumer packaged goods, along with traffic control systems, train stations and airports.
