Moxa released its RKS-G4028 Series Gigabit Ethernet managed switches which can serve as a building blocks in power substations with up to 28 Gigabit ports to fulfill future scalability requirements, modular interfaces for flexible connector combinations, certified IEC 62443-4-2 enterprise-grade cybersecurity, and compliance with IEC 61850-3 high EMC immunity requirements.

Available in 22 designs, RKS-G4028 Series switches have options that include: Layer 3 switching functionality, 24 VDC, 48 VDC, or 110/220 VDC/VAC dual isolated redundant power supplies, and PoE++ support for powering 90W field devices.

In addition to utilities, RKS-G4028 switches extend themselves to railway workloads due to their compliance with EN 50121-4 performance criteria for signaling and telecommunications equipment.

Plus, by supporting Turbo Ring and Turbo Chain (recovery time < 20 ms @ 250 switches), and STP/RSTP/MSTP for network redundancy, combined with an operating temperature range of -40 to +75° C, RKS-G4028 switches can work in demanding factory automation use cases. Hardware-based IEEE 1588 PTP (Precision Time Protocol) achieves clock accuracy in the sub-microsecond range, helping IT professionals unleash new possibilities in industrial measurement and SCADA control.

Moxa developed RKS-G4028 switches according to IEC 62443-4-1 lifecycle guidelines to ensure compliance to the IEC 62443-4-2 cybersecurity international standard. IEC 62443-4-2 describes the capabilities that industrial control system components must feature including account, identifier and authenticator management; password-based authentication; public key authentication; use control; data integrity and confidentiality; as well as backup for resource availability.

Moxa launched its RKS-G4028 Series Gigabit Ethernet managed switches with up to 28 Gigabit ports.


As a result of this certification, RKS-G4028 switches improve the security posture of industrial networks and provide deep visibility into high-risk environments.
