Compatible Replacement & Equivalent Models
When the RS20-1600T1T1SDAEHH09.0.00 is discontinued or lead times are extended, the following models offer functional equivalence or direct drop-in replacement potential:
- Hirschmann RS20-1600M2M2SDAEHH09.0.00 — Same RS20 platform, fiber uplink variant; suitable when fiber backbone is required.
- Hirschmann RSP20-1600T1T1SDAEHH09.0.00 — RSP20 series with enhanced power input range; backward-compatible form factor.
- Hirschmann MICE MS20-1600T1T1SDAEHH09.0.00 — Next-generation MS20 platform; expanded VLAN and QoS features, same DIN rail footprint.
- Siemens SCALANCE X208 — 8-port managed alternative; suitable for smaller topologies with PROFINET requirements.
- Moxa EDS-516A-SS-SC — 16-port managed switch with similar redundancy support; compatible in non-Hirschmann ecosystems.
Note: Always verify firmware compatibility, port count, and redundancy protocol support before substituting. Contact Konmask for pre-sales compatibility assessment.
Why Choose the Original Model
- Proven HIPER-Ring redundancy — sub-300 ms failover ensures continuous process operation in ring topologies.
- Hirschmann HiOS ecosystem — seamless integration with existing Hirschmann network management infrastructure (HiVision, Industrial HiVision).
- Wide power input range — dual redundant 12–24 VDC inputs eliminate single points of failure in power supply design.
- Compact DIN rail form factor — fits standard control cabinet layouts without additional mounting hardware.
- Long-term availability — Konmask maintains stock of legacy Hirschmann RS20 series to support installed base maintenance.

Selection Guide
Use the following criteria to confirm the RS20-1600T1T1SDAEHH09.0.00 is the right model — or to identify the best alternative:
- Port count needed: 16 copper RJ45 ports → RS20-1600 series ✓ | Fewer ports → consider RS20-0800 series
- Uplink media: Copper uplink → T1T1 suffix ✓ | Fiber uplink → select M2M2 or SS-SC suffix variant
- Redundancy protocol: MRP/HIPER-Ring required → RS20 ✓ | PROFINET MRP only → consider SCALANCE X series
- Power supply: 24 VDC standard panel → RS20 ✓ | 110/230 VAC only → add external PSU or select RSP20 with AC input
- Temperature range: 0–60 °C standard → RS20 ✓ | −40 °C extended → select RS20-HV or MICE MS20 extended-temp variant
- Certifications required: CE + UL → RS20 ✓ | DNV/GL marine → confirm suffix code with Konmask

Replacement & Compatibility FAQ
Q: Is the RS20-1600T1T1SDAEHH09.0.00 still in production?
A: Hirschmann has transitioned newer projects to the MS20/RSP20 platform. The RS20 series remains available as a spare/replacement part. Konmask maintains stock to support installed-base maintenance.
Q: Can I replace an RS20 with an MS20 without reconfiguring the network?
A: The MS20 shares the same DIN rail footprint and HiOS firmware base, but configuration migration is required. Konmask can provide migration support documentation upon request.
Q: Does this switch support PROFINET?
A: The RS20 supports PROFINET-compatible Ethernet transport. For full PROFINET IO device certification, verify the specific firmware version with Hirschmann or contact Konmask.
Q: What is the difference between T1T1 and M2M2 suffix?
A: T1T1 denotes copper (10/100BASE-TX) uplink ports; M2M2 denotes multimode fiber (100BASE-FX) uplink ports. Choose based on your backbone cabling infrastructure.
Q: Can Konmask provide a test report before shipment?
A: Yes. Power-on test reports and inspection photos are available upon request for all RS20 units.
