Planning Sixteen Copper Device Links and Four Optical Routes with Hirschmann BRS40-0020OOOO-STCY99HHSESXX.X.XX BOBCAT Managed Ethernet Switch
Hirschmann BRS40-0020OOOO-STCY99HHSESXX.X.XX identifies Type BRS40-16TX/4SFP, part number 942170065, in the Hirschmann BOBCAT range. Sixteen Gigabit-capable copper connections and four removable optical positions give this configuration a distinct role in a populated industrial cabinet. Each copper interface supports 10/100/1000BASE-TX, while the SFP positions support 100/1000 Mbit/s modules. The complete device reference should therefore be accompanied by a separate list of the optics required for the installation.
Prepare an optical schedule before requesting a price
Identify the fiber medium, wavelength, connector, route loss and opposite interface for each of the four SFP positions. A common switch model does not make all transceivers interchangeable. Ask the quotation to state supported module references and quantities explicitly, including any positions intended to remain unpopulated. This makes the accessory scope visible before a purchase order is released.

What does the twenty-port count include?
The count includes sixteen RJ45 ports and four SFP slots, not twenty copper sockets plus four extra uplinks. Reserve the actual connections required for local equipment, links to other switches and future servicing. Supported Gigabit interfaces do not guarantee a particular application throughput; traffic patterns, endpoint capabilities and the selected network configuration still need engineering review.
Keep a usable record of the installed network
Label cables and optics against an approved port map, retain the accepted configuration and record the delivered device identity. The source lists USB-C for local management and device replacement. Confirm the applicable tools and procedure from current documentation before commissioning. A documented installation is easier to reproduce later than an order based only on a shared product photograph.
Enquire with HKXY
For this twenty-port configuration, send HKXY the full order reference, quantity, destination and proposed SFP schedule. Identify required documentation and delivery timing so the device and accessory scope can be confirmed in the quotation.
