Allocate Sixteen Gigabit-Capable Copper Links with Hirschmann BRS40-00169999-STCY99HHSESXX.X.XX, the BRS40-16TX BOBCAT Managed Industrial Ethernet Switch
The full code Hirschmann BRS40-00169999-STCY99HHSESXX.X.XX identifies Hirschmann BRS40-16TX, part number 942170063. Its sixteen 10/100/1000BASE-TX RJ45 ports provide an all-copper, Gigabit-capable layout in a fanless DIN rail device. It is a configuration to evaluate when a cabinet connection schedule has grown beyond a smaller twelve-port switch and still requires a managed network device.
Start with the complete sixteen-port schedule
Assign local equipment, upstream connections and reserved capacity before placing the order. A spare socket count by itself does not explain how traffic reaches the rest of the system. Record link purpose and required speed next to each port, and confirm the endpoint and installed cabling support the intended Ethernet connection.

Account for the wider device body
The standard-temperature model uses a 109 × 138 × 115 mm PC-ABS housing with IP30 protection. Allow room for sixteen RJ45 connections, supply wiring and access during maintenance. The listed 14 W consumption helps with the cabinet power review. Check enclosure conditions against the 0 to +60 °C operating range at the switch location.
Keep a useful commissioning package
Retain the current management settings, firmware expectations and network drawing when procuring a replacement. Confirm the full device code rather than assuming any sixteen-port BOBCAT is equivalent. This version has copper ports throughout; the catalog arrangement does not describe fiber uplinks or PoE output. Applications needing those features require a separately checked configuration.
Confirm the requested supply scope
For HKXY, provide BRS40-00169999-STCY99HHSESXX.X.XX, part 942170063, quantity, destination and the planned delivery date. Add the existing label and configuration requirements for maintenance orders. Ask the offer to identify the supplied version, accessory scope and documents, with availability confirmed for the requested quantity.
