Robustel MG460 Switch
460-Switch compliant with IEC 61162-460 and IACS UR E27, Gigabit Managed Switch for Maritime Systems.
COMING SOON
The MG460 Switch is a maritime-grade, managed Gigabit Ethernet switch built for ship-wide deployment—from bridge and engine room networks to cargo and accommodation systems. Fully compliant with IEC 61162-460 Edition 3 (2024), IEC 60945 Edition 4, and IACS UR E10, it supports modern vessel network requirements with flow-based bandwidth management, traffic prioritisation, and redundancy designed for operational continuity at sea.
As part of the Robustel MG460 product family (Gateway, Forwarder, Switch), the MG460 Switch provides the Layer 2+ switching foundation for complete, cyber-secured 460-network architectures. It’s engineered to help maritime OEMs, integrators, and vessel IT teams build compliant network segmentation and predictable performance across critical onboard systems.
For deployment flexibility, the MG460 Switch delivers 8× Gigabit RJ45 ports plus 2× SFP slots for fiber or copper uplinks, with full wire-speed switching and robust Layer 2+ features including VLAN, QoS, IGMP snooping, and RSTP/MSTP. Mission-critical reliability is reinforced with dual redundant DC power inputs, an alarm relay output for system integration, and a USB-C console port for configuration and diagnostics—backed by management access via Web UI, CLI, and SNMP in a rugged design built for harsh maritime environments.
Full Gigabit Performance
The MG460 Switch provides true Gigabit Ethernet (1000 Mbps) on all copper and fiber ports. This delivers the bandwidth required for demanding maritime applications including INS, ECDIS, RADAR, VDR, CCTV and other on-board marine systems.
Purpose-Built Architecture
The MG460 Switch is a dedicated Layer 2+ switch with a focused design for optimised switching performance, simpler configuration, and cost-effective deployment.
Marine Approved Hardware Design
Built to IACS UR E10 and IEC 60945 ed. 4 requirements environmental testing (temperature, humidity, vibration), EMC immunity, and electrical safety for maritime installations.
Complete Product Family
Combine the MG460 Gateway, MG460 Forwarder & the MG460 Switch to create a network architecture that aligns with IEC 61162-460 device roles and IACS UR E26 network segmentation requirements.
INTERFACES
8x LAN, 2x SFP, 1x USB-C
Example MG460 Switch Use Cases
Engine Room Automation
Link propulsion controls, alarm systems, and monitoring equipment in the machinery space. Dual redundant power inputs ensure operation during power distribution faults.
Bridge Navigation Network
Connect ECDIS, RADAR, GPS, AIS, and conning displays in a single managed segment with QoS prioritisation for navigation-critical data and RSTP redundancy for failover protection.
Maritime CCTV & Security
Aggregate IP camera feeds from multiple decks. IGMP snooping optimises multicast video streams while SFP fiber uplinks carry traffic to the central VMS without bottlenecks.
