Part Number: CGS-2520-24TC
The Cisco® 2520 Connected Grid Switches (CGS 2520) are rugged switches designed for the harsh, rugged environments often found in the energy and utility industries. The Cisco CGS 2520 is designed to support the communications infrastructure needs for the energy delivery infrastructure across the generation, transmission, and distribution sectors. This infrastructure includes utility- and customer-owned energy infrastructure, such as substation applications supporting electrical transmission and distribution, renewable generation, oil and gas, water, distributed generation, co-generation, and trackside operations. The infrastructure also includes communications infrastructure for delivery applications such as transmission pipelines, distribution mains, and service lines for oil and gas and water.
The CGS 2520 uses Cisco IOS® Software, which is the operating system powering millions of Cisco switches and routers worldwide. Cisco IOS Software delivers the benefits of integrated security for NERC/CIP (North American Electric Reliability Corporation/Critical Infrastructure Protection) compliance, quality of service, ease of use and network management to help ensure integrity and priority of operational data and nonoperational data communications.
Primary CGS 2520 features:
● Rugged industrial design and substation compliance: IEC-61850-3 and IEEE 1613 for utility substation environments
● Tools for easy deployment, management, and replacement
● Extensive instrumentation and remote diagnostic capabilities
● Advanced quality of service (QoS) capabilities to support mission-critical substation applications such as SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) and IEC 61850 GOOSE (Generic Object-Oriented Substation Events) messaging
● Comprehensive network security features based on open standards
