Futureproof your substation networks with IEC 61850-3 Gigabit switches

Engineered for critical energy applications, Hermes Gigabit Ethernet switches deliver unmatched uptime, and reliability to ensure your network runs flawlessly, even in the harshest conditions.

Tough enough for operational settings but with the features IT has long come to expect, its the Ethernet switch IT and OT can agree on.

IEC 61850-3 is an international standard that sets strict requirements for equipment used in electrical substations, focusing on electromagnetic interference (EMI) immunity and environmental robustness.

The standard requires devices to survive both continuous and transient EMI that occurs in substation environments, along with extreme temperatures, vibration, and electrical interference that would damage regular network equipment. For Ethernet switches, meeting IEC 61850-3 means they can safely operate next to high-voltage equipment and power transformers without failing or losing data.

This certification is essential for because it ensures network equipment won’t break down when the grid needs it most.
