Hirschmann Switches?

If an Industrial Ethernet switch is required it may be productive to
look at Ruggedcom products. Ruggedcom has a published upper operating
range of +85 C, which we have deployed in outside non-HVAC enclosures in
environments where the outside ambient temperature can reach +49 to +55
C for extended periods. The L2 software is reliable, supporting rapid
spanning tree, and IGMP snooping, among other features. Short and Long
range SFP optics (up to 80 Km) are available that are also spec'd out at
+85 C operating range.

I'm looking for feedback from users of the Hirschmann (Belden)
ethernet switches in a service provider environment.  Private or
public appreciated.
