What is an OCF file?

OCF files mostly belong to Hirschmann HiVision. OCF files serve multiple specialized roles. The primary use is as a network switch configuration file used with the Hirschmann Industrial HiVision Configuration Tool. This file stores switch settings in an XML format and is key for managing network switch operations.
Other useful applications include:
  • CAD Drawing Files: These files can hold design data used in computer‑aided design work, often associated with solutions from Open Cascade.
  • Camera Firmware: Some OCF files are used as firmware for Olympus cameras, managed via software like Olympus DSS Pro provided by SNIPAC.

  • FilExt.com note: If you have an OCF file, identify its source. Use the appropriate tool: for switch configuration, open it with the Hirschmann Industrial HiVision tool (Belden), for CAD drawings use compatible CAD software, and for firmware updates follow your camera manufacturer’s instructions.

    How do you open OCF files?

    You need a suitable software like Hirschmann HiVision to open an OCF file. Without proper software you will receive a Windows message "How do you want to open this file?" or "Windows cannot open this file" or a similar Mac/iPhone/Android alert. If you cannot open your OCF file correctly, try to right-click or long-press the file. Then click "Open with" and choose an application. You can also display a OCF file directly in the browser:. Just drag the file onto this browser window and drop it.
