Siemens RUGGEDCOM RS900G

Introduction
1
The RUGGEDCOM RS900G is an industrially hardened, fully managed Ethernet switch
providing dual fiber optical Gigabit Ethernet ports and eight Fast Ethernet copper
ports.
Designed to operate reliably in harsh industrial environments, the RUGGEDCOM
RS900G provides a high level of immunity to electromagnetic interference and heavy
electrical surges typical of environments found in electric utility substations, factory
floors or in curb side traffic control cabinets. An operating temperature range of -40
to 85 °C (-40 to 185 °F) coupled with hazardous location certification (Class I Division
2), optional conformal coating and a powder coated aluminum enclosure allows the
RUGGEDCOM RS900G to be placed in almost any location.
The embedded RUGGEDCOM RS900G (Rugged Operating System) provides advanced
networking features such as Enhanced Rapid Spanning Tree (eRSTP), Port Rate Limit-
ing and a full array of intelligent functionality for high network availability and man-
ageability.
