Introduction – Overview of Product
Section 1. Introduction - Overview of Product
1.1 Introduction
RFL is proud to introduce the 3200 MK-10 Managed Ethernet Switch. Designed to operate in
harsh substation environments the managed switch provides eight 10/100 Base TX RJ-45
electrical ports and two 10/100/1000 Base TX RJ-45 electrical ports with parallel SFP cages.
The SFP cages will allow LC fiber heads to be installed for 100 or 1000 Mb/s operation.
Optionally, four of the 10/100 Base RJ-45 ports can be provided with fiber heads. Each
Ethernet port has LED indicators that show if the port is linked, whether there is activity and the
data transfer speed. The RFL3200 MK-10 carries a three year warranty.
Below is an example of a typical substation Local Area Network (LAN) Ethernet ring
communications application for the RFL 3200 MK-10. A ring topology can be created
providing reliable operation of the substation communications system. Data for equipment
such as SCADA/RTU, Meters, Relay Monitoring, IP Telephones, IP Cameras and computer
workstations are transported across the Ethernet network for intra and/or inter substation
communications.

Safety Instructions
Read the Instruction Manual
!
Operators should read this Instruction Manual before attempting to use the equipment, to learn
how to use the equipment properly and safely.
Throughout this Instruction Manual, warnings appear before procedures that are potentially
dangerous, and cautions appear before procedures that may result in equipment damage if not
performed properly. The instructions contained in these warnings and cautions must be
followed exactly.
2.2 Additional Warnings
Warning!
Follow all of your company’s policies and procedures regarding the installation of AC powered
or DC powered equipment. If there is a conflict between any procedure in this manual and your
company’s safety rules, then your company’s safety rules must take priority.
Warning!
For DC operations and AC operations where neutral cannot be reliably identified, readily
accessible double pole disconnects and overcurrent devices must be installed between the
building wiring and the RFL3200 MK-10.
For AC operations where the neutral can be reliably identified, readily accessible single pole
disconnects and overcurrent devices must be installed between the building wiring and the
RFL3200 MK-10.
Warning!
The unit is intended to be permanently connected to supply mains by properly rated wiring in
accordance with applicable local and national codes (e.g. CEC, NEC etc).
Warning!
The chassis of the unit shall be reliably bonded to protective ground.

Safety Instructions
Warning!
The RFL 3200 MK-10 may use third party SFP Class 1 Laser Modules. These modules may be
purchased through RFL or third parties. The class 1 certification originates with the SFP
manufacturer, not RFL. Read the following safety information and any additional safety
information included with the modules.
Class 1 Laser Products supplied by RFL are not considered dangerous and comply with the
following standards:
US 21 CFR 1040.10 and 1040.11
IEC 60825-1: 2007
Laser light can potentially cause serious eye damage. The lasers used in the RFL 3200 MK-10
produce light that is invisible to the naked eye. It should be assumed that the laser is active at
all times and it is imperative that the technician never look into the end of the fiber or the
aperture with the naked eye or with optical instruments.
2.3 Cautions and Notices
CAUTION
Any installation using an enclosed cabinet with a swing-out rack must be securely fastened to
the floor. This will prevent the cabinet from falling forward when the rack is moved outward.
CAUTION
If your RFL3200 MK-10 has Optical Fiber Heads always replace the protective covers when
the unit is not in use.
NOTICE
RFL products are not designed for safety critical direct control of nuclear reactors and should
not be used as such.

Section 3. System Description
3.1 Ethernet Switch Overview
The RFL 3200 MK-10 Managed Ethernet Switch is designed to operate in harsh environments
such as those found in electric utility substations. The Ethernet Switch is designed to meet the
same EMI immunity and environmental requirements as mission critical protective relaying
devices. The reliability of the RFL 3200 MK-10 exceeds that of a commercial Ethernet Switch
by having no fans for cooling. The unit utilizes high temperature solid state components and
incorporates the necessary transient and surge suppression circuitry required for electrically
harsh environments.
3.1.1 Key Features
•Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet ports
•Full or half-duplex mode per port
•Auto-negotiation and Auto-MDI/MDIX
•High performance non-blocking operation
•Automatic address learning and aging of up to 8k MAC addresses
•SFP cages for industry standard SFP fiber heads for 100 or 1000 Mb/s operation
•IEEE 802.3 Ethernet standard for universal interoperability
•IEC 61850-3 Environmental standard
