Introduction 1
The RUGGEDCOM i803 is a compact, fully managed Ethernet switch designed to
operate reliably in harsh industrial environments. The flexibility of the RUGGEDCOM
i803 allows the user to choose from managed or unmanaged, regular or extended
temperature, fiber optical or copper interfaces, and fast or Gigabit Ethernet. With
up to nine Ethernet ports, the RUGGEDCOM i803 is the perfect choice for a wide
variety of demanding industrial environments such as those found in process control
applications (oil and gas, petro-chemical, metals and mining, wind farms).
The RUGGEDCOM i803 is packaged in a compact, die cast aluminum, DIN mountable
enclosure for efficient use of cabinet space. Dual 24 VDC power inputs increase
reliability in case of primary power supply faults. The i800 provides a high level of
immunity to electromagnetic interference and heavy electrical surges typical of
environments found in industrial applications. An operating temperature range of
-20 to 60 °C (-4 to 140 °F) or optionally -40 to 85 °C (-40 to 185 °F), coupled with
hazardous location certification (Class 1 Division 2) allows the RUGGEDCOM i803 to
be placed in almost any location.
The RUGGEDCOM i803 features a full array of intelligent functionality for high
network availability and manageability. The embedded Rugged Operating System
(ROS) provides advanced Layer 2 and Layer 3 networking functions, and advanced
cyber security features. The Enhanced Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (eRSTP) provides
very fast network recovery in case of failures, guaranteeing a high availability
network, and allows any topology from ring to mesh. Numerous other features
like VLANs and QoS make the RUGGEDCOM i803 an enterprise class switch in an
industrial class package.

Installing the Device
2.1General Procedure
of a tool, lock and key, or other means of security, and controlled by the authority
responsible for the location.
2.1 General Procedure
The general procedure for installing the device is as follows:
NOTICE
The user is responsible for the operating environment of the device, including
maintaining the integrity of all protective conductor connections and checking
equipment ratings. Make sure to review all operating and installation instructions
before commissioning or performing maintenance on the device.
1. Review the relevant certification information for any regulatory requirements.
For more information, refer to "Approvals (Page 25)".
2. Mount the device.
3. Connect the failsafe alarm relay.
4. Connect power to the device and ground the device to safety Earth.
5. Connect the device to the network.
6. Configure the device.
2.2 Unpacking the Device
When unpacking the device, do the following:
1. Inspect the package for damage before opening it.
2. Visually inspect each item in the package for any physical damage.
3. Verify all items are included.
Note
If any item is missing or damaged, contact Siemens for assistance.
2.3 Mounting the Device
The RUGGEDCOM i803 can be ordered with a DIN rail adapter pre-installed on the
back of the chassis. Use the adapter to latch the mount the device to a standard 35
mm (1.4 in) by 15 mm (0.6 in) IEC/EN 60715 or TS35 DIN rail.
NOTICE
Heat generated by the device is channeled outwards from the enclosure. As such, it
is recommended that 2.5 cm (1 in) of space be maintained on all open sides of the
device to allow for some convectional airflow.

Installing the Device
2.3Mounting the Device
Forced airflow is not required. However, any increase in airflow will result in a
reduction of ambient temperature and improve the long-term reliability of all
equipment mounted in the rack space.
Note
For detailed dimensions of the device with the DIN rail adapter installed, refer to
"Dimension Drawings (Page 23)".
Mounting the Device
To mount the device to a DIN rail, do the following:
1. Hook the top teeth of the adapter onto the DIN rail.

2. Swing the bottom of the device away from the DIN rail.
3. Lift the device off the DIN rail.
2.4 Connecting the Failsafe Alarm Relay (If Equipped)
The failsafe relay can be configured to latch based on alarm conditions. The NO
(Normally Open) contact is closed when the unit is powered and there are no active
alarms. If the device is not powered or if an active alarm is configured, the relay
opens the NO contact and closes the NC (Normally Closed) contact.
Note
Control of the failsafe relay output is configurable through RUGGEDCOM i803. One
common application for this relay is to signal an alarm if a power failure occurs. For
more information, refer to the "RUGGEDCOM ROS Configuration Manual" for the
RUGGEDCOM i803.
The following shows the proper relay connections.

2.5 Connecting Power
The RUGGEDCOM i803 supports a single low DC power supply with reverse polarity
and dual independent inputs. This allows for two redundant DC power sources with
the same nominal voltage to be connected.
To connect power to the device, do the following:
NOTICE
• Terminals P1-, P2- and GND are connected together internally. As such, if
redundant power supplies are connected, their negative terminals must be at
the same potential.
• Do not field wire the DC power supply on the DC mains or Battery mains.
• Use minimum #16 gage wiring when connecting terminal blocks.
• Equipment must be installed according to applicable local wiring codes and
standards.
