Installation Manual, 11/2022, C79000-G8976-1017-12

Introduction 1
The RUGGEDCOM RS401 is an industrially hardened, serial device server with an
integrated, fully managed Ethernet switch, designed to operate reliably in electrically
harsh and climatically demanding environments. Featuring an integrated 4 port
serial server, a 4 port managed Ethernet switch, and an optional V.90 modem,
the RUGGEDCOM RS401 is able to interconnect multiple types of intelligent
electronic devices (IEDs) that have different methods of communications. Using
the RUGGEDCOM RS401 results in fewer connectivity devices (which reduces
overall system costs) and also extends the useful life of existing legacy IEDs (which
minimizes capital expenditure for new equipment).
The RUGGEDCOM RS401's compact design makes it ideally suited for panel mount
locations or installations with tight space restrictions.
The RUGGEDCOM RS401 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. The
RUGGEDCOM RS401 meets or exceeds a wide range of industry standards including
IEC61850, IEEE1613, IEC61000-6- 2, IEC1800-3 and NEMA TS-2. The RUGGEDCOM
RS401 also features a wide operating temperature range of -40 to 85 °C (-40 to 185
°F) allowing it to be installed in virtually any location.
The RUGGEDCOM RS401 also includes an industrially rated integrated power
supply that can support a wide range of power supply options suitable for multiple
industries and for worldwide operability. Options include 24 VDC, 48 VDC, 88-300
VDC and 85-264VAC, allowing for great installation flexibility.
The embedded Rugged Operating System (ROS) within the RUGGEDCOM RS401
provides advanced Layer 2 and Layer 3 networking functions, advanced cyber
security features, and a full array of intelligent functionality for high network
availability and manageability. Coupled with the ruggedized hardware design,
the RUGGEDCOM RS401 is ideal for creating mission-critical, real-time, control
applications in any harsh environment.

Introduction
1.4Decommissioning and Disposal
1.4 Decommissioning and Disposal
Proper decommissioning and disposal of this device is important to prevent malicious
users from obtaining proprietary information and to protect the environment.
Decommissioning
This device may include sensitive, proprietary data. Before taking the device out of
service, either permanently or for maintenance by a third-party, make sure it has
been fully decommissioned.
For more information, refer to the associated "Configuration Manual".
Recycling and Disposal
For environmentally friendly recycling and disposal of this device and related
accessories, contact a facility certified to dispose of waste electrical and electronic
equipment. Recycling and disposal must be done in accordance with local
regulations.
1.5 Cabling Recommendations
Siemens recommends using SIMATIC NET industrial Ethernet shielded cables for all
Ethernet ports.
1.5.1 Protection On Twisted-Pair Data Ports
All copper Ethernet ports on RUGGEDCOM products include transient suppression
circuitry to protect against damage from electrical transients and conform with
IEC 61850-3 and IEEE 1613 Class 1 standards. This means that during a transient
electrical event, communications errors or interruptions may occur, but recovery is
automatic.
Siemens also does not recommend using copper Ethernet ports to interface with
devices in the field across distances that could produce high levels of ground
potential rise (i.e. greater than 2500 V), during line-to-ground fault conditions.
1.5.2 Supported Fiber Optic Cables
The following fiber optic cable types are supported under the stated conditions.
Distance (m)Cable Type Wavelength (nm) Modal Bandwidth
(MHz·km) 100Base-FX 1000Base-SX 10GBase-SR

Installing the Device
2.3Mounting the Device
2.3 Mounting the Device
The RUGGEDCOM RS401 is designed for maximum mounting and display flexibility. It
can be equipped with connectors that allow it to be installed on a DIN rail or directly
on a panel.
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.
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 either DIN rail or panel hardware installed,
refer to "Dimension Drawings" (Page 31).
2.3.1 Mounting the Device on a DIN Rail
The RUGGEDCOM RS401 can be ordered with panel/DIN rail adapters preinstalled on
each side of the chassis. Use the adapters to mount the device to a standard 35 mm
(1.4 in) IEC/EN 60715 or TS35 DIN rail.
Note
The device is available with a front panel or side panel mount option.
Mounting the Device
To mount the device to a DIN rail, do the following:
1. Hook the top teeth of the adapters onto the DIN rail.
