Introduction 1
The RUGGEDCOM RS900F is a 9-port utility-grade, fully managed Ethernet switch
specifically designed to operate reliably in electrically harsh and climatically demand-
ing environments.
The RUGGEDCOM RS900F provides a high level of immunity to electromagnetic in-
terference and heavy electrical surges typical of environments found on plant floors
and 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), op-
tional conformal coating and a galvanized steel enclosure allows the RUGGEDCOM
RS900F to be placed in almost any location.
The RUGGEDCOM RS900F can be mounted on a DIN rail or panel for efficient use of
cabinet space.
The integrated power supply supports a wide range of voltages (88-300 VDC or
85-264 VAC) for worldwide operability, as well as dual-redundant, reversible polari-
ty, 24 VDC and 48 VDC power supply inputs for high availability applications requir-
ing dual or backup power inputs.
The RUGGEDCOM RS900F 's superior ruggedized design and embedded RUGGEDCOM
Rugged Operating System (ROS) provides superior system reliability and advanced
networking features making it ideally suited for creating Ethernet networks for mis-
sion-critical, real-time, control applications.
