Installation Manual, 11/2022, C79000-G8976-1034-11

Introduction 1
The RUGGEDCOM RS930L is an 6-port utility-grade, fully managed Ethernet switch
with Ethernet over VDSL (EoVDSL) capabilitiies, designed to operate reliably in
electrically harsh and climatically demanding environments.
EoVDSL supports LAN segments of up to 5 km (3.1 mi) over telephone grade cable
(or other legacy serial cabling) at up to 35 Mbps (upstream and downstream). It
allows an Ethernet-enabled device to communicate with a central control room
using existing cabling. The RUGGEDCOM RS930L can be equipped with dual EoVDSL
interfaces, making it ideal for right or loop network architecture. It is the perfect
solution for bringing Ethernet networking to applications where existing wiring
is already present, thus saving the considerable cost of upgrading existing legacy
devices or installing new network cabling.
The RUGGEDCOM RS930L provides a high level of immunity to electromagnetic
interference 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), optional conformal coating, and a galvanized steel enclosure
allows the RUGGEDCOM RS930L to be placed in almost any location.
The RUGGEDCOM RS930L 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.
The RUGGEDCOM RS930L'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
mission-critical, real-time, control applications.

Introduction
1.3Required Tools and Materials
1.3 Required Tools and Materials
The following tools and materials are required to install the RUGGEDCOM RS930L:
Tools/Materials Purpose
AC power cord (16 AWG) For connecting power to the device.
CAT-5 Ethernet cables For connecting the device to a LAN.
Flathead screwdriver For mounting the device to a DIN rail.
Phillips screwdriver For mounting the device to a panel.
4 x #6-32 screws For mounting the device to a panel.
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
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 I 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.

Installing the Device
2.1General Procedure
2.1 General Procedure
The general procedure for installing the device is as follows:
Note
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 29).
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 RS930L is designed for maximum mounting and display flexibility.
It can be equipped with adapters that allow it to be attached to a DIN rail or panel.
Note
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.

2.4 Connecting the Failsafe Alarm Relay
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 RS930L.
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 RS930L.
To connect the failsafe alarm relay, do the following:
1. Insert the failsafe alarm relay terminal block into the device and tighten the
screws.
2. Connect a failsafe device to the terminal block.

2.5 Connecting Power
The RUGGEDCOM RS930L supports power input from a single high AC/DC or low DC
power supply.
Note
• For 110/230 VAC rated equipment, an appropriately rated AC circuit breaker
must be installed.
• For 125/250 VDC rated equipment, an appropriately rated DC circuit breaker
must be installed.
• Use minimum #16 gage copper wiring when connecting terminal blocks.
• Equipment must be installed according to applicable local wiring codes and
standards.
• All line-to-ground transient energy is shunted to the Surge Ground terminal. In
cases where users require the inputs to be isolated from ground, remove the
ground braid between Surge and Chassis Ground. Note that all line-to-ground
transient protection circuitry will be disabled.

2.5.1 Connecting High AC/DC Power
To connect a high AC/DC power supply to the device, do the following:
NOTICE
Electrical hazard – risk of damage to equipment
Do not connect AC power cables to terminals for DC power. Damage to the power
supply may occur.
NOTICE
Electrical hazard – risk of damage to equipment
Before testing the dielectric strength (HIPOT) in the field, remove the braided
ground cable connected to the surge ground terminal and chassis ground. This cable
connects transient suppression circuitry to chassis ground and must be removed in
order to avoid damage to transient suppression circuitry during testing.
Note
Torque all terminal connections to 0.6 N·m (5 lbf-in).
1. Secure the power terminal block to the device.
2. Connect the positive wire from the power source to the positive/live (+/L)
