Security information
Siemens provides products and solutions with industrial security functions that support the
secure operation of plants, systems, machines and networks.
In order to protect plants, systems, machines and networks against cyber threats, it is
necessary to implement – and continuously maintain – a holistic, state-of-the-art industrial
security concept. Siemens’ products and solutions constitute one element of such a concept.
Customers are responsible for preventing unauthorized access to their plants, systems,
machines and networks. Such systems, machines and components should only be connected
to an enterprise network or the internet if and to the extent such a connection is necessary and
only when appropriate security measures (e.g. firewalls and/or network segmentation) are in
place.

Electrostatic sensitive devices (ESD)
Electronic modules contain electrostatic sensitive components
These components can easily be destroyed if handled incorrectly.
Note the following instructions to avoid damage.
● Touch electronic modules only when you absolutely need to work on them.
● If electronic modules need to be touched, the body of the person involved must first be
electrostatically discharged and grounded.
● Do not bring electronic modules in contact with electrically isolating materials such as
plastic film, isolating table top pads or clothing made of synthetic fibers.
● Place the modules only on conductive surfaces.

Description of the device 4
4.1 Purpose
What is possible?
The devices of the SCALANCE X100 product line allow the cost-effective installation of
Industrial Ethernet bus and star structures with switching functionality.
With the following IE switches, there are also electrical/optical media transitions:
● SCALANCE X104-2
● SCALANCE X106-1
● SCALANCE X112-2
IE switches with the suffix PoE also allow the supply of power to end devices over Ethernet
cables with Power-over-Ethernet complying with 802.3af.
Note
If devices are supplied over long 24 V power supply lines or networks, measures are necessary
to prevent interference by strong electromagnetic pulses on the supply lines. These can result,
for example, due to lightning or switching of large inductive loads.
One of the tests used to attest the immunity of these devices to electromagnetic interference is
the "surge immunity test" according to EN 61000-4-5. This test requires overvoltage protection
for the power supply lines. A suitable device is, for example, the Dehn Blitzductor BVT AVD 24
V type no. 918 422 or a comparable protective element.

Power over Ethernet (PoE) function
The PoE function allows the power supply of connected Ethernet devices via the Ethernet cable
so that the end device does not need a separate power supply.
Per PoE port of the PSE (Power Sourcing Equipment), a maximum of 15.4 W power are
available according to the 802.3af standard.
Note
With a 100 m long cable connected, the end device then has a maximum of 12.95 W available.
