Legal information
Warning notice system
This manual contains notices you have to observe in order to ensure your personal safety, as well as to prevent
damage to property. The notices referring to your personal safety are highlighted in the manual by a safety alert
symbol, notices referring only to property damage have no safety alert symbol. These notices shown below are
graded according to the degree of danger.
DANGER
indicates that death or severe personal injury will result if proper precautions are not taken.
WARNING
indicates that death or severe personal injury may result if proper precautions are not taken.
CAUTION
indicates that minor personal injury can result if proper precautions are not taken.
NOTICE
indicates that property damage can result if proper precautions are not taken.
If more than one degree of danger is present, the warning notice representing the highest degree of danger will be
used. A notice warning of injury to persons with a safety alert symbol may also include a warning relating to property
damage.
Qualified Personnel
The product/system described in this documentation may be operated only by personnel qualified for the specific
task in accordance with the relevant documentation, in particular its warning notices and safety instructions. Qualified

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.
For additional information on industrial security measures that may be implemented, please
visit
https://www.siemens.com/industrialsecurity (https://www.siemens.com/industrialsecurity)
Siemens’ products and solutions undergo continuous development to make them more secure.
Siemens strongly recommends that product updates are applied as soon as they are available
and that the latest product versions are used. Use of product versions that are no longer
supported, and failure to apply the latest updates may increase customers’ exposure to cyber
threats.
To stay informed about product updates, subscribe to the Siemens Industrial Security RSS
Feed under
https://www.siemens.com/industrialsecurity (https://www.siemens.com/industrialsecurity)
Catalogs
You will find the article numbers for the Siemens products of relevance here in the following
catalogs:

WARNING
EXPLOSION HAZARD
Replacing components may impair suitability for Class 1, Division 2 or Zone 2.
WARNING
When used in hazardous environments corresponding to Class I, Division 2 or Class I, Zone
2, the device must be installed in a cabinet or a suitable enclosure.
Safety notices for use according to ATEX and IECEx
If you use the device under ATEX or IECEx conditions you must also keep to the following
safety notices in addition to the general safety notices for protection against explosion:
WARNING
Requirements for the cabinet/enclosure
The equipment shall be installed in a suitable enclosure that provides a degree of protection
not less than IP54 in accordance with EN/IEC 60079-15.
WARNING
Suitable cables at high ambient temperatures
If the temperature of the cable or housing socket exceeds 70 °C or the branching point of
conductors exceeds 80 °C, special precautions must be taken.

4.2 Notes on installation of SFP / SFP+ transceivers
General notes on media modules and pluggable transceivers
WARNING
Install and remove media modules only when the power is off
Media modules may only be inserted in or removed from a SCALANCE device when the
power supply to the device has been turned off.
Use only approved media modules
Use only "MM900" media modules in the module slots of SCALANCE devices.
NOTICE
Only use plug-in transceivers in approved SCALANCE devices
Only use the SFP/SFP+ plug-in transceivers in SCALANCE devices that have ATEX/IECEx
approval.
If you use the SFP/SFP+ plug-in transceivers in other devices, Siemens cannot guarantee the
compatibility and risk-free use of these components.

Transceiver SFP/SFP+/SCP/STP
18 Operating Instructions, 10/2019, A5E02630804-13

CAUTION
Remember the orientation of media modules.
On modular devices, there are always two module slots arranged opposite each other.
Remember the correct orientation when installing MM900 media modules.
Example:
● The first MM900 media module is installed in slot 1.
● The second MM900 media module installed in slot 2 must be turned through 180 degrees.
On modular devices for rack mounting, pairs of module slots are located one above the other
in which modules can be inserted in a specific order:
Example of a rack device:
● The first MM900 media module is installed in slot 1.
● The second MM900 media module installed in slot 7 must be turned through 180 degrees.
Other modules are then inserted in slots 2 and 8 or 3 and 9 etc.
The permitted operating temperature is decided by the fully equipped device (switch + media
module + pluggable transceiver).
With modular devices, it is not only the switch that decides the permitted operating
temperature of the overall device but also the temperature ranges of the MM900 media
modules and the SFP transceivers. You will find details in the technical specifications of the
relevant components.
The following aspects can restrict the maximum permitted operating temperature:
● The orientation of the carrier device.
● The use of SFP transceivers.
● The use of transceivers of the types LH, LH+ or ELH.
NOTICE
Use only approved pluggable transceivers
If you use components not approved by Siemens AG, in particular SFP / SFP+ transceivers,
Siemens cannot accept any responsibility for the correct functioning of the "Ethernet switch
system" according to the specification.
If components are used that have not been Siemens approved, Siemens cannot vouch for
their compatibility or for risk-free use of these components.
Note
Use media modules only in an approved modular device
Use an MM900 media module only for a device equipped with suitable slots for such modules.
Example: X308-2M.
The names and labeling of the media modules differ
● Example: The device is called, for example, "MM992-2SFP" [6GK5 992-2AS00-8AA0], the
labeling on the device is "9922AS". You will find detailed information on the labeling of the
media modules in the "MM900 media modules" compact operating instructions.

Note
Shipbuilding approval
The shipbuilding approval applies to all SFP pluggable transceivers.
Note
Slot number
With modular devices, the MM900 media modules must be given a slot number.
The slot number labels are supplied with the modular devices.
Note
Different colors of the clip
An SFP with multimode has a black clip and an SFP with single mode has a blue clip. To protect
the pins, these are fitted with a dummy plug.
Note
Plugging and pulling during operation
With SCALANCE X, the pluggable transceivers can be plugged and pulled during operation. If
you have questions on the use of SIMATIC NET products, please contact your Siemens sales
partner.
Notes on SCALANCE X-300
Note
Pluggable transceivers with the SCALANCE XR324-4M EEC
In contrast to the information in the product documentation for the SCALANCE MM900,
MM992-2SFP media modules can be operated in the SCALANCE XR324-4M EEC at ambient
temperatures up to a maximum of 70 °C if the following requirements are met:
● MM992-2SFP media modules as of hardware product version 02 are suitable. The
hardware product version can be found on the device. You can also read out this information
with the WBM or the CLI.
● Only the following pluggable transceivers may be used:
– SFP991-1
– SFP991-1LD
– SFP992-1
– SFP992-1LD
