Installation Guide
Introduction
The RUGGEDCOM RMC40 is a 4-port, unmanaged Ethernet switch that provides both copper-to-fiber media
conversion as well as 10 Mbps to 100 Mbps speed conversion. Specifically designed to operate reliably in
electrically and climatically harsh environments, it is well suited for use in mission critical Ethernet networking
applications.
The RUGGEDCOM RMC40 is packaged in a compact, galvanized steel enclosure that allows either DIN or panel
mounting for efficient use of cabinet space. It has an integrated power supply with a wide range of voltages for
worldwide operability. An operating temperature range of -40 to 85°C (-40 to 185°F) without the use of internal
cooling fans allows it to be placed in almost any location. The RUGGEDCOM RMC40 is compliant with EMI and
environmental standards for utility substations, industrial manufacturing, process and control and intelligent
transportation systems applications.
The versatility and wide selection of fiber optics allows the RUGGEDCOM RMC40 to be used in a variety of
applications. It can be used in place of traditional copper-to-fiber media converters with the added ability to
convert speed from 10Mbps to 100Mbps. With dual fiber optics, daisy chaining of Ethernet enabled devices can
easily be accomplished. For the most demanding of systems, a dual-redundant fiber optic connection can be
created for a device that only offers a single 10/100Base-TX port.

approximately two minutes for any remaining energy to dissipate.
WARNING!
Radiation hazard – risk of serious personal injury. This product contains a laser system and is classified
as a CLASS 1 LASER PRODUCT. Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other
than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
Chapter 2
IMPORTANT!
This product contains no user-serviceable parts. Attempted service by unauthorized personnel shall
render all warranties null and void.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Siemens Canada Ltd could invalidate
specifications, test results, and agency approvals, and void the user's authority to operate the
equipment.
IMPORTANT!
This product should be installed in a restricted access location where access can only be gained by
authorized personnel who have been informed of the restrictions and any precautions that must be
taken. Access must only be possible through the use of a tool, lock and key, or other means of security,

Required Tools and Materials
The following tools and materials are required to install the RUGGEDCOM RMC40:
Tools/MaterialsPurpose
AC or DC power cord (16 AWG)For connecting power to the device.
CAT-5 Ethernet cablesFor connecting the device to the network.
Flathead screwdriverFor mounting the device to a DIN rail.

RUGGEDCOM RMC40
Installation Guide
4 x #8-32 screwsFor mounting the device to a panel.
Section2.3
Mounting the Device
The RUGGEDCOM RMC40 is designed for maximum mounting and display flexibility. It can be equipped with
connectors that allow it to be installed in a 35 mm (1.4 in) DIN rail or directly on a panel.
IMPORTANT!
Heat generated by the device is channeled outwards to 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
Chapter5, Dimension Drawings.

Installing the Device
Mounting the Device on a DIN Rail
For DIN rail installations, the RMC40 can be equipped with a DIN rail bracket pre-installed on the back of the
chassis. The bracket allows the device to be slid onto a standard 35 mm (1.4 in) DIN rail.
To mount the device to a DIN rail, do the following:
1.Align the slot in the bracket with the DIN rail.
2.Insert the device into the adapter. Make sure the device is secured between the two metal clips.
Section2.4
Connecting Power
The RUGGEDCOM RMC40 supports a single integrated 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 only #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.
IMPORTANT!
Siemens requires the use of external surge protection in VDSL applications where the line may be
subject to surges greater than that for which the device is rated. Use the following specifications as a
guide for VDSL external surge protection:

Connecting AC Power
To connect a high AC power supply to the device, do the following:
CAUTION!
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.

Copper Ethernet Ports
The RUGGEDCOM RMC40 supports two 10/100Base-TX Ethernet ports that allow connection to a standard
Category 5 (CAT-5) unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable with an RJ45 male connector. The RJ45 receptacles are
directly connected to the chassis ground on the device and can accept CAT-5 shielded twisted-pair (STP) cables.

Communication Ports
WARNING!
Electric shock hazard – risk of serious personal injury and/or equipment interference. If shielded
cables are used, make sure the shielded cables do not form a ground loop via the shield wire and the
RJ45 receptacles at either end. Ground loops can cause excessive noise and interference, but more
importantly, create a potential shock hazard that can result in serious injury.
IMPORTANT!
For substation applications, do not use the copper Ethernet port to interface with field devices across
distances that could produce high levels of ground potential rise (i.e. greater than 2500 V) during lineto-ground fault conditions.

Each port features a 100 and Link/Act LED that indicates the state of the port.
