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 1 standards. This means
that during a transient electrical event, communications errors or interruptions may occur, but recovery is
automatic.
Siemens 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.
Section1.4
High Availability Seamless Ring Operation
Parallel Redundancy Protocol (PRP) and High-availability Seamless Redundancy (HSR) are two mechanisms defined
by the IEC 62439-3 standard to provide hitless network recovery. Unlike Spanning Tree Protocol (STP), which

Introduction
RUGGEDCOM RS950G
Installation Guide
requires reconfiguration of the active network topology over redundant physical links, HSR and PRP provide hitless
network recovery through the use of information replication.
Parallel Redundancy Protocol (PRP) provides hitless network recovery by replicating information over two
physically independent Ethernet networks. The following illustrates a typical PRP network:
PRP expands the Ethernet frame by 6 octets due to RCT (Redundancy Check Trailer). Generation of PRP
supervision frames also consumes bandwidth. As a result, the network designer should keep in mind
the overhead introduced by the PRP network when calculating the network capacity.
Section1.4.2
High Availability Seamless Redundancy
The basic principle behind High-availability Seamless Redundancy (HSR) is the replication of frames over both sides
of the HRS ring. The following illustrates a typical HSR network:
All of the network nodes inside an HSR ring must be HSR-capable. HSR-unaware nodes can be attached to the HSR
ring through the use of a RedBox (Redundancy Box). Compared to PRP, HSR only demands approximately half of
the network infrastructure. However, network bandwidth on an HSR ring is approximately halved compared with a
network ring based on RSTP technology.
NOTE
Current HSR implementation limits link utilization to 74% when using multicast traffic.
Section1.5
Decommissioning and Disposal

Section2.1.1
Mounting the Device on a DIN Rail
For DIN rail installations, the RUGGEDCOM RS950G can be ordered with a DIN rail mounting bracket pre-installed
on the rear of the chassis. The bracket allow the device to be slid onto a standard 35 mm (1.4 in) DIN rail.
IMPORTANT!
DIN rail mounting is not recommended for constant vibration environments.
To mount the device to a DIN rail, do the following:
1.Pull the DIN rail adapter down and clip the device on to the DIN rail. Release the adapter to secure the device.

Mounting the Device to a Panel
For panel installations, the RUGGEDCOM RS950G can be ordered with mounting brackets that mount to the top
and bottom of the chassis.
To mount the device to a panel, do the following:
1.Remove the bracket mounting screws from the top and bottom of the chassis.
2.Install the mounting brackets to the top and bottom of the chassis using the bracket mounting screws. Make
sure the screws are hand-tightened.
3.Place the device against the panel and align the mounting brackets with the mounting holes.
4.Using #6 screws of sufficient length (not provided), secure the mounting brackets to the panel. Use wall
anchors (not provided) where required.
Section2.2
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 ROS. One common application for this relay
is to signal an alarm if a power failure occurs. For more information, refer to the ROS User Guide for

Connecting Power
The RUGGEDCOM RS950G supports a single integrated high AC/DC or low DC power supply
IMPORTANT!
• 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 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:
• Clamping Voltage: 50 V to 200 V
• Insertion Loss: < 0.1 dB at 10 MHz
• Peak Surge Current: 10 kA, 8x20µs waveform

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.
1.Connect the positive wire from the power source to the positive/live (+/L) terminal on the terminal block.
2.Connect the negative wire from the power source to the negative/neutral (-/N) terminal on the terminal block.
3.Using a braided wire or other appropriate grounding wire, connect the surge ground terminal to the chassis
