Introduction
The RUGGEDCOM RS969 is an industrially hardened, fully managed Ethernet switch providing dual fiber optical
Fast Ethernet or Gigabit ports and eight Fast Ethernet copper ports in an IP65/IP67 rated package for protection
against low pressure jets of water (IP65) or temporary immersion in water (IP67).
Designed to operate reliably in harsh industrial environments the RS969 provides a high level of immunity
to electromagnetic interference and heavy electrical surges typical of environments found in electric utility
substations, factory floors or in curb side traffic control cabinets. An operating temperature range of -40°C to
+85°C coupled with hazardous location certification and IP65/IP67 rated waterproof packaging allows the RS969
to be placed in virtually any location.
The embedded Rugged Operating System (ROS) provides advanced networking features such as Enhanced
Rapid Spanning Tree (eRSTP), Port Rate Limiting and a full array of intelligent functionality for high network

Power Supply Input Connectors Description
The RS969 family has 2 different power supply input connectors: a Mini A-coded male connector or M23 A-code
male connector shown in the figures below. The Mini power connector only has 4 terminals, so only one power
supply source is allowed to connect to the RS969 with the Mini power connector. The M23 power connector
has 5 terminal pins, which means 2 power supply sources are allowed to power the RS969 with the M23 power
connector.
The RS969 family supports dual redundant power supplies – Power Supply 1 (PS1) and Power Supply 2 (PS2).
The connections for PS1 and PS2 are shown in the figures below.
Refer to the table below for a description of each terminal and Section 2.2.2, “Single High AC Power Supply
Wiring Examples” through Section 2.2.4, “Dual High AC/DC Power Supplies” for wiring examples.

Connecting the Failsafe Alarm Relay
The Failsafe output relay is provided to signal critical error conditions that may occur on the RS969 series
switches. The contacts are energized upon power up of the unit and remain energized until a critical error occurs.
The proper relay connections are shown in Figure 14. One common application for this output is to signal an
alarm if a power failure or removal of control power occurs.

Cabling Recommendations
Siemens recommends using SIMATIC NET industrial Ethernet shielded cables for all Ethernet ports.
Section 2.5.1
Protection On Twisted-Pair Data Ports
Siemens does not recommend the use of copper cabling of any length for critical, real-time substation automation
applications. 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 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.
Section 2.6
Ingress Protection
IEC International Standard 60529 (Edition 2.1: 2001-02) is a "classification of degrees of protection provided
by enclosures as a system for specifying the enclosures of electrical equipment on the basis of the degree of
protection provided by the enclosure." These ratings are determined by specific tests.
The IP number is composed of two numbers, the first referring to the protection against solid objects and the
second against liquids. The higher the IP number, the better the protection. The following chart defines levels of
IP ratings.
1st IP#
Degree of protection against access to hazardous
parts & ingress of solid objects

Installing the Device
The RS969 Industrial Ethernet Switch is manufactured and tested to IP67 standards. With an IP67 rating a
product will be "dust tight" and remain completely sealed when immersed in water to a depth of 1 meter for 1
hour. (IEC 60529)
These caps completely seal off unused ports on the IP67 Industrial Ethernet Switch. It has an IP67 rated seal that
keeps out all contaminants like dirt, oil, and water.

Communication Ports
The RS969 can be equipped with various types of communication ports to enhance its abilities and performance.
To determine which ports are equipped on the device, refer to the factory data file available through ROS. For
more information on how to access the factory data file, refer to the ROS User Guide for the RS969.
Each communication port type has a specific place in the RS969 chassis.
The following sections describe the available ports:
• Section 3.1, “Copper Ethernet Ports”
• Section 3.2, “Fiber Optic Ethernet Ports”
Section 3.1
Copper Ethernet Ports
The RS969 supports eight 10/100Base-TX Ethernet ports that allow connection to standard Category 5 (CAT-5)
unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cables with RJ45 male connectors or M12 male connectors. The RJ45/M12
receptacles are directly connected to the chassis ground on the device and can accept CAT-5 shielded twistedpair (STP) cables.
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/
M12 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.

FCC Compliance
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device pursuant to Part
15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference
when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment.
This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of
this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required
to correct the interference on his own expense.

NOTE
• If the unit contains copper ports, the IEEE 1613 conformance is Class 1 (During disturbance, errors
may occur but recovery is automatic).
• If the unit contains all fiber ports, the IEEE 1613 conformance is Class 2 (During disturbance, no
errors will occur).
