Relion ® protection relays are equipped with Small Form Factor connectors, type LC. The inno-
vative LC design offers a form factor one-half the size of current industry standards.

The Ethernet communication module is provided with either galvanic RJ-45 connection or op-
tical multimode LC type connection, depending on the product variant and the selected com-
munication interface option.
Figure 73: Communication module with single Ethernet connector
Communication modules with multiple Ethernet connectors enable the forwarding of Ether-
net traffic. These variants include an internal Ethernet switch that handles the Ethernet
traffic. All Ethernet ports share this one common MAC table Ethernet ports marked with LAN
A and LAN B are used with redundant Ethernet protocols HSR and PRP. The third port without
the LAN A or LAN B label is an interlink port which is used as a redundancy box connector
with redundant Ethernet protocols.
