Description and operating instructions
Industrial ETHERNET Rail Switch 2 Family
RS2-4R
The Rail Switch RS2 has been especially
designed for use in industrial environments.
It supports ETHERNET 10 MBit/s and Fast
ETHERNET 100 MBit/s.
The RS2-4R devices
– RS2-4R
– RS2-4R 1MM SC
– RS2-4R 1SM SC
– RS2-4R 1LH SC
– RS2-4R 2MM SC
– RS2-4R 2SM SC
– RS2-4R 2LH SC
are manageable. They support SNMP and
Web based management.
The Rail Switch devices support switched
ETHERNET networks in accordance with
IEEE standard 802.3 using copper technolo-
gy or optical waveguide (F/O), in line and
ring structures. The switch devices are plug-
ged onto the standard bar.
Depending on the model, the RS2-4R devi-
ces have two to four 10/100 Mbit/s twisted
pair (TP/TX) ports (RJ45 connectors) and up
to two fiber optic ports (100 Mbit/s ports).
The fiber optic ports to connect further
more switches are available with FX interfa-
ces (depending on the RS2-4R model with
multimode, singlemode or Long Haul, DSC
connectors):
– RS2-4R:
4 x TP/TX
– RS2-4R 1…: 3 x TP/TX, 1 x FX
– RS2-4R 2…: 2 x TP/TX, 2 x FX
It is possible to connect data terminal
equipments or other network segments to
the 10/100 Mbit/s ports using twisted pair
cabling TP/TX. The ports support auto-
negotiation, autopolarity and autocrossing.
The RS2-4R devices in addition have one
V.24 interface for external management.
