Introduction
The RUGGEDCOM RMC is an industrially hardened fiber optical media converter specifically designed to operate in
harsh environments such as those found in electric utility substations and factory floors. The RUGGEDCOM RMC
provides industrial strength Ethernet copper-to-fiber media conversion allowing for 10Base-T to 10Base-FL and
100Base-TX to 100Base-FX over SingleMode or MultiMode fiber optics.
The RUGGEDCOM RMC is specifically designed to meet the same EMI immunity and environmental requirements
as mission critical protective relaying devices in accordance with the IEC 61850-3 (2002) and IEEE 1613 (2003)
standards for communications and networking equipment in electric power utility substations, as well as NEMA TS
2 (1998) EMI and environmental requirements for traffic control equipment.
The reliability of RUGGEDCOM product families exceeds those of commercial devices by having no rotating
mechanical parts (i.e. no cooling fans), utilizing high temperature solid state components and incorporating the
necessary transient and surge suppression circuitry required for substation and electrically harsh environments.
