Industrial managed Ethernet switch
max. 4 port, RS485/RS422/RS232 | RuggedServer™ RS400 RuggedCom

The RuggedServer™ RS400 Family is an industrially hardened, serial device server with an integrated, fully managed, Ethernet switch, designed to operate reliably in electrically harsh and climatically demanding environments. Featuring an integrated 4 port serial server, a 4 port managed Ethernet switch, and an optional V.90 modem, the RS400 is able to interconnect multiple types of intelligent electronic devices (IEDs) that have different methods of communications. Using the RS400 results in fewer connectivity devices (which reduces overall system costs) and also extends the useful life of existing legacy IEDs (which minimizes capital expenditure for new equipment).

The RS400 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. The RS400 meets or exceeds a wide range of industry standards including IEC61850, IEEE1613, IEC61000-6-2, IEC1800-3, and NEMA TS-2. The RS400 also features a wide operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C allowing it to be installed in virtually any location.
