4 Installation
4.1 Mounting
The RSG2000 series of products have been designed with maximum mounting and display
flexibility. Customers can order an RSG2000 series switch that can be mounted in a standard 19”
rack, 1” DIN Rail, or directly onto a panel. For rack mount installations, the RSG2000 series can
be ordered with connectors on the front of the unit, or located on the rear of the chassis to allow for
all data and power cabling to be installed and connected at the rear of the rack. See Figure 2 for
rack mount orientation examples.

4.1.1 Rack Mounting

Figure 3: RSG2000 Series 19” Rack Mount Adapters

Figure 4: Rack mount adapter mounting location
The RSG2000 series family of products can be rack mounted using the included rack mount
adapter assemblies shown in Figure 3. Secure the one rack mount adapter to the front of each
side of the chassis using the included black PAN head Philips screws in the positions shown in
Figure 5. The entire chassis can then be mounted to a standard 19” rack. An additional two rack
mount adapters are included to optionally secure the rear of the chassis in high-vibration, or
seismically active locations.
NOTE: Since heat within the RSG2100P is channeled to the enclosure, it is recommended that 1
rack unit of space (1.75”) be kept unpopulated and free of equipment above each RSG2000 series
product to allow for a small amount of convectional airflow. Although forced airflow is not
necessary, any increase in airflow will result in a reduction of ambient temperature that will improve
long-term reliability of all equipment mounted within the rack space.

The RSG2100P can be equipped with either a Philips Screw Terminal Block or a Phoenix Plug
Terminal Block. The Philips Screw Terminal Block has Philips screws with a compression plate
allowing either bare wire connections or crimped terminal lugs. We recommend the use of #6 size
ring lugs to ensure secure, reliable connections under severe shock or vibration. Both terminal
blocks have a safety cover which must be removed via two Phillips screws before connecting any
wires. The safety cover must be re-attached after wiring to ensure personnel safety. Refer to Table
3 below for a description of each terminal as well as sections 4.2.1 through 4.2.2 for wiring

4.3 Dielectric Strength (HIPOT) Testing
For dielectric strength (HIPOT) testing in the field, users must remove the metal jumper located on
terminal 2, 4, and 6 of the power supply terminal block. This metal jumper connects transient
suppression circuitry to chassis ground and must be removed in order to avoid damage to transient
suppression circuitry during HIPOT testing. Figure 11 shows the proper HIPOT test connections
and should be followed to avoid damage to the device.

4.4 Failsafe Alarm Relay Wiring
The “Failsafe” output relay is provided to signal critical error conditions that may occur on the
RSG2000 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 12.
Control of the output is user selectable and can be programmed via the Rugged Operating System
(ROS). One common application for this output is to signal an alarm if a power failure or removal of
control power occurs.

5.1.3 Transient Suppression
RuggedCom does not recommend the use of copper cabling of any length for critical real-time
substation automation applications. However, transient suppression circuitry is present on all
copper ports to protect against damage from electrical transients and to ensure IEC 61850-3 and
IEEE 1613 Class 1 conformance. This means that during the transient event communications
errors or interruptions may occur but recovery is automatic. RuggedCom also does not
recommended to use these ports to interface to field devices across distances which could produce
high levels of ground potential rise, (i.e. greater than 2500V) during line to ground fault conditions.

5.2 Fiber Optic Ports
Depending on the order code of the product, the RSG2000 series products can be equipped with
several different types of fiber optic ports. The Transmit (TX) and Receive (RX) connections of
each port must be properly connected and matched for proper link and operation. Modules
populated on the top row of the device typically have locking mechanisms or tabs towards the top
of the unit. Modules located on the bottom row of the device have locking mechanisms or tabs
towards the bottom of the device.
The drawings in the following figures show each fiber optical connector style with a side and top
view to allow the user to identify the proper cable connection orientation. If modules are populated
on the bottom row of the device, the transceiver orientation will be reversed (i.e. RX and TX will be
reversed).

5.2.1 Gigabit Ethernet 1000Base-Tx Cabling Recommendations
The IEEE 802.3ab Gigabit Ethernet standard defines 1000Mbit/s Ethernet communications over
distances of up to 100 meters using 4 pairs of category 5 (or higher) balanced unshielded twistedpair cabling. For wiring guidelines, system designers and integrators should refer to the
Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA) TIA/EIA-568-A wiring standard that characterizes
minimum cabling performance specifications required for proper Gigabit Ethernet operation. To
ensure reliable, error-free data communications, new and pre-existing communication paths should
be verified for TIA/EIA-568-A compliance. Table 7 summarizes cabling standards available today.

In general the following recommendations should be followed for copper data cabling in high
electrical noise environments:
•
•
•

Data cable lengths should be as short as possible, ideally limited to 3m (10ft) in length.
Copper data cables should not be used for inter-building communications.
Power and data cables should not be run in parallel for long distances, and ideally should be
installed in separate conduits. Power and data cables should intersect at 90° angles when
necessary to reduce inductive coupling.
Shielded/screened cabling can optionally be used. The cable shield should be grounded at
one single point to avoid the generation of ground loops.

5.2.2 Pluggable optics – Installation, removal, and precautions
The RSG2000 series of products can be ordered with pluggable optic form factors such as SFP
(Small Form-factor Pluggable) or GBIC (Gigabit Interface Converter) modules. These modules can
be safely inserted and removed while the chassis is powered and operating – this feature is also
known as “hot-swappable”. When inserting or removing optics there are several precautions that
should be taken. They include:
1. Ensuring that dust caps are mounted on SFP cages at all times unless a user is in the process
of inserting or removing an SFP module. The dust caps will prevent the accumulation of
residue or particles that may inhibit proper operation.
2. Ensuring that the user has properly discharged any possible electrostatic build-up and
electrostatic discharges (ESD). This can be accomplished by properly user ‘grounding’ via an
ESD wrist strap, or by touching earth or chassis ground before performing installation or
removal of optics. ESD can damage or shorten the life of optical modules when not plugged
into a chassis.
3. SFP and GBIC optical modules should always be stored in an ESD safe bag or other suitable
ESD safe environment, free from moisture and stored at proper storage temperature (–40 to
+85°C).
4. Disconnect all cables from SFP or GBIC module before insertion or removal of module.
5. Only RuggedCom Inc. certified optics should be used on RuggedCom products. Damage can
occur to optics and product if compatibility and reliability have not been properly assessed.

5.2.2.1 Module Insertion – GBICs and SFPs
To insert GBICs or SFPs, special attention should be taken into the proper module orientation.
Refer to Figure 24 for proper module orientation, as ports on the upper row of the product require
optics to be inserted topside-up, and ports on the lower row of the product require modules to be
inserted topside-down. GBICs should be inserted with module dust cover in place. SFPs should
be inserted with dust cover in place, and the bail-latch in the locked position. Module should gently
slide into port and should lock in place when module is fully inserted. To protect optics, dust
covers should always be installed when cables are not connected.

5.2.2.2 GBIC Module Removal
GBIC Modules have two locking latches on either side of the module shown in Figure 25. To
remove GBIC module, disconnect any cable and replace with dust cover to protect the optics.
User should depress both latches simultaneously and gently pull the module from the chassis. The
module should be immediately stored in an ESD-safe environment.

Figure 25: Locking latch location on GBIC optical modules

5.2.2.3 SFP Module Removal
SFP Modules are removed using the metal bail latch located on the top of the module shown in
Figure 26. To remove the SFP module, disconnect any cable and replace with dust cover to
protect the optics. User should grasp bail latch and gently pull outwards to unlock and remove the
SFP module. Removal of the SFP module is shown further in Figure 27. The module should be
immediately stored in an ESD-safe environment.
