RUGGEDCOM RS969
Installation Guide
Introduction
The RUGGEDCOM RS969 is an industrially hardened, fully managed Ethernet switch providing dual fiber optical
Fast Ethernet or Gigabit ports and eight Fast Ethernet copper ports in an IP65/IP67 rated package for protection
against low pressure jets of water (IP65) or temporary immersion in water (IP67).
Designed to operate reliably in harsh industrial environments the RUGGEDCOM RS969 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. An operating temperature range of -40
to 85 °C (40 to 185 °F) coupled with hazardous location certification and IP65/IP67 rated waterproof packaging
allows the RUGGEDCOM RS969 to be placed in virtually any location.
The embedded RUGGEDCOM Rugged Operating System (ROS) provides advanced networking features such as
Enhanced Rapid Spanning Tree (eRSTP), Port Rate Limiting and a full array of intelligent functionality for high
network availability and manageability.
