Installation Guide

Introduction

The RUGGEDCOM RSG920P is a rugged, high density, Ethernet switch designed to operate in harsh
environments with widely varying climatic and environmental conditions. Tested and certified to withstand
extreme temperatures, vibrations and shocks, the RUGGEDCOM RSG920P offers exceptional reliability for
industrial applications, such as transportation systems and oil/gas applications.
Offering 20 Gigabit Ethernet ports, including four SFP slots and four Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) ports, the
RUGGEDCOM RSG920P is suitable for applications that require high bandwidths and is ready to accommodate
future network expansions.
• The four SFP slots provide ultimate flexibility in up-link distances and bandwidth, with support for Gigabit and
Fast Ethernet.
• The four PoE ports supply up to 120 W (30 W per port) of power, allowing the RUGGEDCOM RSG920P to
accommodate various PoE devices, such as cameras, intercom devices, Wireless LAN Access points and
Bluetooth sensors. Smart Power Management options provide higher reliability for the most important devices
on the network when power demands exceed the available supply.
The small form factor of the RUGGEDCOM RSG920P allows for installation in space-limited cabinets and on DIN
rails.
RUGGEDCOM ROS provides advanced layer 2 networking functions, and advanced cyber security features.
Coupled with the ruggedized hardware design, RUGGEDCOM RSG920P is ideal for creating mission-critical,
real-time, control applications where high reliability and availability is of paramount importance.
