Introduction
The RUGGEDCOM RS930W is a utility-grade, fully managed Ethernet switch that com-
bines an IEEE 802.11b/g Local Area Network (LAN) with wired Ethernet ports. It al-
lows network designers to achieve the integration of wired and wireless networks in
a single device.
The RUGGEDCOM RS930W can also act as a wireless access point and can – in combi-
nation with an Ethernet over VDSL (EoVDSL) interface – aggregate many devices at a
remote location back to the central control room using existing telephone grade ca-
ble (or other legacy serial cabling) at distances of up to 5 km (3 mi) at up to 35 Mbps
(upstream and downstream).
The RUGGEDCOM RS930W functions as a wireless client/bridge within an IEEE
802.11b/g compliant WLAN. This allows the RUGGEDCOM RS930W to transfer data
for connected serial port and Ethernet devices via an installed Wireless Access Point.
The RUGGEDCOM RS930W is capable of wireless data rates of up to 54 Mbps whose
bandwidth is available for the combined device traffic volume emanating from two
serial ports and two Ethernet ports.
Static authentication support is provided by WPA-PSK. For authentication by an ac-
cess point and a RADIUS server, the RUGGEDCOM RS930W supports IEEE 802.1X/
RADIUS for wireless user traffic and distributing dynamic encryption keys. All wire-
less communications are protected by modern network security features, including
strong encryption protocols using WPA with TKIP and even WPA2/802.11i with 128-
bit AES encryption. Static authentication support is provided by WPA-PSK. For ad-
ditional centralized control, the RUGGEDCOM RS930W also supports IEEE 802.1X/
RADIUS for wireless user traffic and distributing dynamic encryption keys.
The RUGGEDCOM RS930W provides a high level of immunity to electromagnetic in-
terference and heavy electrical surges typical of environments found on plant floors
and curb-side traffic control cabinets. An operating temperature range of -40 to 85 °C
(-40 to 185 °F) coupled with hazardous location certification (Class I Division 2), op-
tional conformal coating and a galvanized steel enclosure allows the RUGGEDCOM
RS930W to be placed in almost any location.
The RUGGEDCOM RS930W can be mounted on a DIN rail or panel for efficient use of
cabinet space.
The integrated power supply supports a wide range of voltages (88-300 VDC or
85-264 VAC) for worldwide operability.
The RUGGEDCOM RS930W 's superior ruggedized design and embedded RUGGED-
COM Rugged Operating System (ROS) provides superior system reliability and ad-
vanced networking features making it ideally suited for creating Ethernet networks
for mission-critical, real-time, control applications.
