Introduction

The RUGGEDCOM i803 is a compact, fully managed Ethernet switch designed to
operate reliably in harsh industrial environments. The flexibility of the RUGGEDCOM
i803 allows the user to choose from managed or unmanaged, regular or extended
temperature, fiber optical or copper interfaces, and fast or Gigabit Ethernet. With
up to nine Ethernet ports, the RUGGEDCOM i803 is the perfect choice for a wide
variety of demanding industrial environments such as those found in process control
applications (oil and gas, petro-chemical, metals and mining, wind farms).
The RUGGEDCOM i803 is packaged in a compact, die cast aluminum, DIN mountable
enclosure for efficient use of cabinet space. Dual 24 VDC power inputs increase
reliability in case of primary power supply faults. The i800 provides a high level of
immunity to electromagnetic interference and heavy electrical surges typical of
environments found in industrial applications. An operating temperature range
of -20 to 60 °C (-4 to 140 °F) or optionally -40 to 85 °C (-40 to 185 °F) allows the
RUGGEDCOM i803 to be placed in almost any location.
The RUGGEDCOM i803 features a full array of intelligent functionality for high
network availability and manageability. The embedded Rugged Operating System
(ROS) provides advanced Layer 2 and Layer 3 networking functions, and advanced
cyber security features. The Enhanced Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (eRSTP) provides
very fast network recovery in case of failures, guaranteeing a high availability
network, and allows any topology from ring to mesh. Numerous other features
like VLANs and QoS make the RUGGEDCOM i803 an enterprise class switch in an
industrial class package.
