Recycling and Disposal
For environmentally friendly recycling and disposal of this device and related accessories, contact a facility
certified to dispose of waste electrical and electronic equipment. Recycling and disposal must be done in
accordance with local regulations.
Section1.5
Cabling Recommendations
Before connecting the device, be aware of the recommendations and considerations outlined in this section.
CONTENTS
•Section1.5.1, “Protection On Twisted-Pair Data Ports”
•Section1.5.2, “Gigabit Ethernet 1000Base-TX Cabling Recommendations”
•Section1.5.3, “Supported Fiber Optic Cables”
Section1.5.1
Protection On Twisted-Pair Data Ports
All copper Ethernet ports on RUGGEDCOM products include transient suppression circuitry to protect against
damage from electrical transients and conform with IEC 61850-3 and IEEE 1613 Class 1 standards. This means
that during a transient electrical event, communications errors or interruptions may occur, but recovery is
automatic.
Siemens also does not recommend using copper Ethernet ports to interface with devices in the field across
distances that could produce high levels of ground potential rise (i.e. greater than 2500 V), during line-to-ground
fault conditions.
Section1.5.2
Gigabit Ethernet 1000Base-TX Cabling Recommendations
The IEEE 802.3ab Gigabit Ethernet standard defines 1000 Mbit/s Ethernet communications over distances of up
to 100 m (328 ft) using all 4 pairs in category 5 (or higher) balanced, unshielded twisted-pair 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. For reliable, error-free data communication, new and pre-existing communication
paths should be verified for TIA/EIA-568-A compliance.
The following table summarizes the relevant cabling standards:
Cabling Category 1000Base-
TX Compliant Required Action
< 5 No New wiring infrastructure required.
5 Yes Verify TIA/EIA-568-A compliance.
5e Yes No action required. New installations should be designed with Category 5e or higher.

Introduction
Supported Fiber Optic Cables 5
Cabling Category 1000Base-
TX Compliant Required Action
6 Yes No action required.
> 6 Yes Connector and wiring standards to be determined.
Follow these recommendations for copper data cabling in high electrical noise environments:
• Data cable lengths should be as short as possible, preferably 3 m (10 ft) 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 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 be used when required. Care should be taken to avoid the creation of ground
loops with shielded cabling.
Section1.5.3
Supported Fiber Optic Cables
The following fiber optic cable types are supported under the stated conditions.

10 Mounting the Device to a Rack
IMPORTANT!
Heat generated by the device is channeled outwards from the enclosure. As such, it is recommended
that 2.5 cm (1 in) of space be maintained on all open sides of the device to allow for some
convectional airflow.
Forced airflow is not required. However, any increase in airflow will result in a reduction of ambient
temperature and improve the long-term reliability of all equipment mounted in the rack space.
NOTE
For detailed dimensions of the device with either rack, DIN rail or panel hardware installed, refer to
Section5.8, “Dimension Drawings”.
CONTENTS
•Section2.4.1, “Mounting the Device to a Rack”
•Section2.4.2, “Mounting the Device on a DIN Rail”
•Section2.4.3, “Mounting the Device to a Panel”
Section2.4.1
Mounting the Device to a Rack
The RUGGEDCOM RSG2100F can be secured to a standard 48 cm (19 in) rack using separately purchased rack
mount adapters. The adapters can be installed at the front or rear of the chassis.
Each adapter kit includes four adapters.
CAUTION!
Vibration hazard – risk of damage to the device. In high-vibration or seismically active locations,
always install four rack mount adapters (two at the front of the chassis and two at the rear).
CAUTION!
Electrical/mechanical hazard – risk of damage to the device. Before installing the device in a rack,
make sure of the following:
• When installing the device in a closed or multi-device rack, be aware the operating ambient
temperature of the rack may be higher than the ambient temperature of the room. Make sure the
rack is installed in a suitable environment that can withstand the maximum ambient temperature
generated by the rack.
• Make sure each device in the rack is separated by at least one rack-unit of space, or 44 mm (1.75 in),
to promote convectional airflow. Forced airflow is not required. However, any increase in airflow will
result in a reduction of ambient temperature and improve the long-term reliability of all equipment
mounted in the rack space.
