Siemens recommends using RUGGEDCOM industrial Ethernet shielded cables for all Ethernet ports. Siemens does not recommend the use of copper cabling of any length for critical, real-time substation automation applications. 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.
RUGGEDCOM M969F Introduction Installation Guide 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.
These ratings are determined by specific tests. The RUGGEDCOM M969F Industrial Ethernet Switch is manufactured and tested to IP67 standards. With an IP67 rating a product will be "dust tight" and remain completely sealed when immersed in water to a depth of 1 meter for 1 hour (IEC 60529).
This product contains no user-serviceable parts. Attempted service by unauthorized personnel shall render all warranties null and void. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Siemens Canada Ltd could invalidate specifications, test results, and agency approvals, and void the user's authority to operate the equipment.
If any item is missing or damaged, contact Siemens for assistance. Section 2.3 Mounting the Device The RUGGEDCOM M969F is designed to be mounted on a panel by affixing the top and bottom flanges of the device to a panel using screws. IMPORTANT! Heat generated by the device is channeled outwards from the enclosure.
Connecting the Failsafe Alarm Relay The Failsafe output relay is provided to signal critical error conditions that may occur on the RUGGEDCOM M969F series switches. The contacts are energized upon power up of the unit and remain energized until a critical error occurs.
The M23 power connector has five terminal pins, which means two power supply sources are allowed to power the RUGGEDCOM M969F with the M23 power connector. The RUGGEDCOM M969F supports dual redundant power supplies: Power Supply 1 (PS1) and Power Supply 2 (PS2).
AC. Section 2.5.2 Power Supply Wiring The following illustrates how to connect the RUGGEDCOM M969F to a single or dual power supplies. NOTE • For 100-240 VAC rated equipment, a 250 VAC appropriately rated circuit breaker must be installed.

Connecting to the Device The following describes the various methods for accessing the ROS console and Web interfaces on the device. For more detailed instructions, refer to the ROS User Guide for the RUGGEDCOM M969F. RS-232 Console Port Connect a PC or terminal directly to the RS-232 console port to access the boot-time control and ROS interfaces.
Communication Ports Connect any of the available Ethernet ports on the device to a management switch and access the ROS console and Web interfaces via the device's IP address. The factory default IP address for the RUGGEDCOM M969F is https://192.168.0.1.
Communication Ports Communication Ports The RUGGEDCOM M969F can be equipped with various types of communication ports to enhance its abilities and performance. To determine which ports are equipped on the device, refer to the factory data file available through ROS. For more information on how to access the factory data file, refer to the ROS User Guide for the RUGGEDCOM M969F.
Section 4.1 Copper Ethernet Ports The RUGGEDCOM M969F supports eight 10/100Base-TX Ethernet ports that allow connection to standard Category 5 (CAT-5) unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cables with RJ45 male connectors or M12 male connectors. The RJ45/M12 connectors are directly connected to chassis ground on the device and can accept CAT-5 shielded twisted-pair (STP) cables.
