Description and operating instructions  RS2-xTX/xFX EEC

Industrial Ethernet Rail Switch 2

The Rail Switches – RS2-3TX/2FX EEC– RS2-3TX/2FX-SM EEC– RS2-4TX/1FX EEC – RS2-4TX/1FX-ST EEC– RS2-4TX/1FX-SM EEC– RS2-4TX EEC

in short RS2-xTX/xFX EEC, are switches

especially designed for use in industrial

environments. They support Ethernet 10

MBit/s and Fast Ethernet 100 MBit/s.

The Rail Switch modules support switched

Ethernet networks in accordance with IEEE

standard 802.3 using copper and fiber optic

technology. The switch modules are plug

ged onto the standard DIN rail.

The RS2-3TX/2FX… modules have three

10/100 MBit/s twisted pair ports

(10/100BASE-TX, RJ45 connectors) and two

100 MBit/s fiber optic ports (100BASE-FX,

Duplex SC connector).

It is possible to connect up to three DTEs or

other TP/TX network segments to the TP/TX

ports using twisted pair cabling. Two further

DTEs or optical network components can be

connected to the fiber ports.

The RS2-4TX/1FX… modules have four

10/100 MBit/s twisted pair ports

(10/100BASE-TX, RJ45 connectors) and one

100 MBit/s fiber optic port (100BASE-FX,

Duplex SC connector or ST connector on

R2-4TX/1FX-ST EEC).

The RS2-4TX EEC module has four

10/100 MBit/s twisted pair ports

(10/100BASE-TX, RJ45 connectors).

It is possible to connect up to four DTEs or

other TP/TX network segments to the TP/TX

ports using twisted pair cabling. One further

DTE or optical network component can be

connected to the fiber port (with RS2

4TX/1FX…).

The TP ports support auto negotiation,

autopolarity and autocrossing.

The fiber optic ports support full duplex

(FDX)
