Technical Data

Key Advantages

• Robust Fiber Connectivity: With three ST/BFOC fiber optic ports, this model is ideal for long-distance communication and environments with high electromagnetic interference (EMI).

• Industrial Redundancy: Supports High-speed Redundancy (HRP), Media Redundancy Protocol (MRP), and spanning tree protocols (STP/RSTP/MSTP) to ensure network uptime.

• Profinet Integration: Optimized for PROFINET networks with support for PROFINET diagnostics and conformance class B.

• Versatile Design: Its compact form factor and wide temperature range allow it to be installed in harsh industrial cabinets or outdoor enclosures.

• Virtual LANs (VLAN): Enables network segmentation to improve security and reduce unnecessary broadcast traffic.

Important Considerations (Usage Notes)

1. Fiber Type: Ensure you are using the correct fiber optic cables (Multimode) compatible with the ST/BFOC 100 Mbps connectors.

2. Power Redundancy: To maximize reliability, utilize the redundant power terminals. If one power source fails, the switch continues to operate without interruption.

3. Heat Dissipation: While it is rated for 70 °C, ensure adequate airflow within the control cabinet to prevent premature aging of electronic components.

4. Firmware Updates: Regularly check the Siemens Industry Online Support (SIOS) portal for firmware updates to patch security vulnerabilities and improve stability.

Product Applications

• Manufacturing Plants: Connecting PLCs (like S7-1500) and HMI panels across large factory floors using fiber backbones.

• Energy and Infrastructure: Ideal for substations or wind farms where electrical noise makes copper cabling unreliable.

• Transportation: Used in tunnel systems or railway signaling where long-distance data transmission is mandatory.

• Water/Wastewater Treatment: Providing reliable communication between remote pump stations and a central control room.
