The RUGGEDCOM RST2228 / RST2228P is a field modular 19“ Layer 2 rack switch with 10 Gbit/s uplinks, support for IEEE 1588 and optional Power-over-Ethernet - an ideal solution for high port density applications in the electric power, intelligent traffic systems, rail, oil&gas and other industrial communications markets.
2. • The RUGGEDCOM RST2228 / RST2228P is a field modular 19“ Layer 2 rack
switch with 10 Gbit/s uplinks, support for IEEE 1588 and optional Power-over-
Ethernet - an ideal solution for high port density applications in the electric
power, intelligent traffic systems, rail, oil&gas and other industrial
communications markets.
• The front loading, field replaceable module design enhances the
maintainability and upgradability of the switch as it allows modules to be
changed without removing the chassis from the rack.
• This unique design also provides future proofing of the product as it can be
deployed with Gigabit uplink SFPs and 100 Mbps LAN ports initially and then
upgraded to 10 Gigabit uplinks and Gigabit LAN ports as data communication
needs increase.
Description
3. Up to 24 modern IEDs or other
IEEE1588 slaves can be connected
directly to the RUGGEDCOM RST2228
via Fast Ethernet or via Gigabit/s ports
Description
Connect a high number of Power-
over-Ethernet capable VoIP-
telephones and other devices to a
single RUGGEDCOM RST2228P
4. High bandwidth uplinks
The 10 Gbit/s uplinks enable throughput for large networks with large amounts of
bandwidth consuming applications.
Field-replaceable modular design
The field modular design allows for on-site modifications which reduce costs and
network downtime in case of necessary replacements.
IEEE 1588 support
The RUGGEDCOM RST2228 is future proof device with support for modern IEEE
1588 based networking.
Removable storage media
The RUGGEDCOM CLP reduces the setup time in the field and allows for easier and
faster component exchange in case of product failure.
Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) Support
The RUGGEDCOM RST2228P comes with Power-overEthernet support (IEEE 802.3bt
draft) for up to 24 devices with a combined power of 500 Watt.
Certifications and approvals
Backed by a large number of certifications and approvals for electric power,
transportation and oil&gas verticals.
Description
5. Cyber security
• Passwords – support for multiple access levels with separate credentials for
each level
• SSH / SSL – extends capability of password protection to add encryption of
passwords and data as they cross the network
• Enable / disable ports – capability to disable ports so unauthorized devices can’t
connect to unused ports
• SNMPv3 – encrypted authentication and access security
• HTTPS – for secure access to the web interface
• 802.1x – to ensure only permitted devices can connect to the device
• MAC address authentication – control access to devices that do not support
RADIUS
