RuggedCom RS900W Switch User Manual


 
The RuggedWireless™ RS900W is an industrially hardened
Ethernet switch which integrates an IEEE 802.11b/g Wireless
Access Point, with a fully managed wired 8-Port Ethernet switch
providing six Fast Ethernet copper only ports and two optional
copper or fiber ports. With the installation of the RS900W
wireless access point, a network designer will achieve the
integration of wired and wireless networks. The RS900W can be
configured as an access, client, or bridge device
Designed to operate reliably in harsh industrial environments the
RS900W provides a high level of immunity to electromagnetic
interference and heavy electrical surges typical of environments
found in electric utility substations, factory floors or in curb side
traffic control cabinets. An operating temperature range of -40°C
to +85°C coupled with hazardous location certification, optional
conformal coating and a galvanized steel enclosure allows the
RS900W to be placed in almost any location.
The RS900W functions as a standalone IEEE 802.11b/g access
point for wireless clients providing wireless data rates of up to
54Mbps. All wireless communications are protected by the very
latest "robust security networks" features including strong
encryption protocols using WPA with TKIP and even
WPA2/802.11i with AES support. Static authentication support is
provided by WPA-PSK. For additional centralized control, the
RS900W also supports IEEE 802.1X/RADIUS for wireless user
traffic and distributing dynamic encryption keys.
The embedded Rugged Operating System (ROSTM) provides
advanced networking features such as Enhanced Rapid
Spanning Tree (eRSTPTM), VLAN, Quality of Service, and a full
array of intelligent functionality and advanced cyber security
features for high network availability and manageability.
The RS900W is backed by a five year warranty and
unsurpassed technical support.
