The SCALANCE XR-500 Industrial Ethernet switches with robust metal enclosure with IP20 degree of protection are optimized for installation in the 19" control cabinet. The power supply unit (85 to 264 V AC) for power supply to the SCALANCE XR-500, which is also optimized for the 19" cabinet, can either be installed directly at the back of the SCALANCE XR522/XR528, or connected using connecting cables (installation of the power supply unit in a 19" rack). The data ports of the SCALANCE XR-500 are located optionally either at the front or rear of the device (depending on the device variant).
The switches have:
4-pole terminal block on the front for connecting the optionally available power supply unit (85 V to 264 V AC)
6-pole connector for assembly of the optionally available power supply unit (85 V to 264 V AC) on the rear
2-pole terminal block for connecting the isolated signaling contact for simple display of faults
Row of LEDs for indicating status information (power, link status, data transfer, power supply, signaling contact)
SELECT/SET pushbutton for easy setting of the fault signaling contact on the device
Slot on the side of the device for the C-PLUG swap medium for simple device replacement in the event of a fault, or for the KEY-PLUG for adding IP routing to the device functionality
Console port (RS 232 serial interface, RJ11 cable to Sub-D (9-pole) included in scope of delivery) and management port (Ethernet interface) for on-site parameter assignment/diagnostics
The SCALANCE XR-500 switches are available with the following types of port depending on the device variant:
Four SFP+ slots for optical SFP+ or SFP plug-in transceivers (multimode and singlemode connections)
The SFP+ plug-in transceivers support 10 Gbps
The SFP plug-in transceivers support 1000 Mbps
Up to 12 slots for electrical 4-port media modules and electrical PoE 4-port media modules or optical 4-port media modules for multimode or singlemode connections; the optical media modules are available in various connection technologies
The RJ45 sockets are also available in industry-standard design with additional retaining collars for connection of the Industrial Ethernet FC RJ45 Plug 180
All electrical Ethernet interfaces support 10/100/1000 Mbps, all optical Ethernet interfaces support 100 or 1000 Mbps
Options for mounting a single/redundant power supply unit to SCALANCE XR552-12M
