1 Product Overview
1.1 Functional Overview
The RuggedServer RS400 Series is an industrially hardened, serial device server with
an integrated, fully managed, Ethernet switch, designed to operate reliably in electrically
harsh and climatically demanding environments. The RS400 Series consists of the
RS400 and RS401 which are functionally equivalent differing only mechanically in
shape. Featuring an integrated 4 port serial server, a 4 port managed Ethernet switch,
and an optional v.90 modem, the RS400 Series is able to interconnect multiple types of
intelligent electronic devices (IEDs) that have different methods of communications.
Using the RS400 Series results in fewer connectivity devices (which reduces overall
system costs) and extends the useful life of existing legacy IEDs (which minimizes
capital expenditure for new equipment).
The RS400 Series 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. The RS400 Series meets or exceeds
a wide range of industry standards including IEC61850, IEEE1613, IEC61000-6-2,
IEEE61800-3, and NEMA TS-2. The RS400 Series also features a wide operating
temperature range of -40°C to +85°C allowing it to be installed in virtually any location.

Figure 7: RS400 Series Power Supply Inputs
The RS400 Series power supply inputs are connected as follows:
1. +/H = DC (+) / AC (Hot) is connected to the positive (+) terminal if the power
source is DC or to the (Hot) terminal if the power source is AC.
2. -/N = DC (-) / AC (Neutral) is connected to the negative (-) terminal if the power
source is DC or to the (Neutral) terminal if the power source is AC.
3. Surge Ground is connected to the Chassis Ground via a braided cable or other
appropriate grounding wire. Surge Ground is used as the ground conductor for all
surge and transient suppression circuitry internal to the RS400 Series.
4. Chassis Ground is connected to the Safety Ground terminal for AC inputs or the
equipment ground bus for DC inputs.
NOTES:
1) 88-300VDC Equipment: A 300VDC appropriately rated circuit breaker must be
installed.
2) 100-240VAC Equipment: A 250VAC appropriately rated circuit breaker must be
installed.
3) A circuit breaker is not required for 12, 24 or 48 VDC rated equipment
4) Power input terminals have reverse polarity protection for 12, 24 & 48 VDC rated
equipment.
5) Equipment must be installed according to the applicable country wiring codes.

2.3 HIPOT (Dielectric Strength) Testing
Units which are to be “HIPOT” tested in the field must have the braided ground cable(s)
disconnected as shown in Figure 2.4 during the HIPOT test. This is required in order to
prevent the transient/surge suppression circuitry, which is connected to Surge Ground,
from being activated during the HIPOT test.

2.4 Failsafe Relay Outputs
The “Failsafe” output relay is provided to signal critical error conditions that may occur
on the RS400 Series. The contacts are energized upon power up of the unit and remain
energized until a critical error occurs. One common application for this output is to signal
an alarm if a power failure or removal of control power occurs.

2.6.5 RS485 Wiring
Each RS485 port can communicate to multiple RS485 devices by daisy chaining devices
over a single twisted pair with transmit and receive signals on the same two wires (half
duplex). The following guidelines should be followed to ensure reliable continuous
communication:
1. To minimize the effects of ambient electrical noise, shielded cabling is
recommended.
2. The correct polarity must be observed throughout a single daisy chain.
3. The number of devices wired should not exceed 32, and total distance should be
less than 4000 feet (at 100 kbps).
4. The Common terminals should be connected to the common wire inside the
shield.
5. The shield should be connected to earth ground at a single point to avoid loop
currents
6. The twisted pair should be terminated at each end of the chain.
The figure below shows the recommended RS485 wiring.
Figure 22: Conceptual recommended RS485 wiring diagram
NOTES:
1. On RS400 Series units with Phoenix ports, the Common (Isolated Ground) port is
marked “Gnd”. See the Phoenix ports section for details.
2. On RS400 Series units with Phoenix ports, internal termination is provided. See
the Phoenix ports section for details.
3. On RS400 Series units with RS232/RS485/RS422 DB9 or RJ-45 ports then no
internal termination is provided. See the DB9 & RJ-45 port sections for details.

RuggedCom®
RuggedServer™ RS400 Family Installation Guide rev109
2.6.6 Serial Port Transient Protection
RuggedCom does not recommend the use of copper cabling of any length for critical
real-time substation automation applications. However, transient suppression circuitry is
present on all copper ports to protect against damage from electrical transients and to
ensure IEC 61850-3 and IEEE 1613 Class 1 conformance. This means that during the
transient event communications errors or interruptions may occur but recovery is
automatic.
RuggedCom also does not recommended to use these ports to interface to field devices
across distances which could produce high levels of ground potential rise, (i.e. greater
than 2500V) during line to ground fault conditions.

2.7.1 RJ-45 Twisted-Pair Ports
The RS400 Series can be equipped with a number of 10/100BaseTX ports that allow
connection to standard CAT-5 UTP cable with RJ-45 male connectors. These ports
have auto-crossover, auto-negotiation, and auto-polarity features. The RJ-45
receptacles used can accept and take advantage of screened (commonly known as
“shielded”) cabling. Figure 2.8.1.1 shows the RJ-45 port pin-out.

2.7.2 Ethernet Port Transient Protection
RuggedCom does not recommend the use of copper cabling of any length for critical
real-time substation automation applications. However, transient suppression circuitry is
present on all copper ports to protect against damage from electrical transients and to
ensure IEC 61850-3 and IEEE 1613 Class 1 conformance. This means that during the
transient event communications errors or interruptions may occur but recovery is
automatic.
RuggedCom also does not recommended to use these ports to interface to field devices
across distances which could produce high levels of ground potential rise, (i.e. greater
than 2500V) during line to ground fault conditions.

2.7.3 Fiber Optic Ports
The RS400 Series can be equipped with several different types of fiber optic ports. The
Transmit (TX) and Receive (RX) connections of each port must be properly connected
and matched for proper link and operation. The drawings in the following figures show
each fiber optical connector style with a side and top view to allow the user to identify the
proper cable connection orientation.
