DeltaV RM100 Base Smart Switches and Media Modules

Specifications

The DeltaV RM Smart Switches consist of four types of base switches and, depending upon the switch type, up to two pluggable media modules. The media modules provide a variety of pluggable media options. Table: RM Media Modules describes the media modules. The RM-100 Base Smart Switch-RP supports redundant input power. The RM Smart Switches can be mounted on a 19 inch rack or on a wall.

Table: DeltaV RM Base Smart Switches
Model Type
RM100-Base Smart Switch
  • 2, gigabit Ethernet combo ports
  • 8, fast Ethernet ports
  • 2 sockets for media modules for an additional 8 or 16 ports
RM100-Base Smart Switch-RP
  • 2, gigabit Ethernet combo ports
  • 8, fast Ethernet ports
  • 2 sockets for media modules for an additional 8 or 16 ports

Redundant input power.

RM100-8TX
  • 8, 10/100Mbit twisted pair ports with RJ45 connectors
  • 2, 10/100/1000Mbit twisted pair ports with RJ45 connectors
  • 2, 100/1000Mbit SFP-based ports

This is a fixed-configuration switch; no additional media modules can be added to it.

Note

Either the 10/100/1000Mbit twisted pair ports or the SFP ports can be used. Both port types cannot be used at the same time.

RM100-24TX
  • 24, 10/100Mbit twisted pair ports with RJ45 connectors
  • 2, 10/100/1000Mbit twisted pair ports with RJ45 connectors
  • 2, 100/1000Mbit SFP-based ports

This is a fixed-configuration switch; no additional media modules can be added to it.

Note

Either the 10/100/1000Mbit twisted pair ports or the SFP ports can be used. Both port types cannot be used at the same time.
