Description of SIEMENS SCALANCE X101-1
Specification
The SCALANCE X-100 product line offers unmanaged Industrial Ethernet media converters that efficiently convert electrical signals into optical signals within Industrial Ethernet networks at 10/100 Mbps. Ideal for line, star, and ring topologies, these media converters are designed for cost-effective integration in control cabinets. Featuring a rugged metal enclosure, the SCALANCE X-100 converters are optimized for space-saving mounting on standard rails, SIMATIC S7-300 DIN rails, or directly on walls. They provide robust node connections using industry-standard RJ45 connectors, with additional strain relief. The devices support a redundant power supply and offer diagnostics via LEDs for power, link status, and data communication. An error-signaling contact, adjustable using the SET button, further enhances the ease of use.
These media converters are well-suited for linking single remote terminal units or network segments through optical paths and can be integrated into redundant ring or standby link configurations. The SIPLUS SCALANCE X-100 variants, with conformal-coated PCBs, are designed for harsh environments, ensuring reliable operation under challenging conditions. The enclosure dimensions match those of the SIMATIC S7-300, making these converters perfect for integration with SIMATIC S7-300 automation solutions.
