Design
The SCALANCE X-200 Industrial Ethernet switches with a rug-
ged metal housing are optimized for mounting on a standard rail
and an S7-300 rail. Direct wall mounting in various positions is
also possible. Thanks to the S7-300 housing dimensions, the de-
vices are suitable for integration into an automation solution with
S7-300 components.
The switches with IP20/IP30 degree of protection feature:
•
A 4-pole terminal block for connecting the redundant supply
voltage (2 x 24 V DC)
•
A row of LEDs to indicate the status information (power, link
status, data exchange, power supply, signaling contact)
•
A 2-pole terminal block for connecting the floating signaling
contact
•
A SET button for on-site configuration of the signaling contact
The SCALANCE X208PRO with IP65/67 degree of protection
features:
•
2 x M12 interfaces for connecting the redundant supply
voltage (2 x 24 V DC)
•
A row of LEDs to indicate the status information (power, link
status, data exchange, power supply, signaling contact)
•
An M12 interface for connecting the isolated signaling contact
The SCALANCE X-200 switches are available with the following
port types:
•
10/100BaseTX, RJ45 or M12 connection;
RJ45 or M12 port, automatic detection of the data rate (10 or
100 Mbit/s), with autosensing and autocrossover functions
for connecting IE FC cables using IE FC RJ45 Plug 180 or
IE FC M12 Plug PRO up to 100 m.
•
100BaseFX, BFOC connection technique;
BFOC ports for direct connection to Industrial Ethernet glass
fiber-optic cables up to 5 km (multimode FOC) or up to 26 km
(singlemode FOC) for configuring line, ring and star topol-
ogies.

Function
•
Configuring electrical and optical Industrial Ethernet line, star
and ring topologies
•
Fast redundancy in the ring with
-
High Speed Redundancy Protocol (HRP); up to 0.3 seconds
for reconfiguration of the ring with 50 switches in the ring
- PROFINET MRP (Media Redundancy Protocol); up to
0.2 seconds for reconfiguration of the ring with 50 switches
in the ring
•
The functioning of the ring is continuously monitored by the
integrated redundancy manager. It recognizes failure of a
transmission path in the ring or failure of a SCALANCE X-200
and activates the substitute path within 0.3 seconds or
0.2 seconds with MRP
•
Use in ring topologies (100 Mbit/s) together with
SCALANCE X-300, SCALANCE X-400 and SCALANCE X-500
•
Uncrossed connecting cables can be used due to
Autocrossover function integrated in the ports
•
Easy diagnostics using signaling contact, SNMP and Web
browser
•
Easy copper cable diagnostics with Web browser for local-
izing cable breaks
•
Integration into the diagnostics of a PROFINET I/O controller
with expanded diagnostics functions for a consistent
diagnostics concept, including network infrastructure
•
Diagnosis of data traffic by means of a parameterizable mirror
port with a standard commercial network analyzer
•
Optimized support of PROFINET real-time communication
(RT) through prioritizing
•
Fast device replacement in the event of a fault by using the
optional C-PLUG swap medium (not included in scope of
supply)
Network topology and network configuration
The Industrial Ethernet SCALANCE X-200 switches with IP30
degree of protection are usually installed in a control cabinet
together with the stations to be connected. Electrical and optical
versions can be installed together in star, line and ring topolo-
gies. The SCALANCE X208PRO is designed for installation
outside the control cabinet.
When configuring the network, it is necessary to observe the
following boundary conditions:
•
Length of the TP cable between two SCALANCE X switches:
- Max. 100 m with IE FC cable and IE FC RJ45 Plug 180 or
IE FC M12 Plug PRO
- Max. 10 m using patches with TP cord
•
Length of the optical cables
- Max. 5 000 m with Industrial Ethernet glass fiber-optic
cables (multimode)
- Max. 26 000 m with Industrial Ethernet glass fiber-optic
cables (singlemode)
•
IP Address:
The IP address is assigned by means of the DHCP (Dynamic
Host Configuration Protocol). If there is no corresponding
server in the network, the IP address can be assigned using
the supplied software tool PST (Primary Setup Tool) or STEP 7.
