Application
The SCALANCE XR-500 switches are ideal for use in industrial
networks and for integrating the industrial network into an exist-
ing corporate network. From the control level to the management
level, the switch handles the networking of plant sections as well
as distributed field devices and ensures high plant availability
with extensive diagnostics options and high transmission
speeds. Thanks to the scalability of the basic unit and the option-
ally available Layer 3 switching function, the network can be
established specially for the relevant application, or adapted
and expanded at any time.
The SCALANCE XR-500 switches are suitable for establishing
electrical and optical Industrial Ethernet line, star or ring
topologies with four integral SFP+ slots that can be optionally
equipped with SFP+ plug-in transceivers (10 Gbit/s) or SFP
plug-in transceivers (1 000 Mbit/s), and up to 12 media module
slots that can be optionally equipped with electrical and/or opti-
cal 4-port media modules. Thanks to data transfer rates of up to
10 Gbit/s, the switches can be used as an Industrial Ethernet
backbone switch and as a hub in the plant bus (redundant
connection possible).
The use of media modules or SFP+/SFP enables the following:
•
Extension of networks by subsequent insertion of additional
media modules in unused media module slots
•
Changing of cabling technology, e.g. conversion from copper
to fiber-optic cables, or from multimode to singlemode FOC
•
Changing of the data transfer rate, e.g. from 1 000 Mbit/s to
10 Gbit/s

Design
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 rear of the SCALANCE XR-500 or con-
nected 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
port types:
•
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 1 000 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
10/100/1 000 Mbps,
all optical Ethernet interfaces support 100 or 1 000 Mbps
