3.1 Functional Overview & Feature Highlights

The RuggedSwitch™ M2100 is an MIL-STD hardened, fully managed, modular, Ethernet switch specifically designed to operate reliably in harsh environments.

The M2100's superior ruggedized hardware design coupled with the embedded Rugged Operating System (ROS™) provides improved system reliability and advanced cyber security and networking features making it ideally suited for creating secure Ethernet networks for mission critical, real-time, control applications.

The M2100's modular flexibility offers 10BaseFL /100BaseFX/1000BaseSX/1000BaseLX fiber and 10/100/1000BaseTX copper port combinations, and can support multiple fiber connectors (ST, LC, Micro-D) without loss of port density, making it highly versatile for any application. The M2100 is packaged in a rugged galvanized steel enclosure and provides MIL-STD 901D shock and vibration immunity.
