Switch 560NUS12
RTU560 product line

• Unmanaged switch
• 2x SFP slot, without optical transmitter/
receiver
• Additional SFP modules are required
• 2x 10/100 BaseT port (electrical)
• Linear network structure supported

Application
The RTU component 560NUS12 is an unmanaged plug
and play 10/100 Mbps Ethernet switch providing 2 fast
Ethernet autonegotiating RJ45-ports with auto MDI/
X (automatic crossover detection and correction) and
2 fiber optic 100 Mbps slots for use with SFP (small
form-factor pluggable) modules.
The switch is intended for distributing Ethernet within
a station through the RJ45-ports. The fiber optic
ports can be used for interconnecting stations with a
maximum distance of 40 km.
Transformer Transformer
Characteristics
For documentation purposes the Ethernet ports are
labeled from 1 to 4 with 1 & 2 for the RJ45-Ports and 3
& 4 for the fiber optic SFP slots.
There is no specific Uplink port; Ports 1 and 2
respectively 3 and 4 are equal in function. Status
indicators display the link and speed status of each
port (refer to Connectors and Indicators).
The Switch learns Ethernet addresses by analyzing
received frames. Addresses learnt are stored in a
lookup-table (max. 1024 entries) that is used to
forward frames only to the correct port. A received
frame is forwarded to all ports expect the receiving

Port 1 RJ45 port if it is a broad- or multicast or if the target

address is not found in the lookup-table. If an entry in
Port 2 RJ45 the lookup-table is not refreshed by an incoming frame
Switching with the specific source address it is aged out within a
Logic maximum of 300 seconds.
Port 3 SFP Slot
The Switch is transparent for the forwarding of IEEE
Port 4 SFP Slot Alarm Logic 802.1Q VLAN frames as well as (Rapid) Spanning Tree
control frames. The switch will never change any frame
or TAG of a frame.

Quality-of-Service is supported by the Switch if a IEEE

802.1p compliant frame format is used. The Switch
separates frames into two queues: A high-priority
and a low-priority queue. Low priority corresponds
to the IEEE 802.1p Class-of-Service priorities 0 to 3, However closing a ring or being part of any other
high priority corresponds to 4 to 7. The service rate redundant construction is not supported by the
between the high- and low-priority queue is 16:1. 560NUS12 Switch. If additional ports are needed a
cascaded use of the 560NUS12 Switch is possible.
The 560NUS12 uses a power supply voltage of 5 V.
The voltage can be set to the internal RTU supply or
external supply via a Jumper.

plug capable. This also applies to the 560NUS12 board 560NUS12

itself. Figure 2: Left: Topology not applicable for 560NUS12 / Right: Typical

The Switch is not applicable for providing fault-

tolerant topologies like ring or mesh networks.

Connectors & Indicators

The 560NUS12 Switch consists of two equal RJ45
Ethernet ports and two equal SFP module slots.
Each RJ45 port can be connected with a Cat. 3 (for 10
Mbps) or Cat. 5 (for 100 Mbps) Ethernet cable with a
maximum length of 100 meters. The cable should only
be used for in-house connections. Since Auto MDI/X is
supported by the 560NUS12 Switch for the RJ45 ports
there is no need for crossover cables.

The SFP module slots can be equipped with different

modules depending on range. The modules listed
below are available and must be ordered separately.

• 500SMM02 - Short range transceiver for 2 km, for

use with multimode fiber optic cable.
• 500SSM15 - Medium range transceiver for 15 km,
for use with singlemode fiber optic cable.
• 500SSM40- Long range transceiver for 40 km, for
use with singlemode fiber optic cable.
All SFP modules operate at a wavelength of 1310 nm.

The status of any switch port can be determined by

two LED indicators which are located in each lower and
upper RJ45 jack or at the left side of the SFP slots. A
green Link LED (labeled L) indicates an active Ethernet
connection with the states described below:
• Off - No Connection
• On - Ethernet Connection Established (Link)
• Flashing - Ethernet Activity (Transmission or
Reception of Frames)
An amber Speed LED (labeled S) indicates a 100 Mbps
connection with the following states:
• Off - Ethernet Speed of 10 Mbps
• On - Ethernet Speed of 100 Mbps
The SFP module slot always operates at 100 Mbps.

If the Switch experiences a fatal error a red Error

LED (labeled ERR) along with an Alarm condition will
become active.

The alarm condition may also be signaled by an

isolated alarm relay. The relay can be deactivated by
jumper.

Topology
The 560NUS12 Switch provides a total of four Ethernet
ports for use with end devices, switches, bridges, hubs
or routers. Star or line topologies can be easily built by
the 560NUS12 Switch.
