Schneider Electric 499NOS17100 Ethernet Switch
The 499NOS17100 is a managed Fast Ethernet switch from the Schneider Electric ConneXium family, designed for robust industrial communication networks. This modular device features five 10/100BASE-TX copper ports and two 100BASE-FX optical fiber ports, providing secure, noise-resistant data transmission across demanding automation infrastructures. It supports advanced network redundancy management for high-availability control architectures.
Network Architecture and Port Layout
The unit integrates five RJ45 copper ports (ports 1 through 5) supporting 10/100 Mbps auto-negotiation and auto-polarity, alongside two multimode fiber-optic backbone ports equipped with SC connectors (ports 6 and 7).
A built-in V.24 interface via an RJ-11 connector allows local switch configuration and management. Additionally, a 2-pole DIP switch and a dedicated standby port facilitate ring coupling and redundant network topologies, ensuring minimal downtime during communication path disruptions.
Parameter Specifications
| Parameter | Specification |
|---|---|
| Model | 499NOS17100 |
| Brand | Schneider Electric (Modicon / ConneXium) |
| Product Type | Managed Ethernet Switch (5TX/2FX) |
| Copper Ports | 5 x 10/100BASE-TX (RJ45) |
| Fiber Ports | 2 x 100BASE-FX Multimode (SC connectors) |
| Operating Voltage | 24 VDC Safety Extra-Low Voltage (SELV), redundant inputs |
| Current Consumption | 0.8 A max at 24 VDC |
| Enclosure Protection | IP20 |
| Dimensions (W x H x D) | 110 mm x 131 mm x 111 mm (approx. 4.3 in x 5.2 in x 4.4 in) |
| Weight | 0.7 kg (1.54 lbs) |
Installation and Power Requirements
The switch is engineered for standard DIN-rail mounting inside industrial control cabinets. It requires a 24 VDC safety extra-low voltage power supply, supporting redundant supply wiring via a 5-pin screw-locking terminal block with integrated fault-monitoring indicator contacts.
To ensure proper thermal dissipation and reliable operation, maintain a minimum vertical clearance of 10.0 cm (3.94 in) above and below the unit, while side-to-side clearance can be zero.
