Features:
- Twelve RJ45 ports exchange frames with two 100 Mbit/s multimode fiber interfaces.
- Redundant 24 V DC inputs feed one unmanaged switching assembly.
- Port and supply indicators separate link activity from power or contact alarms.
Copper and fiber media share the switching fabric without a commissioning database.
The signaling contact can carry a monitored state to a separate control input.
Multiple mounting methods keep the protected enclosure within the control cabinet.
The Siemens 6GK5112-2BB00-2AA3 SCALANCE X112-2 Industrial Ethernet Switch may still be available for purchase and support from Apter Power beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

Relating copper stations to the fiber uplinks
- RJ45 channels: Twelve ports connect electrical Ethernet devices at the supported negotiated rate.
- Fiber channels: Two BFOC/ST interfaces carry fixed-rate multimode optical links.
- Switching path: Frames received on either medium are forwarded to the destination port without user programming.
- Protocol option: The documented redundancy function applies only when the surrounding network uses its required arrangement.
Keeping the switching electronics supplied
- Dual feeds: Two 24 V DC terminals provide redundant input paths to the same unit.
- Supply range: Each feed must stay within the documented DC limits.
- Power demand: Cabinet supply sizing must cover the switch current and power loss.
- Fault contact: The floating contact transfers the monitored state to external control wiring.
Reading network and device state locally
- Link state: Port indicators show whether a physical connection is established.
- Traffic state: Activity indication changes as frames pass through the associated interface.
- Supply state: Power indicators distinguish the available DC input paths.
- External alarm: The signaling contact makes the selected fault state available outside the switch.
Installing the IP30 switch in its enclosure
- Rail choices: The housing attaches to a standard DIN rail or the documented S7-300 rail.
- Wall option: Fastening points also permit the stated direct wall-mount arrangement.
- Enclosure duty: IP30 protection requires installation where cabinet conditions satisfy the application.
- Temperature range: The surrounding air must remain inside the specified operating limits.
