Testimonials

"We chose RuggedCom technology for our substations because it is specifically designed for the substation environment and has been tested to the same standards as protective relaying devices. Substation automation and peer-to-peer protective relaying both figure strongly in our plans, and therefore substation-hardened equipment is more than a nice-to-have — it's a must!"

"Ruggedcom switches were selected for use in the USAF Shemya Power Plant. Shemya Island is located at the end of the Aleutian Chain approximately 300 miles off the coast of Siberia.

The redundant switches connect multiple protective relays to the control room where on line data from the relays is used to operate the power plant.The power plant provides prime power to extensive National Missile Defense Authority facilities on the island.

All electronics provided to the USAF were disassembled, quality inspected and burned in at the Chief Engineers office in Anchorage.

Reliability was not an option."

"We deployed RuggedCom's RuggedServer™ RS400 throughout the Madison, Wisconsin highway system to provide video feeds, and real-time traffic monitoring in strategic locations. The RS400 combines both a managed Ethernet switch and a serial-device-server in a single, compact, industrial device. We're very pleased with how this all-in-one product has made it cost effective and incredibly easy for us to connect our serial device directly to the Ethernet traffic control network."
