Rugged means it's IEEE1613 compliant. For the electric utility companies these devices go in substations so they need to keep forwarding packets when introduced in those environments with higher temperatures and a lot of EMI (Electro Magnetic Interference) - can't blame it on the solar flare theory. ;-)
Also utilities are beginning to run their protective relay protocols through IP networks so they are looking for reliability or risk blowing out $2mil transformers. I've been testing the LN2600 and yes it does run the SRX code.
