Introduction
The RUGGEDCOM RS930W is an industrially hardened Ethernet switch which integrates an IEEE 802.11b/g
Wireless Access Point, with a fully managed wired six-port Ethernet switch providing six Fast Ethernet copper
only ports and one Ethernet over VDSL (EoVDSL) interface. With the installation of the RS930W wireless access
point, a network designer will achieve the integration of wired and wireless networks. The RS930W can be
configured as an access, client or bridge device. In addition, the EoVDSL can be used to connect a remote
location back to the central control room using existing telephone grade cable (or other legacy serial cabling) at
distances of up to 5 km (3 mi).
Designed to operate reliably in harsh industrial environments the RS930W provides a high level of immunity
to electromagnetic interference and heavy electrical surges typical of environments found in electric utility
substations, factory floors or in curb-side traffic control cabinets. An operating temperature range of -40 to 85 °C
(-40 to 185 °F) coupled with hazardous location certification, optional conformal coating and a galvanized steel
enclosure allows the RS930W to be placed in almost any location.
The RS930W functions as a standalone IEEE 802.11b/g access point for wireless clients providing wireless data
rates of up to 54 Mbps. All wireless communications are protected by the very latest robust security networks
features including strong encryption protocols using WPA with TKIP and even WPA2/802.11i with AES support.

Section 2.5
Cabling Recommendations
Siemens does not recommend the use of copper cabling of any length for critical, real-time substation automation
applications. All copper Ethernet ports on RUGGEDCOM products include transient suppression circuitry
to protect against damage from electrical transients and conform with IEC 61850-3 and IEEE 1613 Class 1
standards. This means that during a transient electrical event, communications errors or interruptions may occur,
but recovery is automatic.
Siemens also does not recommend using copper Ethernet ports to interface with devices in the field across
distances that could produce high levels of ground potential rise (i.e. greater than 2500 V), during line-to-ground
fault conditions.

Section 3.3
EoVDSL Ports
Ethernet over VDSL (EoVDSL) ports operate in pairs with one device configured as the Master and the other as
the Slave. In VDSL (Very-high-bit-rate Digital Subscriber Line), the terms Central Office (CO) or Line Termination
(LT) are used interchangeably for the Master and the terms Customer Premise Equipment (CPE) or Network
14 Wireless Ethernet Ports
Page 21
RUGGEDCOM RS930W
16
Installation Guide
Communication Ports
Termination (NT) are used interchangeably for the Slave. The Master device dictates the line configuration
settings to the Slave so all EoVDSL configuration is done on the Master. Data flowing from the Master to the
Slave is designated downstream while data flowing from the Slave to the Master is designated upstream.
Siemens offers two flavors of VDSL: Universal EoVDSL and Long-Reach EoVDSL. Universal EoVDSL ports are
Master/Slave selectable and offer symmetric data rates up to 35 Mbps with distances up to 2.5 km (1.6 mi). LongReach EoVDSL ports are fixed as either Master or Slave but offer asymmetric data rates up to 40 Mbps with
distances up to 5 km (3.1 mi).
The Universal and Long-Reach EoVDSL ports are physically indistinguishable from each other. However, the port
type can be determined either from the order code or through ROS.
EoVDSL ports can be connected using RJ11 male connectors. Each EoVDSL port has a Link/Act LED and a
Master LED. On devices with Universal EoVDSL ports, the Master LED can be toggled on or off depending on
whether the port is set to be a Master or Slave. On devices with Long-Reach EoVDSL ports, the Master LED will
be on all the time if the device is set to be the Master, or off if the device is set to be the Slave.

similar characteristics may work, although the performance will vary depending on the cable characteristics and
distance.
When wiring EoVDSL ports, note the following:
• Twisted-pairs are an effective way of reducing both magnetic and capacitive interference because they reduce
the magnetic loop area to nearly zero and maintain a consistent distribution of capacitances to both ground and
other sources. Therefore, make sure twisting is consistent throughout cable length.
• Open leads (also known as bridged taps or drop-lines) along the length of the cable will cause an impedance
mismatch and result in VDSL signal degradation.
• Make sure the cable impedance is consistent throughout the run. Avoid mixing different wiring (e.g. wiring
with different gages) in cable runs, as this will cause an impedance mismatch and result in VDSL signal
degradation.
• Make sure wiring is adequately separated between power and control circuits. Switching spikes and surges in
power and control circuits can couple noise onto the VDSL line, causing interruptions in communications.
• Lower speeds are less susceptible to interference and will transmit greater distances over the same wiring than
higher speeds. Use the minimum speed that will provide adequate data transfer speed.
Section 3.3.2
Configuration and Setup
If the RS930W and another device both have Universal EoVDSL ports, configure one device to be the Master
and the other the Slave. If both devices have a Long-Reach EoVDSL port, no Master/Slave configuration is
necessary, since the ports will already be fixed as Master or Slave. Once configured and connected together,
each device will attempt to achieve the maximum speed based on the line length and conditions. The device's
link LED may flash on and off several times before setting on a final link speed and declaring the port up. For
more information about configuring the RS930W, refer to the ROS User Guide for RS900LW/RS930LW.
Section 3.3.3
EoVDSL Performance
The EoVDSL ports can be configured to operate in one of two modes: Auto Mode (default) and Manual Mode. In
Auto Mode, the device will step through the different speeds and automatically select the best bit-rate based on
the current line conditions. In Manual Mode, the user can select one of the speed settings and the device will only
attempt to attain the set speed. If the line conditions degrade (reducing the SNR or Signal to Noise Ratio), but the
device is able to maintain the link, an alarm will be triggered to notify the user of the reduced SNR. By configuring
the Rescan Mode parameter in ROS, the user can control at which point the scan process will be restarted
when the line conditions degrade. If Link only is selected, the device will restart the scan process if the line
conditions degrade such that the device is unable to maintain the current link. If Link or SNR is selected, the
device will restart the scan process if either the SNR has dropped below a pre-defined acceptable level or when
the device is unable to maintain the current link, or whichever comes first. Note that if Mode is set to Manual
Mode, the restart of the scan process will only attempt to attain the set speed in Manual Mode.
For information about configuring EoVDSL, refer to the RUGGEDCOM ROS for the RS930W.

NOTE
• EoVDSL ports are designed to be used on private communications lines for point-to-point
connections and are not to be connected to the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN).
• To reduce the risk of fire, use only No. 26 AWG or larger telecommunication line cord.
• In Manual Mode, assuming the distance can support the speed setting, the time to port up is typically
15-30 seconds.
On 24 American Wire Gage (AWG) Polyethylene Insulated Cable (PIC) twisted-pair wiring, the following
performance is typical with Universal EoVDSL ports:
