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.

Precision Time Protocol (PTP) Ports
The optional Precision Time Protocol (PTP) card for the RX1000 provides accurate time synchronization across
local and wide area networks. The PTP card is capable of using a variety of time synchronization methods
including Network Time Protocol (NTP), IRIG-B, and IEEE 1588, making it a flexible product for new and existing
installations.

Communication Ports
NTP is the standard for synchronizing the clocks of computer systems throughout the Internet and is suitable for
systems that require accuracies in the order of 1 ms. IRIG-B time synchronization relies on the Global Positioning
System (GPS) as the source of accurate time and requires an external GPS antenna input to provide accurate
time signals on the order of 100 µs. IEEE 1588 is designed to fill a niche not well served by either of the two
dominant protocols, NTP and IRIG-B. IEEE 1588 is designed for local systems requiring accuracies on the order
of 100 nanoseconds. IEEE 1588 is also designed for applications that cannot bear the cost of a GPS receiver at
each node or for which GPS signals are inaccessible.
The PTP card is an ideal product for use in existing installations already well served by NTP and/or GPS. It also
provides a migration path for the use of the new IEEE 1588 standard. As more end devices enter the market with
IEEE 1588 compatibility, this card provides an easy transition to this new time synchronization standard.
The following sections describe the PTP card in more detail:
• Section 3.7.1, “IRIG-B Outputs”
• Section 3.7.2, “Pulse-Per-Second (PPS) Output”
• Section 3.7.3, “GPS Antenna Installation Recommendations”
Chapter 3
Section 3.7.1
IRIG-B Outputs
The PTP Card supports both IRIG-B outputs in both Amplitude Modulated (AM) and Pulse Width Modulation
(PWM) formats. Specifically, for the AM output, IRIG-B122 and IRIG-B123 are supported. For the PWM output,
IRIG-B002 and IRIG-B003 are supported. Enabling of the AM and PWM outputs is done through software.
The number of IRIG-B devices that can be connected to the AM or PWM source is dependent on the cabling type
and length as well as the input impedances of the devices. Figure 16 shows a simplified circuit diagram of the
interface between the IRIG-B source and connected devices.

The maximum number of devices (N) that can be connected to the source is determined by checking if the source
current (IS) required to drive the connected devices is less than the maximum drive current the source can
provide, and verifying that the load voltage (VL) the connected devices see is greater than the minimum required
voltage.
For specifications for the IRIG-B outputs, refer to Section 4.5, “IRIG-B Output Specifications”.
Section 3.7.2
Pulse-Per-Second (PPS) Output
The PTP card supports one Pulse-Per-Second (PPS) output. When enabled through ROX, the card outputs a 5 V
pulse every second.
Section 3.7.3
GPS Antenna Installation Recommendations
The signals received from the GPS satellite network are at a frequency of 1575.42 MHz with a minimum power
of -162 dBW. The GPS antenna must have a clear view of the sky in order to receive the low power signals and
track the maximum number of satellites. Rooftops or other structures clear of obstructions and with a clear view
of the horizon are ideal.
Elements of a typical GPS antenna system include:
• Active GPS Antenna (required)
• Coaxial cable to connect the elements (required)
• Lightning arrestor (optional)
• Line Amplifier or Filter (optional)
To establish proper GPS signal reception, the overall system of antenna, cabling, lightning arrestor, line amplifier
and filters requires a relative gain which should be greater than 5 dBi but less than 18 dBi (to avoid signal
saturation at the receiver input).

The following sections describe each component in the GPS antenna system in more detail:
• Section 3.7.3.1, “GPS Antenna”
• Section 3.7.3.2, “Antenna Cabling”
• Section 3.7.3.3, “Lightning Considerations”
• Section 3.7.3.4, “Line Amplification and Filtering”
Section 3.7.3.1
GPS Antenna
There are two major types of GPS antenna: passive and active. A passive antenna requires no power and is
an option when signal strength is not a concern. An active antenna has a built in Low Noise Amplifier (LNA)
to increase the strength of the signal, and to compensate for the signal loss in a long cable connection. Active
antennas are used when the antenna input is connected to the receiver through a coaxial cable (usually longer
than 3 m) or any high loss transmission path.
NOTE
• The PTP card’s GPS input provides 5 VDC at up to 10 mA to power the antenna.
• Best results can be achieved with a total gain of 16 dB (includes antenna gain, cable loss, lightning
arrestor loss, line amplifier gain and filter loss) at the antenna input.
Chapter 3
The PTP Card requires an active antenna with the following specifications:
Characteristic Active Antenna
Polarization Right-Hand Circular Polarized
Receive Frequency 1.57542 GHz ± 1.023 MHz
Power Supply 5 VDC
DC Current < 10 mA at 3 VDC
Antenna Gain Select antenna gain based on system configuration
Total Gain at PTP GPS Input (includes antenna gain, cable
loss, lightning arrestor loss, line amplifier gain and filter loss)
Axial Ratio < 3 dB
Output VSWR < 2.5
Section 3.7.3.2
Total Gain ≤ 18 dBi
Antenna Cabling
Cable Impedance: Siemens recommends low loss 50 Ω coaxial cabling.
Cable Delay: Using any length of coaxial cable will add some time delay to the GPS signal which degrades
the accuracy of the calculated time and position. The time delay is dependent on the type of dielectric material
in the cable and ranges from 1 to 2 ns/ft. Siemens provides a method to account for this delay through the
web management interface by entering the time delay into the cable compensation box under PTP General
Configuration. The table below gives some examples of the delay that can be expected based on the dielectric
type.

Lightning Considerations
Although it is not possible to protect the antenna from a direct lighting strike, the antenna and connected
components can be protected from secondary affects through installation location and protection devices.
Install the antenna at least 15 meters away from and lower than any structures that attract lightning. GPS
antenna damage is usually not the result of a direct lightning strike, but due to high currents induced by the
effects of a lightning strike on a nearby structure. Siemens also recommends installing lightning arrestors in the
antenna line to protect the receiver and connected devices. If a lightning arrestor is installed it is important to
ensure that it has a low impedance path to ground.
Section 3.7.3.4
Line Amplification and Filtering
Although an active antenna has gain, depending on the length of the coaxial cable used it may not be enough in
which case a line amplifier will be required as well.
Most active antennas include filters. However, if there is a high potential for electromagnetic interference, such
as from the near field of a radio transmitter, though the antenna system, additional antenna line filtering may be
necessary.
Section 3.8
RS232 External Modem Ports

Connecting Multiple RS485 Devices
Each RS485 port can communicate with multiple RS485 devices by wiring devices together in sequence over a
single twisted pair with transmit and receive signals on the same two wires (half duplex). For reliable, continuous
communication, adhere to the following guidelines:
• To minimize the effects of ambient electrical noise, use shielded cabling.
• The correct polarity must be observed throughout a single sequence or ring.
• The number of devices wired should not exceed 32, and total distance should be less than 1219 m (4000 ft) at
100 kbps.
• The Common terminals should be connected to the common wire inside the shield.
• The shield should be connected to earth ground at a single point to avoid loop currents.
• The twisted pair should be terminated at each end of the chain.
The following shows the recommended RS485 wiring.
