RX1511 is https://192.168.0.2.
For more information about available ports, refer to Chapter 3, Communication Ports.
Section 2.6
Cabling Recommendations
Siemens recommends using SIMATIC NET industrial Ethernet shielded cables for all Ethernet ports.
Refer to the following sections for further recommendations and considerations:
• Section 2.6.1, “Protection On Twisted-Pair Data Ports”
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.
The IEEE 802.3ab Gigabit Ethernet standard defines 1000 Mbit/s Ethernet communications over distances of up
to 100 m (328 ft) using all 4 pairs in category 5 (or higher) balanced, unshielded twisted-pair cabling. For wiring
guidelines, system designers and integrators should refer to the Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA)
TIA/EIA-568-A wiring standard that characterizes minimum cabling performance specifications required for proper
Gigabit Ethernet operation. For reliable, error-free data communication, new and pre-existing communication
paths should be verified for TIA/EIA-568-A compliance.
The following table summarizes the relevant cabling standards:
Chapter 2
Cabling Category
< 5NoNew wiring infrastructure required.
5YesVerify TIA/EIA-568-A compliance.
5eYesNo action required. New installations should be designed with Category 5e or higher.
6YesNo action required.
> 6YesConnector and wiring standards to be determined.
1000Base-
TX Compliant
Required Action
Follow these recommendations for copper data cabling in high electrical noise environments:
• Data cable lengths should be as short as possible, preferably 3 m (10 ft) in length. Copper data cables should
not be used for inter-building communications.
• Power and data cables should not be run in parallel for long distances, and should be installed in separate
conduits. Power and data cables should intersect at 90° angles when necessary to reduce inductive coupling.
The RX1511 can be equipped with various types of communication ports to enhance its abilities and
performance. Each set of communication ports is part of a field replaceable module that makes switching ports
fast and easy.
Use the ROX II software to determine which ports are equipped on the device. For more information, refer to the
ROX II User Guide for the RX1511.
Modules can be installed in any one of the available slots in the RX1511 chassis.
NOTE
Only one T1/E1 module is allowed.

The following sections describe the available ports in more detail:
• Section 3.1, “Copper Ethernet Ports”
• Section 3.2, “Fiber Optic Ethernet Ports”
• Section 3.3, “SFP Optic Ethernet Ports”
• Section 3.4, “WAN Modules”
• Section 3.5, “Serial Ports”
• Section 3.6, “Cellular Modem Modules”
• Section 3.7, “DDS (Digital Data Services) Modules”
The RX1511 supports several 10/100Base-TX Ethernet ports with RJ-45 or M12 (bypass or non-bypass)
connectors. The RJ-45 and M12 connectors are directly connected to the chassis ground on the device and can
accept CAT-5 shielded twisted-pair (STP) cables.
CAUTION!
Contamination hazard – risk of damage to equipment. M12 modules are shipped with internal O-rings
and dust caps to prevent the ingress of dirt and debris that may damage the port. Make sure the Orings and dust caps are installed on all unused M12 ports.

Fiber Optic Ethernet Port Specifications
The following sections detail fiber optic specifications for ports that can be equipped on the RX1511. The user
determines the type of optics at the time of ordering, and can determine the ports installed on a particular unit by
reading the factory data file via the ROX II user interface. The specifications are organized by order code. Module
order codes are contained within each unit when it is assembled and configured at the factory. For information
about obtaining factory configuration data, refer to the ROX II User Guide for the RX1511.
• Maximum segment length is greatly dependent on factors such as fiber quality, and the number
of patches and splices. Consult a Siemens sales associate when determining maximum segment
distances.
• All optical power numbers are listed as dBm averages.
• F51 transceivers are rated for -40 to 85 °C (-40 to 185 °F).
