“downstream” while data flowing from the Slave to the Master is designated “upstream”. RuggedCom offers two flavours 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. Long-Reach EoVDSL ports are fixed as either Master or Slave but offer asymmetric data rates up to 40 Mbps with distances up to 5 km.
The unit’s link LED may flash on and off several times before settling on a final link speed and declaring the port up. For detailed configuration options please consult the Rugged Operating System (ROS) Software User Guide. 2010 RuggedCom Inc. Rev107...

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 figure below shows the recommended RS485 wiring. Figure 18: Conceptual recommended RS485 wiring diagram 2010 RuggedCom Inc. Rev107...
RS900 Family Installation Guide 5 Transient Protection RuggedCom does not recommend the use of copper cabling of any length for critical real-time substation automation applications. However, transient suppression circuitry is present on all copper ports to protect against damage from electrical transients and to ensure IEC 61850-3 and IEEE 1613 Class 1 conformance.
