Communication Ports
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). 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 (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.

All RJ11 connectors conform to the standard telephony pin configuration.

EoVDSL Wiring
VDSL operates over 2-wire Category 3 (CAT-3) or higher twisted-pair wiring. Other twisted-pair wiring with
similar characteristics may work, although the performance will vary depending on the cable characteristics and
distance.
When wiring EoVDSL ports, note the following:
