3.1.3 RJ11 Port
EoVDSL data ports allow connection using RJ11 male connectors. The figure below shows the
RJ11 port pin-out and LEDs. On units with Universal EoVDSL ports the Master LED can be toggled
on or off depending on whether the port is set as a Master or Slave. On units with Long-Reach
EoVDSL ports the Master unit will have the LED permanently on while the Slave unit will have the
LED permanently off.

3.1.4 Configuration & Setup
If the units have Universal EoVDSL ports, use the software to configure one unit as a Master and
the other as a Slave. If the units have a Long-Reach EoVDSL port, no Master/Slave software
configuration is necessary since the ports will already be fixed as Master or Slave. Once configured
as Master and Slave and connected together, the units will then attempt to achieve the maximum
speed based on the line length and conditions. 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.
