DP83TD510E-EVM:SPE cable of 1000m or more

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: DP83TD510E-EVM, DP83TD510E

Hi,

We are verifying SPE using two sets of DP83TD510E-EVM.
I was able to confirm communication up to a cable distance of 1,000 m, but I could not communicate at 1,200 m.
We are expecting that communication will be possible even with a 1,200m cable,since the DP83TD510E is compatible with a 2,000m cable.


What you want to check
1) Is it possible to use a cable longer than 1,000 m with the DP83TD510E-EVM?
2) If you can use a cable of 1,000 m or more with DP83TD510E-EVM, would you tell me if there are any operations (register settings, etc.) that you should be careful about?

  • Hello,

    To answer your questions:

    1. Yes we have seen cables reach greater than 1700m with the Siemens 6XV1830-5EH10 cable.

    2. Some additional setting to reach this cable length are noted in this Application Note: 

    Please note, after additional testing, the datasheet was updated to include a cable reach up to 2000 meters. I will check internally if additional settings were needed to extend this cable reach. Please review the Application Note until I am able to provide further feedback.

    Thank you,

    Nikhil 

  • Hi Nikhil,
    When I fixed Master / Slave and changed it to 2.4 Vpp, I was able to confirm that communication of 2000 m or more was possible.
    I also attach the script I used.
