10.1.5.7 Bus cable
To meet ISO 898, a bus cable with a characteristic impedance of 120 W should be used.
The maximum usable cable length for reliable communication decreases with increasing
transmission speed. As a guide, you can use the following values which we have measu

red, but they are not to be taken as assured limits.

Absolute max.
voltage range
-25 V to +18 V (CAN_H, CAN_L)
The voltages for CAN_H and CAN_L refer to the ground pin
of the transceiver. The voltage is higher than that on the
V-terminal by the amount of the forward voltage drop of the
Schottky diode. This voltage drop must be < 0.6V.
Grounding:
The DeviceNet network must only be grounded at one point, to avoid ground loops. The
circuitry for the physical layer in all devices are referenced to the V-bus signal. The
ground connection is made via the power supply for the bus system. The current flowing
between V- and ground must not flow through any device other than the power supply.
Bus topology:
The DeviceNet medium utilizes a linear bus topology. Termination resistors are required
at each end of the connecting cable. Stub cables are permitted up to a length of 6 meters,
so that at least one node can be connected.
Termination resistors:
DeviceNet requires a termination at each end of the connecting cable.
These resistors must meet the following requirements: 120W, 1% metal-film, 1/4 W
