Segment cable length
2. Check whether the segment cable length is complied with.
The segment cable length is determined by the used cable cross-section and the number
of nodes. If no repeaters are used, the segment cable length corresponds to the total cable
length.

Tab. 6-2 Segment cable length
3. Comparison of the two determined values.
If the value determined from Tab. 6-2 is lower than the total cable length to be
implemented from Tab. 6-1, repeaters must be used. Repeaters divide the total cable
length into segments.

Check the use of repeaters
Note!
The use of another repeater is recommended as
ƒ Service interface
Advantage: Trouble-free connection to running bus operation is possible.
ƒ Calibration interface
Advantage: The calibration / programming unit remains electrically
isolated.
