Constructing Networks with Repeater Units

Section 3-4

Partial Conversion to Optical Fiber

Combining T-Branch Wiring (2-stage Repeater) and Partial Optical Fiber

Note When constructing a network using Repeater Units, each segment must sat-

isfy all of the following requirements:

• The total number of Controller Link Units, Support Boards, and Repeater

Units within a single segment must not exceed 32.

• The total cable length of a single segment must not exceed the specified

value. (500 m at 2 Mbps; 800 m at 1 Mbps; and 1 km at 500 Kbps.)

• The maximum number of repeater stages that can be inserted into the

path connecting any two nodes is two.

• The node at each end of a segment (including Repeater Units) must have

terminating resistance turned ON.

• The baud rates within each segment must be set to the same value.
