Connect the Adapter to the
PROFIBUS DP Network
This chapter describes:
• the DP physical layer
• using line types A and B
• equipment you need
• how to connect the adapter to the network
• how to terminate the network
The PROFIBUS network media is a balanced transmission line
corresponding to the standard EIA RS-485, terminated at both ends.
Both line A and line B types are available, depending on your system
requirements.
Specifications and guidelines for DP media:
• linear bus, terminated at both ends
• drop cables (preferably no longer than .30m), no branches
• shielded twisted pair
• max. line length between 100 and 1200m (depending on baudrate
and cable type)
• number of stations: 32
• DP baudrates: 9.6, 19.2, 93.75, 187.5, 500 Kbit/s and 1.5M bit/s
Use the following table to determine what line type will best meet
your needs.
