Expansion
If the maximum output current of the DP/PA coupler is exceeded, you must include
a further DP/PA coupler.
Total Cable
The total cable is the total of the main cable and all the tap lines.
When using a standard PROFIBUS-PA cable with a cross-sectional area of
0.8 mm
2 , the maximum length of the total cable (with a maximum number of field
devices and worst-case positioning at the end of the cable) is as follows:
S
560 m for DP/PA coupler (6ES7 157-0AC00-0XA0)
S 680 m for DP/PA coupler (6ES7 157-0AD80-0XA0)
S
790 m for DP/PA coupler Ex [i] (6ES7 157-0AD00-0XA0)
Tap Line
The maximum permitted tap line lengths are listed in Table 2-2. You should also
remember the maximum length of the total cable (see above).
