Connecting to a DeviceNet
Network
A DeviceNet network is an arrangement of electrical power and
device distribution. A DeviceNet network is planned and adjusted for
optimal communications.
Before proceeding to add devices, you need to record the following:
• Network data rate
• Network cable system map (topology) to which you are
connecting
• Distances between cable system components
• Device current draw and voltage drop for each device on the
network
• Limitation of the trunk and drop cables
Refer to the table below for recommended trunk and drop lengths.
Refer to the DeviceNet Cable System Planning and Installation
Manual (publication DN-6.7.2) for specific guidance in calculating
and attaching the Ultra3000-DN to a network.
